Changing the ActiveRowAppearance when using the Office2007Blue library
posted

Hi,

I have a screen with 2 grids and when the focus is set on a grid, I would like the active row to have a solid border so that the user knows which grid has the focus.  I have the Office2007Blue style applied to the grid.  Right now, the border style of the active row is Dotted and I would like to know how to set it with the AppStyleList editor so that in my code I will apply that style when the grid has focus.

Thanks

Erwin

    Hi Erwin,

    Are you talking about the border of the row? Because as far as I am aware, there is no change in the row border when a row is active. This is actually not currently possible with AppStylist or any property setting because a row does not draw all 4 sides of it's border. If it did, there would be a double-thick border between each row. Unless you have padding between each row, of course.

    It sounds to me like you are talking about the focus rectangle, not the row border. There's no property to affect the row selector, either, but you could change it using a DrawFilter.
