Hi,

I need to place a check-box next to a color box.
The layout should be one of two:

+------------------------------------+
| CLR                        CHK DRP |  
+------------------------------------+

Or:

+------------------------------------+
| CHK CLR                        DRP |  
+------------------------------------+

When
CHK is the check-box
CLR is the color box.
DRP is the drop-down button of the color drop-down.

The only way I came close was this:

+------------------------------------+
| CLR CHK                        DRP |  
+------------------------------------+

How can I switch the places of the color and the check-box?

Thanks,
Ron.

Thanks!
Works great.

Correct - no text only check box, color box and drop-down.
Will try that out...

Yes, you are right. But we assume you are not displaying text in color cells.

Will it true to say that I need to switch rcIcon and rcCheck?

You should override the CExtGridCell::OnCalcLayout() in your color grid cell class. Your method should invoke the parent class method and then you should shift the rectangles computed by default.
