Here is an example:

top of the screen in Dev mode and the bottom is the same program in compiled exe.

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
