Style does not seem to apply

[JoshWobbles]

Trying to create the control in XAML, I have set the lexer to Cpp but no syntax highlighting seems to occur. Just a generic white textbox.

<sc:ScintillaWPF Content="{Binding value, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" Height="300" Lexer="Cpp"/>

Don't think it works that way. Take a look at InitSyntaxColoring in MainWindow.xaml.cs:

` private void InitSyntaxColoring(ScintillaWPF ScintillaNet)
{
// Configure the default style
ScintillaNet.StyleResetDefault();
ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Default].Font = "Consolas";
ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Default].Size = 10;
ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Default].BackColor = IntToColor(0x212121);
ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Default].ForeColor = IntToColor(0xFFFFFF);
ScintillaNet.StyleClearAll();

        // Configure the CPP (C#) lexer styles
        ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Cpp.Identifier].ForeColor = IntToColor(0xD0DAE2);
        ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Cpp.Comment].ForeColor = IntToColor(0xBD758B);
        ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Cpp.CommentLine].ForeColor = IntToColor(0x40BF57);
        ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Cpp.CommentDoc].ForeColor = IntToColor(0x2FAE35);
        ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Cpp.Number].ForeColor = IntToColor(0xFFFF00);
        ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Cpp.String].ForeColor = IntToColor(0xFFFF00);
        ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Cpp.Character].ForeColor = IntToColor(0xE95454);
        ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Cpp.Preprocessor].ForeColor = IntToColor(0x8AAFEE);
        ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Cpp.Operator].ForeColor = IntToColor(0xE0E0E0);
        ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Cpp.Regex].ForeColor = IntToColor(0xff00ff);
        ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Cpp.CommentLineDoc].ForeColor = IntToColor(0x77A7DB);
        ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Cpp.Word].ForeColor = IntToColor(0x48A8EE);
        ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Cpp.Word2].ForeColor = IntToColor(0xF98906);
        ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Cpp.CommentDocKeyword].ForeColor = IntToColor(0xB3D991);
        ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Cpp.CommentDocKeywordError].ForeColor = IntToColor(0xFF0000);
        ScintillaNet.Styles[ScintillaNET.Style.Cpp.GlobalClass].ForeColor = IntToColor(0x48A8EE);

        ScintillaNet.Lexer = Lexer.Cpp;

        ScintillaNet.SetKeywords(0, "class extends implements import interface new case do while else if for in switch throw get set function var try catch finally while with default break continue delete return each const namespace package include use is as instanceof typeof author copy default deprecated eventType example exampleText exception haxe inheritDoc internal link mtasc mxmlc param private return see serial serialData serialField since throws usage version langversion playerversion productversion dynamic private public partial static intrinsic internal native override protected AS3 final super this arguments null Infinity NaN undefined true false abstract as base bool break by byte case catch char checked class const continue decimal default delegate do double descending explicit event extern else enum false finally fixed float for foreach from goto group if implicit in int interface internal into is lock long new null namespace object operator out override orderby params private protected public readonly ref return switch struct sbyte sealed short sizeof stackalloc static string select this throw true try typeof uint ulong unchecked unsafe ushort using var virtual volatile void while where yield");

    }

In some of my other projects, I load that data from text files like how SciTE does it. I plan to add those into this project at some point because it has a simple custom lexer.
