Hi there,

I really am fond of the igrid. It does exactly what I want. Great stuff!

Now I have a list of items in a combo box. It shows alright however I would like to highlight the heading of a group using font-bold and maybe even fore-color as well as background-color.

Example:

AMERICA
Canada
USA
EUROPE
France
Germany
Italy
United Kingdom


Say: If shipment to USA would be selected the background-color would be green whereas in all other cases the background-color would be yellow.

Can this be achieved and if so: how?

Thanks very much in advance.

Kind regards,
John

Thank you for your warm words!

The current public version of iGrid (6.5) does not implement this feature. Generally iGrid combo lists are used to provide a simple drop-down selection list in cells, and we have never thought about adding rich formatting options like colors and fonts for its items because of this.

But your suggestion looks very interesting. Let me move it to the iGrid Suggestions subforum to think about adding it in the next big update of iGrid.

Thank you very much for your answer.

I would very much appreciate if we could have rich text formatting in any text including the ability to place hyperlinks to URL and emailaddresses as well. (I hope this is not asking too much).

Are we talking about normal cells now?

BTW, you can find an example of how to implement that for iGrid cells in the online library of extra sample for iGrid:

See the RTF Text Cells sample.
