QTable and selection color
Message 1 in thread
Hello.
I'm using qt-3.x and I have implemented a table which changes the
color of the text in the cells according the state of the application.
If I select a row I'v got the dark blue bar with white
text but that's not what I want. The color of the text should not be
changed and the color of the selection bar should be much lighter or
any other color like light gray or something like that.
I've don't find any information about changing the selection color.
So how can I change this behaviour.
Thanks in advance
Wolfgang

Just change the HighlightedText value for selected text cells and the
Highlight property for selected background cells on your table's
palette. This will give you control over colors.

Hello,
thanks for the answer. But how can change the highlighted text of one row.
Not every row of the table changes the color of the text in the cells, so the
HighlightedText property doesn't work for me because it will set for
the whole table,
isn't it?
And QTableItem doesn't provide a function to change the palette, at
least I didn't found in the class description.
Thanks in advance
Wolfgang

Ok, now I realize what you want.

You're right.

That's a hard reality. QTableItem can't help much.
Well, if you want to change the color for individual rows I suggest you
to modify paintCell() and check in if the row you're about to paint you
want in a different color. As you can see, this function receive a
QColorGroup arg that uses to paint the cell. In my case, I modify this
colorgroup to change textcolor for two special rows in my table. Of
course you may need what rows you want with different color.
Hope this helps you,
Javier
