inquire colors on grid control

[picci]

Does properties row-color and cell-color of grid control are inquirable? If so, from which runtime version?

I saw that in versione 9.1.0 the inquire on these properties works, but i'd like to know if they are officially supported.

Hi,

yes, we added the INQUIRE support for the following properties of the grid control in extend 9.1.0. (cell-color, row-color, bitmap, bitmap-number, cell-font)

They are officialy supported.

Regards,

Dominique

I have one more question about inquiring cell font. Does it return the right font handle only when the font is explicitly set with the modify of the cell-font property or the value of cell font should be correcly returned also if i used the font, heading font or row-font  properties?

In other words, if i set the font of row "y=1" with row-font property and then i inquire the cell "y=1,x=2" with cell-font property should i get the font handle previously set to the whole row or not?

I'm asking this because i can't manage to get the font handle that i would expect, inquiring the cell-font property.

The answer is Yes, an inquire should return the font that was applied when you modified the row.

What version are you using? If you are using a version before 9.1, then the inquire will not work ... 9.1 ECN-4059 Introducing INQUIRE support for properties:   cell-color    row-color   bitmap  bitmap-number   cell-font

Thank you for answer. I'm using run-time 9.1.1 (verified also with 9.1.0). Inquiring "cell-color" works only when i set with "cell-color". If i set "row-color" and then inquire with "cell-color" it doesn't work properly, it returns 0 as font handle.

Please report this to Customer Care as it should get fixed.

I played with this a bit further .... if you set a cell to a color and then set the row for that cell to a different color, the cell maintains it's color. Inquiring on cell-color returns the value set for cell-color, and not any row-color setting. Even though setting row-color colors the cell.
