How to have only the bracket highlighting feature without the indentation guidelines in WinForms SyntaxEditor (EditControl)?
2 mins read
Bracket highlighting
The bracket highlighting feature can be turned on by using the ShowIndentationGuidelines and OnlyHighlightMatchingBraces properties in conjunction as shown in code below.
C#
this.editControl1.ShowIndentationGuidelines = true; this.editControl1.OnlyHighlightMatchingBraces = true;
VB
Me.editControl1.ShowIndentationGuidelines = True Me.editControl1.OnlyHighlightMatchingBraces = True
When the OnlyHighlightMatchingBraces property is set to true, only the bracket highlighting occurs, and the indentation guidelines are not displayed.
