TStringGrid RowHighlight color
« on: April 10, 2019, 07:11:52 pm »
Is there a way to set the highlight color for the RowHighlight option.  At runtime, when I click on a cell in a row it is indeed highlighted, but the color is not much different from the row above it and makes it difficult to spot the highlighted row.

Not sure, but I know you can manually paint the color you want. Maybe you can try this:

It may not suit your needs, but there is a (public) SelectedColor property.

Since it is not published you have to set it in code.

I tried the 'SelectedColor' property but there was no change when I clicked on a cell (the row changed slightly in color to indicate it was selected but not the color I had specified).

I'll try the manual paint method suggested above.

Thanks guys,

Actually, the SelectedColor property does work.  I forgot to check thee goRowSelect option.
