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).
How can I Override a Label ForeColor and Font ? For example , the standard label comes with ForeColor = Color.Black and I want it to start with some rgb color . Same for the Font , i want to change it's default Font to another .

View 17 RepliesThe title says it all, I'm having some difficulties with the combobox, The items in the list are "Black & Green" - Black will be the Backcolor of a Text box, and Green will be the Forecolor.The App I made is just a Mimic of a CMD, and replicates the output of the command into the Textbox. It's 100% complete, but I'd love it to have the ability to have different colors to choose rather than White and Black.

I would like to somehow override the "GotFocus" and "LosFocus" event of the textbox.
Here's the deal. I have big registration form with +- 200 TextBoxes and I want the one that has focus to be highlighter [e.g. let's say change the background color to yellow]. I know, I could write the same code for 200 TextBoxes, but that would be time-killing and I'm really not in favour writing the same thing 200 times as well as with such a huge amount of copy-paste I'm almost sure I would make mistake somewhere.

View 11 RepliesI'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
Is it possible to change the ForeColor of all the labels on a form at runtime, including the form which is yet to be called? So that all the labels have the same color throughout the app.
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)
Me.ForeColor = Color.FromArgb(100, 255, 255, 255)
The result of any of these two lines is exactly the same ( no change in alpha ). The colors take ok though.

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. Is it possible to change the text's forecolor of the second tab page to blue and keep the text's forecolor of the first page as black? e.g., Products is in black and Support is in Blue.
