How do you change the colour of the application menu header?
I can change the footer colour using the following property:
ultraToolbarsManager1.Ribbon.ApplicationMenu.FooterToolbar.Settings.Appearance.BackColor

Hello Dave,
That portion of the Application Menu is the ApplicationMenuHeader, and unfortunately the UltraToolbarsManager does not expose an Appearance property to customize it's rendering. However, if you are using our Application Styling framework, it is stylable using the ApplicationMenuHeader UIRole.
Additionally, you can change the styling of this UIElement using a DrawFilter that simply changes the AppearanceData.BackColor for the ApplicationMenuHeaderUIElement. I've attached a simple sample that demonstrates this exact behavior.
Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks,
Chris
Thanks for the workaround. Any likelihood of exposing the HeaderToolbar settings? I was banging my head over this for a while until I found this thread.
Hello,
It seems like adding an appearance property to the ApplicationMenu for the Header would be a relatively simple thing to add. I'm not sure why it wasn't added in the past. Perhaps to minimize bloat to the API. Anyways, if you enter support ticket, one of our staff can write up to be added in an upcoming release.
Thanks,
