I need to provide our user with a visual cue that a checkbox in a grid is disabled.
I can set the disabled color for the checkbox in the Grid in AppStylist, but this just changes the background color of the grid cell, which looks odd to me. (Also - does that effect checkboxes that are not in a grid?)
I would prefer to gray out the interior of the checkbox.
Is there a general way to do this for all checkboxes in grids? Also is there a way to just do this for one particular grid?
Thanks,
Andy
To explain this more -when NO theme is applied to the form, the checkbox is grayed out when disabled by setting the Activation property to disabled, but as soon as we apply a theme to the form, the checkbox no longer looks disabled when it is. I tried playing with the colors of the checkbox in the grid in the AppStylist by loading the AppStylist into our Application using Me.AppStylistRuntime1.ShowRuntimeApplicationStylingEditor(Me, ""). Changing the color changed the color of the cell the checkbox is in, not the color of the checkbox itself.
Hello,
Using the AppStylist, you can navigate to OtherStates and in the ReadOnly tab you can customize more than the background of the disabled/readonly cells.
Setting the Alpha level is probably going to be enough, but you can add more effects to it as per your liking.
Should you have any other questions, please let me know.
