trigger listgrid hover from other component

[levi]

Hi,

I've got a ListGrid showing some coordinates,
and a DrawPane showing shapes for that data.

When the mouse hovers over a ListGrid row, the style is changed (normal built in behavior).
It would be cool to get the same effect in the ListGrid row, when the mouse hovers over the shape in the DrawPane to show the relation.
Is there a way to trigger that?
Should I go ahead with mimicking mouseHover events on the ListGrid?



TIA,

Mimicking mouse events wouldn't work, and probably isn't the right approach: a hover is supposed to auto-dismiss when you move away from the cell, so if the hover could be triggered by interaction with some other component, it would dismiss immediately with any mouse movement.

Instead consider triggering your own pop-up - possibly one that auto-fades in the style of "Growl", from hover events on both the grid and the DrawPane.
