Is there any way to change the color of the auto-completion menu in ZeroBrane (v1.90)?
I have tried all the Tomorrow themes but it seems that the auto-completion menu in all of them is dark text on dark blur background. That does not fit my eyes at all, I cannot read what is highlighted.
This doesn't seem to be possible, as this is the only window controlled by Scintilla (an editor component used in the IDE) that doesn't provide a method to change its colors. See this discussion for details (this is related to Notepad++, but it's using the same editor component).
It may be possible to change by switching the color scheme in the OS or the window manager.
I'm developing a Universal Windows App in VS2015 (C#, XAML).
I have an AppBarButton on a RelativePanel, The panel's background is black.
When I move the mouse over the button (Hover), it turns black with a darkgray background, which is not visible on a dark background:
Please tell me how to change the colors for the button in all mouse states: hover, mousedown,...etc.
Thank you
You need to create custom style template for button to overwrite the hover effect and behaviour.
Please open the button in Blend by using Edit A copy and then edit its template! you might need to remove some element.
Mostly it shall be a button as the property of changing color is exhibited by a button control
I am making an application using VB.NET 2010 and I have set a background image which flickers every time I open any new Form or hit tab for jumping from textbox to textbox
By pressing (tab) it only flickers once but always flicker when ever I close the form and open again.
I have tried everything; background image set to, STRETCHED, CENTRE, ZOOM but still it's the same.
Only thing is when I remove my background all is well, can you help me; what could be the reason of this?
Screenshot is attached please have look
You could try setting the form's DoubleBuffered property to True. However, by looking at your screenshot, it seems like you'd be better off just using a PictureBox control to contain the image.
Using Visual Studio 2005 (vb.net) (windows forms) on Windows XP, I have a standard Microsoft TabControl.
A button click adds/removes an image from 1 of the Tabs.
Seems like the image is placed OVER my tab's text, making it unreadable.
Why isn't it like it should be: Image on the left. Followed by text on the right.
Why is the image being placed OVER my tab's text? Do I need to do some kind of "refresh" or "redraw" before it will appear as it should?
I don't see any way to "make the image appear on the left edge of the tab". (NOT the tab-page.) ... and then place the text just to the right of the image. (Just like a normal image+text tab can do.)
The code is pretty simple, it just gets an image from my ImageList:
cfgTab.ImageKey = "PadLockClosed.png" ' Show CLOSED PadLock
The tab's text changes from:
This is my tab text
to:
T(IMAGE HERE)is my tab text
The image appears OVER the beginning of my text. But if I move to another tab, then move back, the image appears in the correct position:
(IMAGE HERE) This is my tab text
You can use docking and anchoring on your Control property so it will be placed according on what you want it to display.

i have my button:
completely trasparent, text in white.
But when i click it, the background goes white and the text black, and it seems to move up :-|
i want only execute the action, i don't want those strange effects. any ideas? thanks!
That's the default behaviour of Button control,
if you want to avoid it you have some options:
Use another control like textBlock and use OnMouseLeftButtonDown/Up
Customize the template of your button: See the link bellow, this is default style of a button, you can copy/paste the Template part and modify it as you want. (You need to play with different visual states)
