WinForm App with Themed Menus - Setting background for active menu
I'm developing a WinForm app that has an MDI with a menu strip and some menus.
The app has to be themable so the user can choose their own background colour, font colour and font.
I'm having a bit of a problem theming the menu that is currently dropped down. I've been using the backcolor property and set it for both the menu and the menu.DropDown 开发者_JAVA技巧but its still not changing the colour of the background nor the part of the menu item that contains the image for that menuitem.
anyone got any ideas?

I had a great time with the Krypton Suite from ComponentFactory. Theres a huge set of highly customizable controls for free. The Ribbon and the docking suite costs a few dollars, but they're worth the money. The cool thing: You can make your own skins by defining some colors. I made a few and posted it into the ComponentFactory-Forum
Good luck!
