How do I programmatically change the color of an entire tree control?

Any help is appreciated.

Hi Chris,

which color do you want to change?

Did you try property nodes?

Looking at the property nodes available I would have guessed it was Cell Background Color, but that is only for one cell.  You could iterate over all rows, and all columns, but this gives an error if there is no data there.  It might not be possible to do at run-time.

You can make use of property node (Active cell background colour) but you will have to put logic to change active cell position from first row first column to last row last column.

Use a property node.  Set the "Active Item:Row Number" to -2 (all rows).  Set the "Active Cell:Active Column Number" to -2 (all columns). Set the "Active Cell:Background Color" to the desired color.
