Change windows forms background color pragmatically

Rumon Kumar Prosad

Hi,

I have a project which I developed using C#.net winforms and it contains 30 forms. Now I want to change the background color of each window from a setup interface. I want a simple way to change background color instead of writing code each forms .cs class.

One solution, you may want to try is to have a parent class which inherits the form class and have a property which handles the background property of the forms and each of your forms needs to inherit parent class.
Also, having single property would make your task easy to handle the form colors.
Try out that if that helps.
