Title: FF3 - ListView Text And Text Background Colouring
Post by: SeaVipe on July 15, 2019, 07:56:39 PM

Does anyone know if a ListView control can have different coloured Text And Text Background based on Items?
The 3 below work properly but they set colours for the entire ListView control not individual Items like Rows or Cells:

Code Select



    '' Text
    ListView_SetTextColor(HWND_FORM1_LISTVIEW1, CLR_NONE) ' Windows text colour.
    '' Grid
    ListView_SetTextBkColor(HWND_FORM1_LISTVIEW1, &HBCB772 )
    '' The BackGround, behind everything
    ListView_SetBkColor(HWND_FORM1_LISTVIEW1, &HD25FDC)

I've been on the Microsoft site looking into all the various ListView API commands but nothing looks as though it will do what I want.
(If not then I'll dig a bit deeper into James Klutho's GRD (very nice) which I've yet to figure out how to get onto a FF3 or WinFBE form.)

Thanks.

No. Windows controls do what they do and, when you want something different, you have to make them owenerdraw and paint them by yourself.
