Colors in Cells in GroupByRow

[User (Old forums)]

#13260 |

Hello,

I have a grid with groups and sub groups (up to 6 levels).
Now I paint the groups in different colors according their level in the grid.
My question is: Can I paint the Cells in the GroupByRow in different colors,
according to depth level in the hirarcy of groups like in the grid.

I tried the following:

Dim mCells() as Xceed.Grid.GroupByRow.GroupByCell = MyGroupByRow.GetCells()
But all properties in mCells are Readonly and I only can set the backcolor for all
cells and not individual.

Is there a trick or workaround ?

Thanks in Advance

Regards
Robert

No, there is no way to have different color for different cell in the GroupByRow. No clean work around exist to be able to do that. The only way will be to override the PaintForeground and repaint the cell the way you want at the same location that is returned by the GetCells() method.

Hi,

when you only want to set the color of a group in the grid part (and not in the GroupByRow part) you can simply change the style by using the following properties

gridcontrol1.Groups(x).BackColor = …
gridcontrol1.Groups(x).ForeColor = …
gridcontrol1.Groups(x).Font = …

Hi kleinR thanks for quick response. What u have replied is to set a group individually, which I know it. What I meant is how to set it alternateviley.

Dim group As New Group
group.GroupBy = “Table”
group.HeaderRows.Add(New GroupManagerRow)
GridControl1.GroupTemplates.Add(group)
GridControl1.UpdateGrouping()

Using this code I get my data listed as a group. Suppose there are 4 groups, then first group should be lightblue, second should be lightgray, third again lightblue and fourth lightgray. Hope you are able to understand what I’m trying to say?
