Re: Gridline for header in Listbox

2017-11-11 Thread Alan Chan via 4D_Tech
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:-)

 On Mac, there’s horizontal line for header automatically which 
 looks good. However, on Windows 10, no line for header which looks 
 odd...

Hi Keith,

Good trick. For the moment, we didn't use zebra stripes for other reasons. We 
might simply draw a line under the header for Windows 10 users with Miyako's 
approach.

Alan, I noticed this too - it does look odd - and I couldn’t find a command to 
do it, so I found a work-around…

Because my listboxes have the zebra stripes (every 2nd row has a light grey 
background), I simply reversed the order of the row colour in the design window 
- the grey ones now come first so there “seems” to be a header border.
HTH, Keith

I never thought of adding a line there. Smart:-)

Thanks.
