v17 Beta 1 Row Color Bug

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

   In XTP V17 Beta 1, setting the color of a report control AND making it bold will cause the color to be lost.
For example, if I override GetItemMetrics for a report record and do this:

pDrawArgs->pItem->SetTextColor(COLORREF_BLUE);

... then the report row will render in the expected color (blue in this case).

However, if I do this:

pDrawArgs->pItem->SetTextColor(COLORREF_BLUE);
pDrawArgs->pItem->SetBold(TRUE);

... then the report row will be displayed in a bold font, but will NOT be rendered in blue. So it seems we can have one or the other, but not both, which is a bug.

This combination worked fine in the v16.3.0 release.

Regards,

Mark R.

	This is broke in the 16.4 as well. I need this to work, however I can not use BETA software. Please advise how I can patch 16.4 to fix this. UPDATE While I was able to Create and Set my own font to handle this bug in the control, I still would like to know how I can patch 16.4 to fix this broken feature. Glaring bug is Glaring bug.
