TDrawGrid.GridLineWidth Property

Specifies the width (in pixels) of the lines that separate the cells of the grid.

Pascal

property GridLineWidth: Integer;

C++

__property int GridLineWidth;

Description

Set GridLineWidth to make the lines that separate the cells in the grid heavier or lighter. When GridLineWidth is zero, no separators are drawn between the cells of the grid.

GridLineWidth will have no effect if the Options property does not include goFixedHorzLine, goFixedVertLine, goHorzLine, or goVertLine.

Note: Values greater than 3 pixels are not recommended for applications that run on Windows 9x or Windows ME because of distortions that can appear.

Delphi Examples:

Copy Code

{
The following code uses the bitmaps in an image list
component to draw the contents of each cell in a draw grid.
This example includes a draw grid on a form. When the
application runs and the form is created, the width of the
lines on the draw grid changes if the default column width of
the grid is over 90 pixels wide.  This example requires a
populated image list, or can just display an empty grid.
Set the drawgrid DefaultColWidth and GridLineWidth statically
to values the cause the button click to do something.
} 
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
  if DrawGrid1.DefaultColWidth > 90 then
    DrawGrid1.GridLineWidth := 2
  else
    DrawGrid1.GridLineWidth := 1;
end;

procedure TForm1.DrawGrid1DrawCell(Sender: TObject; ACol, ARow: Integer;
  Rect: TRect; State: TGridDrawState);
var
  index: Integer;
begin
  index := ARow * DrawGrid1.ColCount + ACol;
  DrawGrid1.Canvas.Brush.Color := clBackground;
  DrawGrid1.Canvas.FillRect(Rect);
  ImageList1.Draw(DrawGrid1.Canvas,Rect.Left,Rect.Top,index, True);
  if (gdFocused in State) then
  begin
    DrawGrid1.Canvas.DrawFocusRect(Rect);
  end;
end;

procedure TForm1.DrawGrid1SelectCell(Sender: TObject; ACol, ARow: Integer;
  var CanSelect: Boolean);
begin
  CanSelect:= True;
end;
