I've my grid class, that works fine and use its own styles. I want to insert that grid in a TRichViewEdit component. All's ok for cell text and borders but i can't set font styles (name, size...) and text alignment.

I convert my styles to TFontInfo and add it to TRVStyle:

Code: Select all

int AddStyle(TRVStyle *rvs, TFontInfo *pFontInfo)
{
  rvs->TextStyles->Add();
  int NewStyleNo = rvs->TextStyles->Count - 1;
  rvs->TextStyles->Items[NewStyleNo]->Assign(pFontInfo);
  rvs->TextStyles->Items[NewStyleNo]->Standard = false;
  return NewStyleNo;
}

In my style objects, i store the returned NewStyleNo into an UserData integer, to use it when i later add cells from my grid to TRichView:

[code]
            if(TRVTableCellData *pCell = pTable->Cells[r][c])
            {
              clsString sText  = "some text";
              if(TLigsStyle *pStyle = ligsprinter->GetStyleP(sStyle))
              {
                  pCell->GetTable()->AssociatedTextStyleNo  = pStyle->UserData;
              }
              pCell->SetItemText(0, CS(sText));
            }

The problem seems to be in GetTable()->AssociatedTextStyleNo that seems to do nothing or maybe i've not undesrtood how styles works, in TRichViewEdit?

Please, excuse me for the bad formatting of previous message.

I've found a solution but it is very slow:

Code: Select all

                pTable->Select(r, c, 0, 0);
                rve->ApplyTextStyle(pStyle->UserData);

Maybe is enough to disable updates of the control while inserting cells.

Using BeginUpdate/EndUpdate doesn't change the speed, this solution is too slow

I would like to know if there's some sample about the correct way to use ApplyTextStyle or ApplyParaStyle, in a fast way.

Setting font and alignment should be a simple task, for such kind of component, but i'm loosing on this details.

It seems that the slow down is do to this commands:

Code: Select all

                pTable->Select(r, c, 0, 0);
                rve->ApplyTextStyle(textStyleNo);
                rve->ApplyParaStyle(paraStyleNo);

I have to do it for any cell in the grid. If i only add text, the grid would be created almost instantly, if i set text/para style it requires 8 seconds for a 30 rows x 10 columns table.

There is a way to speed up apply text/para styles?

Thanks.

Before inserting the table, call:

Code: Select all

for (int r = 0; r<pTable->RowCount; r++)
  for (int c = 0; c<pTable->ColCount; c++)
  {
    pTable->Cells[r][c]->Clear();
    pTable->Cells[r][c]->AddNL('', textStyleNo, paraStyleNo);
  }

As for AssociatedTextStyleNo, this property is implemented only in items that are linked to text style, i.e. in tabs and labels. This property is for internal use.

It works and it is very fast, now.

Thanks.
