Label Back Color in Ribbon Control

[Andrew Alex Bercot]

I have a menu, I added `toolstriplabel` to create separator titles within the dropdown, but I can't change the backcolor or the font color. How can I do this? Or, if I don't want to use `toolstriplabel`, how can I make the item look like a label so it's not clickable, since the goal is for it to be a title?

Hi Andrew Alex Bercot,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

We’ve prepared a sample demonstrating how to customize the foreground color of a ToolStriplabel inside the dropdown. Additionally, we would like to clarify the following:

• Setting the BackColor of a ToolStripLabel does not always reflect because the rendering is handled by ToolStripEx itself.
• The only way to achieve a visible background color is to change the RenderMode of ToolStripEx to System. However, this will change the entire look of the ToolStrip to a classic, non-themed appearance.
• This behavior is expected even when using ToolStripEx  alone without the Ribbon.

We’ve also prepared a sample that demonstrates changing the RenderMode  of ToolStripEx  to System so you can review the impact.

We hope these details help explain the behavior of ToolStripEx rendering.

Regards,
