Description

Property; the RGB color value for the bar used to highlight the selected item in a component's list. This property works with the FStyleFormat.textSelected property to display selected items, and you should coordinate the colors to make text easy to read. For example, the global style format assigns a blue color value to the selection property used to display the selection bar in the ListBox and ComboBox components, and assigns a white color value to the textSelected property; this color combination allows the user to view selected text easily. The color value must be in the format 0xRRGGBB.

You must use FStyleFormat.applyChanges when updating properties with a new value.

Example

The following code assigns a value of 0x87CEEB to the selection property in formStyleFormat, producing a sky-blue selection bar.

formStyleFormat.selection = 0x87CEEB;
