Tried this to change the text in the header to red.

Did not work.

How do I do it?

Red = red<1,1,13> =255 red<1,1,14> =0 red<1,1,15> =0 void =set_property(WeekTable$, "HEADER.Font", 1, Red) </QUOTE> —- === At 18 AUG 2023 07:04PM Andrew McAuley wrote: === <QUOTE> <QUOTE>Tried this to change the text in the header to red. Did not work. How do I do it? Red =

I don’t know the answer and I can’t test the theory but…

Have you tried passing a complete font definition? (Get_property first)

And

If you don’t want the results of a set_property (void) then use set_property_only as it avoids the unnecessary implicit get_property.

You can use the COLUMNS sub-object CELLSTYLE method:

    currStyle = exec_Method( ctrlEntID, "CELLSTYLE", colNo, stateID, bHeader )

    prevStyle = exec_Method( ctrlEntID, "CELLSTYLE", colNo, stateID, bHeader, newStyle )

A cellstyle is a dynamic array of styling information that is applied to a state, such as Selected, Disabled an so on, as defined in PS_EDITTABLE_EQUATES:

   // CELLSTYLE equates

   //

   // A column, row or cell can have a style applied to it that is used for

   // a specific state (this applies to header cells as well)

   // 

   // The states that can have a style applied are:

   //

   //    Normal

   //    Hot

   //    Disabled

   //    Selected

   //    HotSelected

   //    SelectedNoFocus

   //    Current

   

   equ PS_EDT_CS_NORMAL$                         to 0

   equ PS_EDT_CS_HOT$                            to 1

   equ PS_EDT_CS_DISABLED$                       to 2

   equ PS_EDT_CS_SELECTED$                       to 3

   equ PS_EDT_CS_HOTSELECTED$                    to 4

   equ PS_EDT_CS_SELNOFOCUS$                     to 5

   equ PS_EDT_CS_CURRENT$                        to 6

   

   // The styling that can be applied for a state is defined by the 

   // following structure:

   // 

   // <1> ForeColor                 (COLORREF)

   // <2> BackColor From            (COLORREF)

   // <3> BackColor To              (COLORREF)

   // <4> Bold                      TRUE$/FALSE$

   // <5> Italic                    TRUE$/FALSE$

   // <6> Underline                 TRUE$/FALSE$

   // <7> Translucency              (0-100) 

   // <8> GlyphIndex                (>=0)

   

   equ PS_EDT_CS_POS_FORECOLOR$                  to 1

   equ PS_EDT_CS_POS_BACKCOLORFROM$              to 2

   equ PS_EDT_CS_POS_BACKCOLORTO$                to 3

   equ PS_EDT_CS_POS_BOLD$                       to 4

   equ PS_EDT_CS_POS_ITALIC$                     to 5

   equ PS_EDT_CS_POS_UNDERLINE$                  to 6

   equ PS_EDT_CS_POS_TRANSLUCENCY$               to 7

   equ PS_EDT_CS_POS_GLYPHINDEX$                 to 8

So to set the header text for column 1 to Red you would do something like this:

   cs = ""

   cs<PS_EDT_CS_POS_FORECOLOR$> = RED$

   bHdr = TRUE$

   call exec_Method( WeekTable$ : ".COLUMNS", "CELLSTYLE", 1, PS_EDT_CS_NORMAL$, bHdr, cs )

Great thanks.

Where should I have found the documentation on this?
