Setting background colour of the Line Number margin

[Andrew Truckle]

I am using the HTML lexer at the moment to display XML files.

My application is Visual C++ MFC based so it does not support dark mode or anything.

The line numbers margin is visible, but how do I change the background colour to be subtly different to what it is now? At the moment it is the same as my dialog background, where the control resides.

I am using the CScintillaCtrl wrapper.

Thank you.

Thanks.  I can't seem to find the equivalent in the CScintillaCtrl wrapper. I tried:

m_edit.SetMarginBackN(0, RGB(0, 255, 0));

I had a look at the Scintilla sources again, so I am now trying this:

SetAStyle(static_cast<int>(Scintilla::StylesCommon::LineNumber), RGB(0, 0, 0), RGB(211, 211, 211));

But it still does not work.

My fault. I was calling StyleClearAll which was resetting it.

Andrew,

Please forget MFC. I always use WTL to develop any Win32 application.

Trust me.

Kevin, this is a 20 year old project. MFC isn't going anywhere from it. Although I use more std stuff.
