The Visible property is available for all form objects in a list form under the Display theme:



The property may be set to one of three values:

• Always Visible


• If record is selected


• If record is not selected

This property can be used to represent the selection of records using objects rather than the conventional use of a highlight color. Here is an example:





How this was done:

• Created a list form


• NOTE: Field objects were set to transparent and the white rectangle object in the Detail area was removed to prevent the highlight


• Pasted a Static Picture image to the form and moved it into the Detail section


• Selected "If record is selected" for the Visible property of the Static Picture
