Selecting Text and backcolor - SyntaxEditor for Windows Forms Forum

Posted 19 years ago by Todd Richardson - Integration Analyst, Foot Locker

I have read most of the documentation on the SyntaxEditor control and was unable to identify a property to change the highlighting color of selected text. Is there a way to swith the backcolor of selected text from the classic blue to another color?

Thank you.

Right now it's using the system Highlight color however I'll write down to make this an option for the next release.

Thanks for adding this feature. It's good to know some software vendors listen to their customers. Two Thumbs Up!

I agree... Actipro Software is more responsive to their customers than any software vendor I've worked with!

Has this been implemented yet? And if so...what would I have to change to get me rolling along? Thanks in advance.

Yes the SyntaxEditor.Renderer has multiple properties for Selection* that control how it renders.
