I agree with your taste:-) In fact, we originally used alternate color that looks really good and I love it. This is the case in "most" scenario except those contains so many columns and rows in a limited sized LB. This would make it so cramped. Finally, we have 2 desgins - one with alternate color for LB with only few columns or the LB could be spared with more space on screen, mostly in accounting module. The rest stay with non-alternate-color approach.
The conclusion are result of votes from our engineers and a few of our major clients. Afterall, we are company of democracy ..... except on pricing:-) Alan Chan 4D iNug Technical <4d_tech@lists.4d.com> writes: >really no alternating color?? >it makes reading the listboxes SOOOOO much easier. > >I use a pale green and white (like the old tractor fed paper), but let my >users select their own color if they desire. >If they pick something like BRIGHT ELECTRIC RED they are the ones to have to >live with it :) >(I do have reset to default color button) for when the users make it too >bright to look at. :) > > >> Hi Keith, >> >> Good trick.
