Hello:
can the color of the selected row of a listicons (by SetGadgetState(), not by mouse) be set other than the default one?
The color is too fade

Thanks

Maybe Infratec's sample will help...

Code: Select all

; Question:          
;  The code below shows the centre item is slightly coloured.
;  Is there any way to get it to be the same as when selected by the mouse, i.e. Dark Blue background?          
;==================================================================

If OpenWindow(0, 100, 100, 300, 200, "ListIcon Example", #PB_Window_SystemMenu | #PB_Window_ScreenCentered)
   ListIconGadget(0, 5, 5, 290, 120, "Name", 100, #PB_ListIcon_FullRowSelect | #PB_ListIcon_AlwaysShowSelection)
   AddGadgetColumn(0, 1, "Address", 250)
   AddGadgetItem(0, -1, "Harry Rannit"+Chr(10)+"12 Parliament Way, Battle Street, By the Bay")
   AddGadgetItem(0, -1, "Ginger Brokeit"+Chr(10)+"130 PureBasic Road, BigTown, CodeCity")
   AddGadgetItem(0, -1, "Ginger Brokeit"+Chr(10)+"130 PureBasic Road, BigTown, CodeCity")
   SetActiveGadget(0) ; this is required to change the color... comment out to see.
   SetGadgetItemState(0,1,#PB_ListIcon_Selected)
      
   
   Repeat
     Event = WaitWindowEvent()
   Until Event = #PB_Event_CloseWindow
EndIf

Blueb, I think morosh means to give selected lines a different colour than Windows normally uses, not just select them.

You may try this 16 year old example from Sparkie. I have just tested it successfully on Windows 7 with PB 5.73 x86 and x64. Unfortunately I am on vacation with a 14 year old iMac and a BootCamp version which only supports Windows 7...

Thank you all!!!
Finally SetGadgetItemColor did the job simply

Code: Select all

Procedure highlight2()
  Define str.s
  Static xx.u
  str=":"+LCase(GetGadgetText(52))
  SetGadgetItemColor(102,xx-1,#PB_Gadget_BackColor,$ffffff)	; reset color
  For i=1 To CountGadgetItems(102)
;   Debug i
    If FindString(GetGadgetItemText(102,i-1),str)
      Debug "Match"
      SetGadgetItemColor(102,i-1,#PB_Gadget_BackColor,$cc33ff)	; set new color
      ;      SetGadgetAttribute(102,i-1)
      xx=i
      Break
    EndIf
  Next
EndProcedure

just an extract

I need to DisableGadget(GadgetName, #True) the ListIconGadget while my app updates other data to keep users from clicking on other items in the list. The SetGadgetItemColor does not seem to work when I DisableGadget(GadgetName, #False) the ListIconGadget.

Before the ListIconGadget is disable the selected row is highlighted in blue. When you disable and re-enable it the blue is gone and the row is just in a light grey.

Have tried multiple Gadget Get/Set options. Any help would be appreciated.

SetActiveGadget(0) ; this is required to change the color... comment out to see.

As mentionned before, you need to reactivate gadget (give the focus) with SetActiveGadget().
No focus : background color of the line is grey. With focus, background color is blue.

Tried that. Here is the code. Did not set the row back to blue. Still a grey.

DisableGadget(ListIcon_Machine_List,#False) ; Allow Clicking on new row after data is loaded.
SetActiveGadget(ListIcon_Machine_List)
SetGadgetItemColor(ListIcon_Machine_List, GetGadgetState(ListIcon_Machine_List), #PB_Gadget_BackColor, $FFFF00)

Are you really sure your list has a selected item? (GetGadgetState(ListIcon_Machine_List)>=0)

Code: Select all

If OpenWindow(0, 100, 100, 400, 230, "ListIconGadget", #PB_Window_SystemMenu | #PB_Window_ScreenCentered)
  ListIconGadget(0, 5, 5, 390, 90, "Name", 100, #PB_ListIcon_FullRowSelect | #PB_ListIcon_AlwaysShowSelection)
  AddGadgetColumn(0, 1, "Address", 250)
  AddGadgetItem(0, -1, "Harry Rannit"+Chr(10)+"12 Parliament Way, Battle Street, By the Bay")
  AddGadgetItem(0, -1, "Ginger Brokeit"+Chr(10)+"130 PureBasic Road, BigTown, CodeCity")
  ListIconGadget(1, 5, 100, 390, 90, "Name", 100, #PB_ListIcon_FullRowSelect | #PB_ListIcon_AlwaysShowSelection)
  AddGadgetColumn(1, 1, "Address", 250)
  AddGadgetItem(1, -1, "Harry Rannit"+Chr(10)+"12 Parliament Way, Battle Street, By the Bay")
  AddGadgetItem(1, -1, "Ginger Brokeit"+Chr(10)+"130 PureBasic Road, BigTown, CodeCity")
  ButtonGadget(2, 5, 200, 80, 22, "Disable")
  ButtonGadget(3, 90, 200, 80, 22, "Enable")
  SetGadgetState(0, 0)
  SetGadgetState(1, 0)
  SetActiveGadget(1)
  
  Repeat
    Evenment = WaitWindowEvent()
    Select Evenment
      Case #PB_Event_Gadget
        Select EventGadget()
          Case 2:DisableGadget(0, #True)
          Case 3:DisableGadget(0, #False):SetActiveGadget(0)
        EndSelect
    EndSelect
  Until Evenment = #PB_Event_CloseWindow
EndIf

If I comment out the DisableGadget parts it works fine. Selection stays highlighted.
