Given:
frm, table, row
Try:
RectangleType invRect;
TblGetItemBounds( table, row, myColumn, &invRect );
you can call again to get size of other columns of interest or call
FrmGetObjectBounds( frm, myTableID, &invRect );
and use the entire width of the table
then call
WinInvertRectangle( &invRect, 0 );
You may also need to defeat the automatic highlighting of the table by
something like:
in the form event handler
case tblSelectEvent:
{
UInt16 row, col;
Boolean selected;
Boolean redrawDone;
Boolean redrawNeeded = false;
// Unhighlight any selection if needed.
tableP = event->data.tblSelect.pTable;
selected = TblGetSelection( tableP, &row, &col );
if ( selected ) {
TblUnhighlightSelection( tableP );
TblMarkRowInvalid( tableP, event->data.tblSelect.row );
redrawNeeded = true;
}
// handle selecting a table item
redrawDone = ItemWasSelected( event, redrawNeeded );
if ( ( redrawNeeded == true )
&& ( redrawDone == false ) ) {
TblRedrawTable( tableP );
}

Subject: Highlighting the whole table row
I have been using a table with 2 columns, and would like to make it so
when the user taps on a row, the whole row gets highlighted, not just that
particular cell. Is there a straightforward way to do this? I'm just
looking for a visual cue, not actual processing of data on the other
column.
Right now I've got it working with a 1 column table, and just doing a
WinDrawChars to draw both the text in column 1, then just making it
appear as if there's a column 2 but setting the x to a number like 120.
Is there a more elegant solution, or is that it?
