Unable to set color of the close buttons on a tab

[Jeffrey]

Hi,

I am using the Office2016Colorful theme as my template but I seem to be unable to change the color of the close buttons on the tabs in the TabControlAdv.

Am I overlooking something? I tried setting various parameters but it never shows any difference,

Hi Jeffrey,

Thanks for contacting syncfusion support,

We have checked the reported query that “Change the close button Back color“ from our side. We have prepared to achieve the requirement by using the ShowCloseButtonHighLightBackColor and CloseButtonBackColor property. Please find the sample and code snippet below,

Code Snippet: 

tabControlAdv1.ShowCloseButtonHighLightBackColor = true;
tabControlAdv1.CloseButtonBackColor = Color.LightYellow; 

Sample: https://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/forum/168419/ze/CloseButtonColor1687916913

Please try with the above sample and let me know your concerns. We are happy to assist you.

Regards,

Hi Sudharsan,

I have a bit of progress now yes, However I am not able to set the CloseButtonForeColor. It keeps resetting to 225, 225, 225.

For example, I'd like to have the ActiveTabColor just plain White with a Black 'X'

If I test something like this,

tabControl.CloseButtonBackColor = Color.Red;

tabControl.CloseButtonForeColor = Color.Black;

tabControl.CloseButtonHoverForeColor = Color.Black;

tabControl.CloseButtonPressedForeColor = Color.Black;

It does not show any effect only the CloseButtonBackColor works.
