Background colours

edited June 2004 in General
Hi

From within the ppDesigner or via RAP within the Designer I want to set the
Groups[x].Color or the GroupFooter[x].Color, so that each section is divided
by a coloured summary band. I can't see anywhere to do this ??

Thanks
Tony Danby

    Hi Tony,

    Try placing a TppShape inside a band with the ParentWidth and ParentHeight
    properties set to True. By coloring the (rectangle) shape, you will
    essentially be giving a band a background color.

    Thanks, that worked. For anyone else who wants to do it, just shove the
    following code in the GroupFooter BeforeGenerate event :-

    Shape1.Pen.Style := psClear;

    Shape1.Brush.Color := clBtnFace;

    Thanks once again
    Tony
