Hi Löwenherz,
this is Vanya's homepage: https://users.freebasic-portal.de/freeb ... index.html. It is in Russian, but there is a button for translation into English. A fantastic collection of FB stuff and tutorials! Go to "Articles -> FreeBasic + API -> Child window - TAB". I am not familiar with Tab controls, but maybe Vanyas article may help you.

What do you mean with "Change the color Background" exactly? You mean the tab control color, background of the tab control or the GUI background color?

Re: Tabcontrol color winmain

Post by Löwenherz »

Yes UEZ thanks for Feedback .. sorry I mean the tab Control how to Change the color If its possible ... I have placed a scintilla Control in the tabcontrol and want to Change the Grey color of the usual tab Control... Would Like to build an Editor step by step

I am Not Sure what's responsible for Tab Control color change

Code: Select all

 [
 
Below wndProc() function
...
WM_CREATE

WM_CTLCOLOR

WM_DRAWITEM

WM_PAINT

....

OK perhaps this way May be better choice for tabcontrol Background color to Change... Found in Powerbasic an old Code snippets dont know If thats correct

I have Got an Error in WM_Notify Part
Code snippets below

Code: Select all

    ' Add tab items for each day of the week
    AddTabItem(hTab, "Monday")
    AddTabItem(hTab, "Tuesday")
    AddTabItem(hTab, "Wednesday")
    AddTabItem(hTab, "Thursday")
    AddTabItem(hTab, "Friday")
    AddTabItem(hTab, "Saturday")
    
 CASE WM_NOTIFY
            DIM lpnm AS NMHDR PTR
            lpnm = lParam
            'error next line  ' htab IS a problem
            'IF lpnm->htab = TCN_CUSTOMDRAW THEN
            '
                DIM lpNMTVCustomDraw AS NMTVCUSTOMDRAW PTR
                lpNMTVCustomDraw = lParam

                    FUNCTION = CDRF_NOTIFYITEMDRAW
                ELSEIF lpNMTVCustomDraw->nmcd.dwDrawStage = CDDS_ITEMPREPAINT THEN
                    lpNMTVCustomDraw->clrTextBk = RGB(255, 100, 100)
                    FUNCTION = CDRF_NEWFONT
