have you tried -showselalways => 1 ?
I mean, when you create $ListView:
$ListView = $Window->AddListView(
# stuff...
-showselalways => 1,
);
the default behaviour for ListViews and TreeViews is to highlight
the selection only when the control has focus. with -showselalways
you can tell the control to always show the selection (although
it will be kind of black-on-gray, not your-favorite-highlight-color).
cheers,
Aldo
