Description:

To change the background color and the background type of the window, two controls are required:

To set the color of the window, a material mapping control is called:

view.GetSegmentKey().GetMaterialMappingControl().SetWindowColor(RGBAColor(0.5, 0.5, 0.5));

Building on the previous code snippet, we can also add a second color if the subwindow has a gradient background:

view.GetSegmentKey().GetMaterialMappingControl().SetWindowColor(RGBAColor(0.5, 0.5, 0.5)).SetWindowContrastColor(RGBAColor(1.0, 0.0, 0.0));

To set the background type (solid color, gradient, etc.), a subwindow control is called:

view.GetSegmentKey().GetSubwindowControl().SetBackground(Subwindow::Background::GradientBottomToTop);
