Remove dotted indication in Tlistbox
Tom de Neef
When I start a Tlistbox with listbox.items.assign(stringlist), none of the
lines has any marking.
When I click a line, it gets grayed and the itemindex will be updated.
If I now set listbox.itemindex:=-1; the graying of the line is removed but
there is still a dotted border around the previously grayed text.
Is there a way to get rid of that dotted indication as well?
TIA, Tom

It is a bit silent yes.
It's probably the focus (the item that will get the input e.g. from the
keyboard). Give some other component (e.g. a button) the focus.
I can't really inspect the possible options, but search the tlistbox
definition (and/or its ancestors) for killfocus or removefocus or so.

IMO the dotted rectangle is the focus indicator. Move the focus to
another control, and it goes away.

The above Codegear link will direct you to the Embarcadero NGs. I think you
can get them up in your newsreader, but you can't post until you join/register
with Embarcadero. You don't have to own any product, but you have to join.
If you were already a Borland registered user, you can use your existing
username on the Embarcadero Servers.
You will find Team B at:
embarcadero.public.delphi.language.delphi.general
embarcadero.public.delphi.language.delphi.win32
I am sure there are others, but those are the only two I am lurking in these
days...
Good Luck.

With that, You'll need to do your own drawing of
each item including the focus box.
