Hello, I am using a Property Grid and I need the Grid Items to be disabled but the problem is that when set to disabled they are shown in light grey and are not very well readable. Is there any way to change the foreground color of these disabled items to another color, black for example?

Thanks.

Not sure about the MFC version but for the active-x version (using WTL) you can go like this:

spPropertyGridSettings->ColorManager->SetColor( STDCOLOR_GRAYTEXT, 0x004080 );

where 0x000000 would be black...

I have the same question, but can't seem to find a solution that works within the MFC version of XTP.

VAGB, just wondering if you were able to find a solution?

I am now focused on other questions so I have not tried anything about it.

As soon as I find anything useful I�ll write it back.

Did you try ViewReadOnlyForeColor property?

Hi Oleg,

I can't find any reference to "ViewReadOnlyForeColor" anywhere in XTP Professional documentation or in the source code files. I believe we're both using the MFC version of the XTP library.

Am I missing something?

CXTPPropertyGridItemMetrics::m_clrReadOnlyFore

m_wndPropertyGrid.GetPaintManager()->GetItemMetrics()-& gt;m_clrReadOnlyFore
