Change the color of the Scroll Bar in "Map mode" - Visual Studio 2015


How can I change the color of Visual Studio's scroll bar when it's in map mode? This is picture of what it looks like for me right now.

Basically, I just need to make the colors transparent so they blend in with the background. This used to be part of Productivity Power Tools, and I remember you could change the colors in those settings. But in Visual Studio 2015 it's been built into the IDE and there's no obvious settings for the colors.

I am also using the Color Theme Editor extension, but if the color setting is editable from there, I can't find it.

I know it's possible to change these colors because I've changed it before (my colors got reset recently). Does anyone know where these settings are?


Solution

  • The colors are changeable using the Color Theme Editor extension by changing the "Text Editor -> Overview" colors. Specifically "Text Editor -> Overview background -> Background" and "Text Editor -> Overview visible -> Background".
