How to indicate, when a folder is disabled?
Posted: Mon Dec 01, 2008 10:22 AM
Hi,

in FWC and in FWH we are using disabling Folders. In both cases, with the same code:
oFld:aEnable[4] := .f.
oFld:aEnable[5] := .f.


In FWC it looks like this:



so you can clearly see, that pages 4 and 5 are not active. In FHW however, it looks like this:



Is there any way, that you also can see, if a folder page is disabled, so you don't have to click on it?

Gilbert,

In 32 bits their color does not change, though you can not select them.

Antonio,

thanks for your answer. Indeed, it was my question, if there is a possibility to change the color. However, I didn't express myself very clearly. Now I know I don't have to search any further for changing the color of the folder title.

Gilbert,

Windows does not provide a way to disable them (we don't know if there is a workarounf for it yet).

As a solution you could use a special bitmap (prohibited sign, etc.) for the folders tabs that are disabled.
