Change background of scrollbar container - SyntaxEditor for WPF Forum

Posted 14 years ago by Bradley

I've made the background color of my syntax editor black, have styled the scrollbar itself to my liking, but the container holding the scroll bar is still white. How would you go about changing the color of the container?

Hi Bradley,

It's hard to say with out a sample, as there are several elements at play. Most likely is you'd need to customize the background color of the EditorView. Something like:

<Style TargetType="{x:Type editor:EditorView}">
    <Setter Property="Background" Value="Red" />
</Style>

Alternatively, you can customize it's default brush like so:

<SolidColorBrush x:Key="{x:Static themes:SyntaxEditorCommonDictionary.EditorViewBackgroundBrushKey}" Color="Red" />

If that doesn't help please put together a small sample project that reproduces your issue and email it over then we can take a closer look. Be sure to remove any executables or change the extension of the zip file to ensure it gets past our email filters.

Thanks, customizing that brush did the trick.
