DataGrid Highlight Bar goes gray

[townsend]

Why does the Highligh Bar sometimes goes gray, like this:

When it is usually a dark blue, like this:

It works fine, either way, but if possible,
I'd like to keep this from happening.

No answer to this but I do notice that only happens when you click outside the dg into say a text field.
Is that when it happens for you?

If that's the case, then it is the 'selection maintained, but control not active' highlight, rather than the 'control active' highlight.

Yep, one is hilited and datagrid has focus,
the other one hilited but no focus on the datagrid.

The thing is, it's not just when the DataGrid doesn't have focus.
Clicking from line to line, the highlight bar moves fine. It just
stays gray. I think this is a minor bug in the DataGrid.

I had another problem with the DataGrid a while back. I tried
deleting it and creating a new DataGrid with the same name.
Problem solved. Seems here too, it has corrected the problem.

I did get this far. It happens after this line of code:

Code: Select all

dispatch deleteLIne to group "myGrid" with theline

This is from my v4.0 of my CRUD SQLite Example. And-- just in case
anyone wants to mess with this, I did make a backup before deleting
and recreating the DataGrid. I'll post it here, but it's not important.

Thanks four your input guys!

I have experienced this also. I am using Windows 7, don't know if it is a Windows OS thing only or not.

I think I have an good clue here. It looks like a minor bug.
I commented out this line of code, thinking maybe I didn't need it.

Code: Select all

set the dgfocus  of group myGrid to true

Then the persistent gray Highlight Bar problem returned.
So I removed the comment on that line of code. And the strange
thing was, the persistent gray Highlight Bar problem remained.

Of course, when I deleted the DataGrid and recreated a new one
by the same name, the problem was corrected.
