Datagrid UNICODE for table headers?

[zryip theSlug]

Hi Malte,

In DGH, be assured we have nothing really hard coded. :-)

For Unicode labels, DGH installs a handler in the default header
behavior of the datagrid and disables the pEncoding parameter of the
dgLabel property.
For column contents, DGH manages some special properties for allowing
developers to change column encoding by code.

Here is the DGH lesson for changing the header behavior of a datagrid
by using DGH:
http://lessons.runrev.com/m/4068/l/56190


Without DGH, a solution could consist to change the default header
behavior of your datagrid by using:
set the dgProp["default header behavior"] of grp "myDatagrid" to the
long id of btn "MyCustomHeaderBehavior"

Copy the default script for header behavior directly from the datagrid
library by using:
set script of btn "MyCustomHeaderBehavior" to script of btn "Default
Header" of stack "revDataGridLibrary"

In the button script you have to change the code of the dgLabel
property for doing what you need with unicode.
