Background color of readonly areas. - SyntaxEditor for Windows Forms Forum

Hi,
I have an editor with some readonly areas.
I just want to set the background color of this readonly areas to white, instead of the default light-gray. I tried this:

VisualStudio2005SyntaxEditorRenderer r = editor.Renderer as VisualStudio2005SyntaxEditorRenderer;
r.TextAreaBackgroundFill = Color.White;

but this property is readonly.
Is it possible to accomplish that?

Thanks.
Giulio

Hi Giulio,

The ReadOnlySpanIndicator constructor has an overload where you can set the background color. That's what you'd want to use to change it to white or probably a better value of transparent.
