Hi,


I would like to know how to change the colors of the selection in the grid.


Right now, when I click on a row to select it, the row turns blue with a white dotted line surrounding it. Is it possible to change the filling color and the white dotted line? Thank you again

You can override the CExtScrollItemWnd::OnSiwDrawFocusRect() virtual method in your CExtGridWnd-derived class and draw your own style dotted focus rectangle.
You can override the CExtScrollItemWnd::OnSiwGetSysColor() virtual method and return different colors for the COLOR_HIGHLIGHT and COLOR_HIGHLIGHTTEXT to change the selected text/background colors.
You can override the CExtScrollItemWnd::OnSiwGetReadOnlyTextColor() and CExtScrollItemWnd::OnSiwGetReadOnlyBackgroundColor() virtual methods to change the colors of read-only elements.
You can override the CExtGridBaseWnd::OnGbwQueryGridLinesColor() virtual method to change the grid lines color.
The CExtGridCell::TextColorSet() and CExtGridCell::BackColorSet() methods allow you to assign various text and background colors to individual grid cells.
