❔ Trying to make a scroll bar look better
Trying to make a scroll bar transparent or at least not visible but still functional using my mouse wheel without hovering over it. The vscrollbar is already linked to a panel and works but since windows forms doesn't have freaking properties for changing fore and back color I'm at a loss. which is also kind of a let down tbh. also using c# windows forms and also have no idea what I'm doing

also to note I tried making the bars width 0 but without a way to make it scroll without hovering over it, won't do me any good also scrolling is super slow
You'll want to use WPF
windows forms has little to no customizability that isn't extremely painful
Well damn I really don't want to restart my whole project I been working on for last two weeks
You'd have to make a custom control in winforms then
most likely
Hmm
example https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/41869/Custom-Drawn-Scrollbar
winforms is good for rapid prototyping
like a quick visual enterprise tool
if you want custom logic or behaviors you're paying out the nose for either custom control suites with money, or with time to create custom controls that do exactly what you want.
