current line indicator - SyntaxEditor for Windows Forms Forum

Posted 19 years ago by phruby

I am designing a debugger simular to visual studio. When I'm tracing thru the code, I would like Syntax editor to display a yellow highlight over the current line to execute with an arrow in the line number margin. How can I create the yellow highlighted text and arrow based on a given line number?

You just create a class that inherits from SpanIndicator. Then implement the DrawGlyph method to draw the arrow and GetHighlightingStyle to return a highlighting style for the text.

Do you have an example of this? I'm new to this stuff.
