Setting selection background in ListCtrl

Question

I'm trying to set a custom background for selected items in wxPython 2.8. I cannot figure out how to do so. I've tried SetItemBackground with no luck.

Selected items in wxListCtrl, wxListBox and so on always use the system background selection colour, it can't be changed.

I was afraid of this. Is there any work around for it? – blitzmann Mar 25 '14 at 16:45
