• Windows Forms TabControl and Menu color settings question

  this is more of a .NET graphics thing, but I can't find any good forum in the .NET section so since I'm using C#, this is where I'm asking. The menu items in and containers don't have a .BackGround or .ForeGround property, is it possible to change their colors Also, I changed the .BackGround and .ForeGround on a TabControl and it did not change the color (should have changed something to Cyan I'd think), I changed the pages as well, and those changed the page color, however the tabs are still a color I don't want (I had System.Drawing.Color.Cyan assigned to the form's this.window_background_color, and I assigned this.window.backgroundcolo ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Console application in 'Running Programs' control panel?

  Hi, When I create a Forms application for Compact Framework, it appears in the Settings->Memory->Running Programs control panel. However, when I create a console application, it does not. Is there a way I can 'register' my application in this way, to indicate if it is still running, and if needed, to kill it Thanks Ilya. I thought it has something to do with having a Form.

• Visual Studio GetMarkerCommandInfo in HTML Editor

  I have a text marker that is implementing a marker context menu by implementing GetMarkerCommandInfo. This works great in ever text editor except the HTML editor, where it never gets called. Is this simply not supported, or are there additional marker registrations needed to have the HTML editor participate Will, It looks like what is going on here is that the HTML editor defines their own context menu and doesn't include the the marker commands on their context menu.  So QueryService never gets called, which in turn doesn't call GetMarkerCommandInfo on your client. You'll need to customize the HTML e ...Show All
