I've implemented a list using a drawing callback function.
When first displaying the form, the first item in the list
is drawn with an inverse highlight close around the letters,
like this:
| [ITEM 1] |
| ITEM 2 |
| ITEM 3 |
If I tap anywhere else on the list, the selected item is
highlighted all the way across the list, and the first item
gets garbage highlighting, like this:
|[]ITEM 1[ ]|
|[ ITEM 2 ]|
| ITEM 3 |
(legend: | - list box border, [ - start highlighting, ] - end highlighting)
How do I get the first item to be highlighted all the way
across the first time, so that it behaves properly when the
OS attempts to remove the highlighting?
btw: is there any way to determine, when your list item drawing
callback function is called, whether it is drawing a highlighted
item or a "normal" item? It seems as if the OS must set up the
foreground & background colors for you before calling the drawing
function, but if you wanted to override the default visual behavior
you would have to know...
