changing the cell highlight background color

wxPython Users

I’d like to be able to change the highlight background color for a cell. So when I select a row from the grid all the other cells use the normal selection color - but one.

Any help is appreciated.

The only way to that which comes to mind would require that a custom cell renderer be used which ignores the isSelected parameter if the cell being drawn is the currently highlighted cell.

There are examples of custom renderers in the wxPython demo. I don't
think there's a renderer that does this exactly, but they should give
you the general idea.
