and thats what we don't see this focus rectangle on the controls. Do you know the controls which are having this rectangle to indicate focus?

Hello ,

UltraTextEditor has a property DisplayStyle which determines the style used by the control, so you could set this property to WindowsVista for example and you will see a blue rectangle around the component if it is hovered or it contains the focus.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Thanks for that and this is what i was looking..

I have another question.. Is there any way to set the property in the style library so every time when a control gets selected, it should show this little rectangle? All our controls use isl files for styles and given then number of controls in the application.. it is almost impossible to set the DisplayStyle for each editor.. Can we do this through isl file? I do see one "Selected" tab in the AppStylist but this is not enabled for all controls. Is there a way to enable this for all control types?

Hello, ­­­­­

I am just checking about the progress of this issue. Let me know If you need my further assistance on this  matter?

Thank you for using Infragistics Components.

Thanks for follow up. I have got some time to play with style. I think we can acheive with visual studio 2005.

is there a way we can acheive this with current 2010 based style?

Also, with visual studio 2005 style it still can't add rectangle around combo box, drodown, calendar dropdown and date time editiors.

I need to show this for all the controls as this is one of section 508 requirement from one of our client.

Any Ideas?

Hello ,

Please let me know if there is anything else that I could for you regarding this issue.

Thank you for using Infragistics Components.

Basically there is no way to have style do this for us (other than text editors)?

Thanks for your help!

Hello,

What you could do in your case is to handle paint event of the component, on which you need to draw this rectangle and to draw it in this event. You could use code like:

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            foreach (Control c in this.Controls)

            {

                if(c is UltraComboEditor || c is UltraCalculatorDropDown || c is UltraDateTimeEditor)

                c.Paint += new PaintEventHandler(c_Paint);

            }

        }

        void c_Paint(object sender, PaintEventArgs e)

        {

            if (((Control)sender).ContainsFocus)

                e.Graphics.DrawRectangle(new Pen(new SolidBrush(Color.Green), 2), ((Control)sender).ClientRectangle);

        }

Also please see attached sample.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.
