I am using a tree view as my main menu in RB9.1, prior to this I used Group bars in 7.6. I assigned a component ID to the sub-nodes that they wanted to be highlighted, but I cannot seem to find a property command that would allow me to change the color or font of that sub-node. For the time being I added an image next to those Items, and removed the images from the others, but my users are not quite sold on it. Is there a property command that I am not seeing that will allow me to control a sub-node's caption, color, or font ? If not, anyone have any work around suggestions? Frank, Here's the syntax for PROPERTY command to dynamically change the FONT COLOR as well as background COLOR of the Tree View Nodes and Sub-Items. Syntax: -- Changing Tree View Node or Sub-Item Font Color PROPERTY <TreeViewNodeORSubItemComponentID> FONT_COLOR 'WHITE' -- Changing Tree View Node or Sub-Item Background Color PROPERTY <TreeViewNodeORSubItemComponentID> COLOR 'RED' While in form designer, you may also customize the Font Color as well as Background Color of the Tree View Nodes/Sub-Items using the Tree View control Properties panel. Here's how: 01. Start R:BASE eXtreme 9.1 (32/64) Build: 9.1.5.11124 or higher 02. CONNECT RRBYW17 03. Database Explorer | External Forms | RRBYW17 04. Form Designer | Tree View Control | Object Properties | Nodes Notice the additional panel [Node Colors] http://www.razzak.com/tips/TreeView_Node_Properties.jpg Now you may customize the Node or Sub-Item Font Color and Background Color. http://www.razzak.com/tips/TreeView_Node_Colors.jpg That's all there is to it! Have fun highlighting some specific item(s) in you main menu! Very Best R:egards, Razzak.
