table column label missing horizontal line

Solved!
Go to solution

I have a table on a panel.  Prior to CVI 2019, the label row or header row included a horizontal line underneath.  This gave nice visual separation between it and the data below.

 

Now in CVI 2019 I've notice this is missing. And I can't seem to find an attribute that might turn this on.

I'm not sure whether the problem lies in the CVI environment or in the execution on Windows 10 instead: on my laptop CVI 2012, 2015 and 2017 are installed and the aspect of the table is consistent across all versions. I tend to say that this behavior either depends on the RTE (which as you know is the one of the latest IDE installed) or on the OS.

 

As far as I know you have two alternatives:

- Exclude the Use Windows Visual Style for Controls option in panel attributes, but this heavily changes the aspect of all controls

- Paint table cells background e.g. with a very light gray background (to do this you must disable Conform to System Colors option; you cannot paint row and column labels if you keep the Windows visual style active)

Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.
