Hi
So I have a theme and have defined some new Colours and Fonts.
The InitializeComponent code seems to reference these like this:
this.label1.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.FromName(“@CMSToolBarButtonBackgroundHover”);
And that works, it displays in the desired colour.
But when I put the same code in my application, for example in a MouseHover event handler, it returns “{Name=@CMSToolBarButtonBackgroundHover, ARGB=(0, 0, 0, 0)}” which seems right compared to other places, but it has no effect in the UI.
this.MouseHover += (s, ex) =>
{
this.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.FromName(“@CMSToolBarButtonBackgroundHover”);
};
I can change the colour name in InitializeComponent and it changes the initial colour in the UI, I can also change the colour in the event handler to a non-theme colour (eg.FromARGB or Color.Black) but nothing I do in the event handler with the theme defined colour seems to have any effect.
In some cases I can setup buttons and use the theme designer to provide hover effects, but there are instances I need to do this programatically.
Any idea why this doesn’t work ?
Thanks,

I added
“colors”: {
“CMSToolBarButtonBackgroundHover”: “red”
}
to a theme mixin and attached to the mouse hover event like this:
private void Button_MouseHover(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
((Button)sender).BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.FromName(“@CMSToolBarButtonBackgroundHover”);
}
It works here. I also tried to assign a BackColor to the button to something different than the default. Can you reproduce in a small test case?
Thanks,
Luca
