I've created an application using TNextGrid that enables users to easily change the column headings of a loaded CSV file to match column names expected by a database.

 

Is there any way I can highlight a column header when it's clicked to indicate that it has been "selected"?

 

Thanks.

Hello,

 

Maybe you can use OnHeaderClick event and then change color of desired header (or whole column).

 

You can change color of header if you turn off styles (themes).

Hi Boki,

 

It appears that the HeaderStyle has to be set to hsFlatBorders - no other options work.

Hi,

 

You can also maybe use custom drawing, there is a event for custom drawing in header? These other styles are mostly derived from Windows styles and they can not be changed easily.

 

You can maybe put some kind of indicator inside custom drawing header event.
