How Can I change the color of the Text on TabPage?
0
What properties need to be applied to change the forecolor and backcolor of the text on Tabpage?

Here is my Code:
$TabControl_Main = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.TabControl
$TabControl_Main.Location = New-Object System.Drawing.Size(20,550)
$TabControl_Main.Size = New-Object System.Drawing.Size(850,270)
$form_MainForm.Controls.Add($TabControl_Main)
$TabPage1 = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.TabPage
$TabPage1.Location = New-Object System.Drawing.Size(20,550)
$TabPage1.Size = New-Object System.Drawing.Size(850,270)
$TabPage1.Text = "Processes"
$TabControl_Main.Controls.Add($TabPage1)

You have to create an event and draw the area. Here is some code based on this example in c#, credits @Fun Mun Pieng.
# assign a color for each tab
$PageColor = @{0 = "lightgreen";
1 = "yellow";
2 = "lightblue"}
# define the event
$tabControl_Drawing = {
param([object]$Sender, [System.EventArgs]$e)
$Background = new-object Drawing.SolidBrush $PageColor[$e.Index]
$Foreground = new-object Drawing.SolidBrush black
$tabGraphics = $e.Graphics
$tabBounds = $e.Bounds
$tabGraphics.FillRectangle($Background,$tabBounds)
$tabTextSize = $tabGraphics.MeasureString($sender.TabPages[$e.Index].text, $e.Font)
$tabGraphics.DrawString($Sender.TabPages[$e.Index].Text,$e.Font,$Foreground,$tabBounds.Left + ($tabBounds.Width - $tabTextSize.Width) / 2,$tabBounds.Top + ($tabBounds.Height -$tabTextSize.Height) / 2 +1)
$e.DrawFocusRectangle()
}
# add the event
$TabControl_Main.add_DrawItem($tabControl_Drawing)
A little easier to use is HotTrack:
$TabControl_Main.HotTrack = $true
You will see the effect when you execute your script with powershell instead of powershell ISE.
BackColor does nothing. To use the words of MSDN:
BackColor > This member is not meaningful for this control.
edit: added the code.
