I've got a theme system in my program that works excellently. The only issue I'm running into with it is that the Forecolor of the menustrip and statusstrip remain at the default white. Even when I add in a button to change it manually for debugging, nothing happens and it remains white. There's no code that would change it, and I've replaced the menustrip just in case something was wrong with the control, but no dice.
I even tested it in another project, and it worked fine. Within my theme designed, the preview menustrip's forecolor changes fine as well. Something's wrong and is making it so that I can't change the menustrip/statusstrip's forecolor :I

I've found my life greatly eased by having given up on ListView. DataGridView is by far the better way to go. I wish I listened early on to the suggestion of someone here who recommended it. Chalk up another failure to my stubbornness.However, while I can set the ForeColor of an individual cell using GridV.Item(a, b).Style.ForeColor,[code]All these work without a hitch. But when I want to set the text of a given column to a desired color, GridV.Columns(a).DefaultCellStyle.ForeColor is completely ignored.Upon investigating further, I discovered that exactly the same behavior as described above is also true for setting the text and back color for Rows.If I have to, I'll succumb to using GridV.Item(a, b).Style.ForeColor, though this adds unnecessary complication to the code. But I'd like to know why I'm unable to set the text color of a column or row programmatically and get that working.

I have been experimenting with my windows form application(vb 2008/10) and made sure that the top part(glass part) extended to become a bit larger.
Now 1 problem occurs. Everything, like text, which is black, will become transparent so unreadable. With labels and pictures, I solved the problem, I just write a string(e.graphics.drawstring) and for labels / titles I use a long method(not important).

View 2 RepliesI've been tingling with the colors of listviewitems.For the most part, they work great, but I can't set alpha:
Me.BackColor = Color.FromArgb(100, 40, 40, 40)
Me.ForeColor = Color.FromArgb(1, 255, 255, 255)
Me.BackColor = Color.FromArgb(100, 40, 40, 40)

Is there an "easy" way to change a control's ForeColor when it is diabled? Yes, I know that this goes against the Windows standard.
On our forms, we have buttons with a dark blue background and a white foreground (the design is dictated by marketing). When the buttons become disabled, the ForeColor goes to a dark color making the button unreadable.
I declare 2 tab pages and add them to a tab control. These 2 tab pages have different texts: Products and Support and the text's forecolor is black.
