.NET Forum / Windows Forms / WinForm Controls / January 2006Black TreeView Control
I have a Tree View control as a menu on my application. The nodes are fixed and created when I write the program. So far as I know this Tree View looks fine on all system but this morning I was told on one system the background color was black and the text is black unless highlighted. There are no icons on the tree and its not overridden. Any suggestion? I am guessing a problem with the video card/driver The display is RAGE XL PCI and the system is set to true color 1024/768. Regard, John Just a guess here. Is it possible you've somehow set the particular TreeView colors to some sort of 'system default' or 'based on themes"? In such a case the color used might depend on the default colors the user sets up for his personal computer. Therefore, it might use black where anyone who never made a change to this would see a different color. This might account for it working as expected on most systems, but using black-black on some machines... This could explain what you're seeing, but it's a real shot-in-the-dark...

On Win2K3 and WinXP this is dark gray but on Win2k its black. I have a feeling that "MenuBar" is not defined in Win2k so its coming up incorrectly. Personnel I would call it a bug but I'm not MS.
