PreviewItem TextColor

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I'm trying to give PreviewItem text a different forecolor, and it works by setting PreviewItemColor, except when a row has focus, then the text is always HighlightRowForecolor. I've got HideSelection = True, and I've set the Highlight and SelectedRow fore & backcolors to the same as Forecolor and Backcolor, so I don't need the PreviewItem color to change from what I've set in PreviewItemColor ever.

I've also tried setting Item.Forecolor in DrawPreviewItem, but it doesn't help (yes, I've called SetCustomDraw with DrawPreviewItem)

Is there anyway to get the PreviewItem forecolor to be the same whether or not the row has focus/is selected?

	I can determine that the PreviewItem is being drawn in BeforeDrawRow because the Item.Index = -1, but setting Metrics.Forecolor doesn't have an effect if the row is selected.
