Changing Table selection color [message #445473]

Is there a way to change the foreground and background color used to
highlight selected rows in a table?

Right now, the only thing I can think of is to register as a selection
listener and manual change the background and foreground color on
TableItem's as the selection set changes. Is this going to be
overridden by the system selection colors anyway?

There is no way to override the color for the selection foreground and
background. When you call TableItem.setForeground or
TableItem.setBackground, the color chosen is not applied to the selected
item.
