Different background for each row in a list
#1
Hard to put into words, hopefully a pic will explain better:

I wanted a list of 7 items where each row in the list has it's own background, going from:

dark
light
dark
light
dark
light

Sort of like that excel sheet, but <visible>Container(53).Row(0) | Container(53).Row(2) | Container(53).Row(4)</visible> only returns true as that row is focused? Any tips?

What are you filling the list with? Custom items or ListItem?

Oh, regular ListItem - TV/Movie/Music library stuff...

I'd probably try using a coverflow control for it as a texture underneath the actual list and see how that worked to start with.

ugh, not sure I want to go the Coverflow route for something small. Only half way coding, guess I'll see how it flows with a plain old static background....Thx though!

Does it have to scroll? If not, set the scrollspeed to zero and use a static texture.

Have to - no, still little early to know 100% what I want. Kind of half in my head and half worked up in PS at the moment. Guess I'll see how scrollspeed 0 plays out...

I tried this for shade. I got it to work using a static image with the rows different shades, BUT, it looks terrible when moving up and down the list because its not animated.
