Hi,
I don't like default white background color, and tried SCI_MARKERSETBACK in the code, but seems it doesn't work. Does anyone can help me show a sample code to let Scintilla set background color as black color?

Thanks

  ::SendMessage(hwndSci, SCI_STYLESETBACK,32,<your RGB colour>)
  
  But it is much easier to change the Preferences -> Styler Configurator -> Globalstyles, default style items.
