Customize the backcolor of selected itemSelectedItem backcolor can be customized while applying Office2007 or Office2010 theme to XPTaskBar. It can be achieved by setting the XPTaskBarBoxActiveHighlightedItemColor property from Office2007 or Office2010ColorTable using reflection. The following code demonstrates the same. C# //Office2007 Visual Style
this.xpTaskBar1.Style = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.XPTaskBarStyle.Office2007;
var ColorTable = xpTaskBar1.GetType().GetProperty("Office2007ColorTable", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance);
dynamic colortable = ColorTable.GetValue(xpTaskBar1, null);
Office2007Colors Office2007ColorTable = colortable;
//Selected XPTaskBarItem BackColor
Office2007ColorTable.XPTaskBarBoxActiveHighlightedItemColor = Color.LightPink;
//Office2010 VisualStyle
this.xpTaskBar1.Style = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.XPTaskBarStyle.Office2010;
var ColorTable = xpTaskBar1.GetType().GetProperty("Office2010ColorTable", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance);
dynamic colortable = ColorTable.GetValue(xpTaskBar1, null);
Office2010Colors Office2010ColorTable = colortable;
//Selected XPTaskBarItem BackColor
Office2010ColorTable.XPTaskBarBoxActiveHighlightedItemColor = Color.LightPink;
VB 'Office2007 Visual Style
Me.xpTaskBar1.Style = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.XPTaskBarStyle.Office2007
Dim ColorTable = xpTaskBar1.GetType().GetProperty("Office2007ColorTable", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic Or System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance)
Dim colortable_Renamed As Object = ColorTable.GetValue(xpTaskBar1, Nothing)
Dim Office2007ColorTable As Office2007Colors = colortable_Renamed
'Selected XPTaskBarItem BackColor
Office2007ColorTable.XPTaskBarBoxActiveHighlightedItemColor = Color. LightPink
'Office2010 VisualStyle
Me.xpTaskBar1.Style = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Tools.XPTaskBarStyle.Office2010
Dim ColorTable = xpTaskBar1.GetType().GetProperty("Office2010ColorTable", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic Or System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance)
Dim colortable_Renamed As Object = ColorTable.GetValue(xpTaskBar1, Nothing)
Dim Office2010ColorTable As Office2010Colors = colortable_Renamed
'Selected XPTaskBarItem BackColor
Office2010ColorTable.XPTaskBarBoxActiveHighlightedItemColor = Color.LightPink
