Gentlemen,
Just had an observation by one of our users about the "wish wash" colous
used in grids to highlight the current row.

In development mode these are fine as I specify row highlichting with visual
persistence and rcb(0,0,255) as the highlightbackcolor for the grid and a
white forecolour so it stands out really well as dark blue background with
white writing. No problem there...

However, when the program is compiled up into an exe the row highlighting
appears a s really light blus back colour with white writing which is almost
indistinguishable due to lack of contrast.

Has anyone else come across this phaenomena? In al my years I have never
noticed it but it has obviously happened. 

Luckily all the grids we use are subclassed so I can change the look
accordingly but the same thing happens when I specify green as the highlight
back colour.

I appreciate that certain monitors give different "colour hues" but I am
running the dev program and the compiled program on the same monitor and
still get the different colours... weird!

Any ideas?

A somewhat confused Dave
