How do I programmatically change the color of an entire tree control?

[ccarner]

Searched Google and these forums, but couldn't find an answer. Any help is appreciated.

Create a property node for the tree and set the following properties (in this order)

 

Active Cell.Active Column Number = -2 (this selects all columns)

Active Item.Row Number = -2 (this selects all rows, including the column headers)

Active Cell.Background Color = Desired color

 

You may have to play with it a bit to get everything exactly right, but this should get you started. Set Active Item.Row Number = -1 to color just the column headers. Also remember property nodes are executed top down, this is why order matters

Basically you need 2 more Property nodes if you want to keep your headers color.

 

you must do what QueueYueue said first.

 

Then :

Active Cell.Active Column Number = -2 (this selects all columns)

Active Item.Row Number = -1 (this selects the column headers)

Active Cell.Background Color = Desired color

 

Then :

Active Cell.Active Column Number = -1 (this selects row header)

Active Item.Row Number = -2 (this selects all rows)

Active Cell.Background Color = Desired color
