Property Value

Type	Description
AppearanceObject

A AppearanceObject object which provides the appearance setting used to paint the editor when it’s disabled.

Remarks

The editor is disabled when its Enabled property is set to false. Use the AppearanceDisabled property to specify the background and foreground colors and the font settings used to paint the disabled editor and its contents.

The appearance settings of the enabled editor are specified by the RepositoryItem.Appearance property.

For more information on appearances, see the Application Appearance and Skin Colors document.

Important

In Advanced Mode or when the WXI Skin is applied, use the Appearance.BackColor property to specify the editor’s background color. Other appearance settings that specify the background color of the editor in different states are ignored (for example, the AppearanceReadOnly.BackColor, AppearanceFocused.BackColor, AppearanceDisabled.BackColor).
