Change background colour of LineNumber column #513

Closed Dinoosawruss closed 3 years ago

Hi,

I am trying to change the background colour of the LineNumber column in the below Scintilla but have so far been unsuccessful image

Any assistance would be appreciated

This doesn't seem to be possible if I read the Scintilla.org instructions correctly; the margin changes into a symbol margin:

scintilla.Margins[0].Type = MarginType.Color;
scintilla.Margins[0].BackColor = Color.OrangeRed;

But I'm not sure with such a short test 🙄

Seemingly I was wrong: This works:

scintilla.Styles[Style.LineNumber].BackColor = Color.OrangeRed;
scintilla.Styles[Style.LineNumber].ForeColor = Color.BlueViolet;

@VPKSoft hmm I tried what you did and it didn't work? I'll test it again and see

EDIT: Somehow it appears to now work, thanks for the help
