CXTListCtrl and color of selected rows

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

   We use CXTListCtrls in various dialogs throughout our application. A user recently raised an issue that might be obvious, but I can't seem to figure it out. We are using full-row select. When you select a row, the background changes to the normal "blue" color and is clearly visible. If however you click something else in the dialog and the CXTListCtrl loses focus, the selected row background changes to a very light color that is difficult to distinguish from non-selected rows depending on the monitor and contrast settings. You can see this behavior in the List Control sample as well.
Is there a way to change this behavior... either just don't change the color when the control loses focus, or change the background color used for selected rows when the control does not have focus?

Thanks.
