i am trying to get a different text color in a selection (not very succesfully up until now) and have the attached code which only changes some color settings in rowpainter

now the odd thing is that if i start selecting regular text, the cells in (an adjacent) tabular are also updated. and selecting text in a tabular cell updates other regular text. usually this is not visible, but since the colors are changed this now turns up.

somehow this smells like a bug. am i right?

edwin

PS tips to get the code working are welcome!
