table, with zero linewidth

Stef · Post by **Stef** » Tue Oct 11, 2005 10:17 pm

If I insert a table with zero linewidth, (calling RVE.format afterwards),
I don't see any (dotted) lines in my editor.

After closing and reopening the document,
the zero linewidths are beautiful displayed as dotted lines in RVE.

I probably set some property wrong, but cann't figure out which.
Any explanation / solution ?

cheers,

If you do not use RichViewActions, grid is controlled by the following variables

RichViewTableGridStyle: TPenStyle = psDot; // in editor
RichViewTableGridStyle2: TPenStyle = psClear; // in viewer and read-only editor
RichViewTableGridColor: TColor = clBtnFace;

These variables are not saved in files, so reloading must not affect them.
But read-only mode does.

thanks Sergey, but I don't get it.

I've a table in a RVE, and a radiogroup that sets the linewidth by it's itemindex, like the code below

Code: Select all

  RVEx.BeginItemModify(ItemNo, Data);
  table.BorderWidth:=radiogroup.ItemIndex;
  // table.CellBorderWidth:=radiogroup.itemindex;
  RVEx.EndItemModify(ItemNo, Data);
  RVEx.Change;
end;

Borderwidths of 1,2,3 are working correctly,
but whether I use borderwidth or cellbortherwidth,
with itemindex=0, the borders disappears completly.
The RVE is not in readonly mode.

cheers,

I created a very simple project trying to reproduce this problem:
http://www.trichview.com/support/files/tablegrid.zip
But it works as expected, table grid is shown.

thanks very much Sergey,

your example helped me very quickly to identify the problem,
after porting all my code to your example,
the problem arised,
then I saw I had made a stupid mistake,
I did add rvtoHideGridLines !!

Sorry for bothering you,
but I really have stared several evenings at this problem,
and couldn't find it.

cheers,
