Title: How to change treelist font colors in explorer?
Post by: link6155 on February 24, 2013, 12:07:35 am
Hey everyone,

I've been trying to change the font color in the explorer's treelist, but the colors doesn't seem to be applying to it. The color does however apply to other applications.

This is what I'm referring to:

btw check to see if your Fonts, Colors, & System Metrics > Fonts & System Metrics > HOTTRACKING:COLOR is 0, 0,0. If so change it to  something like 1,0,0. This has been known to keep the textcolors from changing in various tree view states

Another option:
To  make propertree normal textcolor  be editable at  -  Explorer & Shell > Explorer > TreeView > TreeItem > Normal  
   open your  theme's  shellstyle in a resouce editor and locate this block of text in the UIFILE:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Code: xml
ProperTreeHost

font="IconFont"

background="themeable(gtc(PROPERTREE, 2, 0, 3802),  window)"

foreground="windowtext"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Edit    foreground="windowtext"     to read like this  :>

Code: xml
foreground="themeable(gtc(Explorer::Treeview, 1, 1, 3803), windowtext)" 

Save the file.

Now in  WSB  add a textcolor to   >  Explorer & Shell > Explorer > TreeView > TreeItem > Normal
