The problem with listbox.CellBackgroundPaint

The problem comes down to the fact that Xojo does not provide a framework method for setting the selected row highlight color for the listbox on the Mac. (actually there are 2 different ones - one where the listbox is active and one where it is not)

That is not true. With the introduction of the ColorGroup class in 2019r3, it is possible to access the native color values.

' Highlight Color (active)
g.DrawingColor = ColorGroup.NamedColor("selectedContentBackgroundColor")

' Highlight Color (inactive)
g.DrawingColor = ColorGroup.NamedColor("unemphasizedSelectedContentBackgroundColor")
