Tip of the Day #2: Using Zebra Stripes in ListView Control

Supported Versions:

R:BASE 7.6 for Windows (Build: 7.6.2.31003 or higher ...)
R:BASE 7.6 (C/S:I) for Windows (Build: 7.6.2.31003 or higher)
R:BASE Turbo V-8 for Windows (Build: 8.0.16.31003 or higher)

Did you know that now you can totally customize the Variable
Lookup ListView control in a form to display Zebra Stripes
and custom column titles?

The latest builds of R:BASE 7.6 and Turbo V-8 include added
properties to support Zebra Stripes as well as the options
to select Background Color and Font Color for Column Titles.

For Zebra Stripes in ListView:

Form Designer | ListView Control | Object Property | Effects
Check the option for Zebra Stripe and then select the Odd and
Even colors.

For Custom Column Headers in ListView:

Form Designer | ListView Control | Object Property | Columns
Select the column and then define the Background Color and
Font Color.

Using these added properties and options, you can customize
the ListView controls to your heart's content.
