Hi all, i am trying to use a Display to change the look of ColumnList.

I have derived a class from ColumnList and Display like FileList does:

class NewList : public ColumnList, private Display {
   public:
      NewList();
      virtual void Paint(Draw& w, const Rect& r, const Value& q, Color ink, Color paper, dword style);
      Size GetStdSize();
}

and the implementation looks like this:

NewList::NewList() {
   SetDisplay(*this);
};

void NewList::Paint(Draw& w, const Rect& r, const Value& q, Color ink, Color paper, dword style) {
   w.DrawRect(r,SGray());
};

Size NewList::GetStdSize() {
   Size sz;
   sz.cx=300;
   sz.cy=40;
   return sz;
}

But the Paint method of NewList ist never called - only StdDisplay::Paint is called.

what did i do wrong?

PS: sorry for any strage code, but copy and paste still doesn't work for me, at least not from TheIDE to Firefox, the other way works Confused
