Is there a way to get the current color of a cell?

In the CellColoring event I have the following and it does not seem to work;

CellColor := gridHours.Cell[ACol, ARow].ActualColor;

Is where a way to get the color? I have tried a test using the OnCellClick event and displaying the cell color in a msgbox however it does not return the clicked cell color.

Regards,

Dan.

Hello,

You may read CellColor var parameter inside this event (it is already set)

What I am trying to do is populate a grid from another grid. I currently read the first 10 rows of one grid however I am not able to read the CellColor from the grid I want to copy.

Hello,

Please sorry for delay.

I think that you may simply call this event, or maybe set Color property of Cell?

Hi,

Thanks for replying Boki.


In the OnCellColoring event, setting the CellColor variable does change Cell[x, x].Color.

Below is the code I have to use to allow me to get the cells color at a later stage.

        CellColor := StringToColor(AppSettings.ColourHours.ValueFromIndex[i]);
        TNextGrid(Sender).Cell[ACol, ARow].Color := CellColor;

The problem with this is that it causes a continuous refresh to occur.

Try adding:
if TNextGrid(Sender).Cell[ACol, ARow].Color <> CellColor
then TNextGrid(Sender).Cell[ACol, ARow].Color := CellColor;
