You can't link a color of row with tow number here (with Row property).

Try the DataSource.DataSet.RecNo for this purpose.

Unfortunately not all datasets have a working RecNo property. Especially SQL based datasets do not have one or have only a simulated one that takes enormous amounts of time.

Wouldn't it be possible for you to build this feature into TsDBGrid:

Property AlternateColors: Boolean which defaults to False for compatibility with previous versions.

Event OnGetAlternateColor(OddRow: Boolean; CurrColor: TColor): TColor. (Only needed for customized alternate colors)

Considering the number of web pages with explanations / questions on how to do this in TDBGrid that must be a welcomed addition to AC.

The alternate color logic only has to be based on the physical row, not on content or record number of the underlying dataset (first displayed row has the odd color, second displayed row has the even color, etc.):

Code:

RowNo := Rect.Top div (Rect.Bottom – Rect.Top);
OddRow := Odd(RowNo);

Would you? Could you?

I now understand it is known behavior of Windows, not of AC.

Pity

A purpose of this property is switching of the component to the special editing mode where order of items may be changed by user.

Now that the property is gone from Published to Public, it may be a good idea to implement the event OnAfterDragItem so that the programmer can reset the DragItems property.

I'm glad it is a known behavior. But shouldn't it be changed?

AC 12.22 solved this

[HeDiBo]

Remember that my wife has the same problem. Her laptop runs with a standard theme.

Bug is still present in AC 12.22

Why do you have a light grey highlight? Doesn't look like the right color for Cappuccino!

[HeDiBo]

It's a problem with the account I run under.

If I log in with a different account, there is no problem with the icons.

Thank you for your efforts. You can consider this a closed case.

I remember now: I had this before. Something to do with the Windows Icon Cache. I'll look into this some more. Don't bother about this for the moment.

Selected item is drawn by system

In your system the selection is drawn light blue (strange color for the Cappuccino skin). In my system and also on the Windows 10 laptop of my wife the selection is drawn in a very dark color.

Could it be a Windows Theme problem?

You told that you have changed sources and recompiled.

This left bar is not visible in the original downloaded demo?

I also tried this with the original version of ASkinDemo.exe and have the same result.

Can you show me a picture of it? Just to be sure we're talking about the same thing?

The problem is not that they are not visible. The root buttons have a black background, not a transparent background. Also here the documents icon is not visible:
