setColumnColor

For some reason, setColumnColor does not appear to change anything in my dhtmlxgrid. Does this have something to do with the style overriding the setColumnColor method?


        incomingloadsgrid = new dhtmlXGridObject('incomingloadsgrid');
        incomingloadsgrid.setImagePath("/codebase/imgs/");
        incomingloadsgrid.setHeader("<img src='/resources/images/info_icon.png' width='16'>,Load,Carrier,Origin,Pickup Date,Delivery Date,Status,Carrier Quote,Carrier Adjst.,Carrier Rate,Invoice Number,Invoice Received,Container Number,Action,#master_checkbox");
        incomingloadsgrid.setInitWidths("20,40,*,*,55,55,55,50,50,50,40,65,55,55,30");
        incomingloadsgrid.setColAlign("center,center,left,left,left,left,left,right,right,right,right,right,center,center,center");
        incomingloadsgrid.setColTypes("ro,ro,ro,ro,ro,ro,ro,ed,ed,ed,ed,ed,ed,ro,ch");
        incomingloadsgrid.setSkin("myskin");
        incomingloadsgrid.init();
incomingloadsgrid.parse(incomingloadDataJS,"jsarray");
        incomingloadsgrid.setColSorting("str,int,str,str,str,str,str,str,str,str,int,str,str,str,str");
        incomingloadsgrid.attachEvent("onRowSelect", onRowSelected);
        incomingloadsgrid.attachEvent("onMouseOver", onMouseOver);
        incomingloadsgrid.attachEvent("onCheck", onCheck);
        incomingloadsgrid.enableEditEvents(true, true, true);
        incomingloadsgrid.setColumnColor(",,,,,,,blue,#d5f1ff,orange,,,,,");

        //turn QuickPay rows red
        for (i = 1; i <= incomingloadDataJS.length; i++) {
            if (incomingloadData[i - 1]['quick_pay'] == "1") {
                incomingloadsgrid.setRowTextStyle(i, "color:red;");
            }
        }

Unfortunately we cannot reproduce this issue locally. Probably setColumnColor() is blocked by custom skin. Please try to use default one and check if method will work.

Disabling the custom skin did not work.  The columns still will not change color

Tried that and it still doesn't work.  Any other ideas?

I want to set the background color of certain columns.  I am trying to use the setColumnColor method but nothing changes in the grid.  I have tried changing skins, removing all other methods, moving the method before init, and so on.

The issue wasn't reproduced locally. Please, see attached sample
