Need workaround SetGadgetItemColor with ListViewGadget

[ozak]

I found the workaround for the ListIconGadget, but is there a similar for the ListViewGadget?

Thanks in advance

Can you give a code example of the problem ?
When I try SetGadgetIemText with a ListViewGadget (PB 5.10b7) it seems to work fine

Sorry. I mean the color of an item

Code: Select all

OpenWindow(0,100,100,640,480,"Test")
ListViewGadget(0,0,0,640,480)
For i=1 To 10
  AddGadgetItem(0,-1,"Test"+Str(i))
Next
SetGadgetItemColor(0,2,#PB_Gadget_FrontColor,RGB(Random(255), Random(255), Random(255)),0)
Repeat
Until WaitWindowEvent()=#PB_Event_CloseWindow

This is not supported.

The only thing you can do is use alternating row colors.
PB 5.10b7 example ...

Code: Select all

OpenWindow(0,100,100,640,480,"Test")
ListViewGadget(0,0,0,640,480)
CocoaMessage(0, GadgetID(0), "setUsesAlternatingRowBackgroundColors:", #YES)
For i=1 To 10
  AddGadgetItem(0,-1,"Test"+Str(i))
Next
Repeat
Until WaitWindowEvent()=#PB_Event_CloseWindow

No workaround using CocoaMessage? I tried searching the Apple docs but no luck so far

You may try this workaround which allows you to change text and back color of single rows.
