Changing Background Color of the Navigation Pane?

[justin393]

Does anyone know how to change the background color of the Navigation Pane (see attached image)?  I'm new to Windows Style Builder, have watched videos and tried a number of different things that have all been unsuccessful so I was hoping someone might be able to direct me to exactly where I need to go to accomplish changing this background color.  Thanks in advance for the help!

Try
Explorer & Shell > Explorer > ProperTree > <2> Fillcolorhint:color

That works!  Thanks for the help Jerry!  Do you know if there's a way to tweak the font color in that pane as well?  Just realized text is difficult to see once I added a dark background.

Main text color is Fonts, Colors, & System Metrics > Fonts & System Metrics > WINDOWTEXT:COLOR

( You can change this by going into the shellstyle UIfile and changing the foreground of ProperTreeHost to any color you like. For example foreground="argb(255, 0, 255, 0)" would make it green.)

The other text colors for various states are at Explorer & Shell > Explorer > TreeView > TreeItem > Hot, Selected, SelectedNotFocus, HotSelected and Disabled.
