How to change the color of the scrollbar in scintilla?

It seems that coloring Scintilla scrollbars is not possible:

- ScintillaNET

You cannot. Scintilla uses the default system scrollbars, so their style is determined directly by the operating system.

The only way to style them is to modify the code of C++ Scintilla to implement a custom scrollbar, then you could probably compile the modified library to use it in ScintillaNET.

- Notepad++ (uses Scintilla)

Afaik you can not change the color easily.

The only option is to change it system-wide.

Perhaps a creative mind like RASHAD might be able to find a solution for you!
