Setting the RowBackground & AlternatingRowBackground to another color still returns White at runtime.

[Clint David]

Hi,

We are using Syncfusion (v11.2) GridDataControl. We have set the RowBackground and AlternatingRowBackground to a color other than "White" but the output is always White. We ave set ShowAddNewRow to False as well.

<Style x:Key="GridDataControlBaseStyle" TargetType="{x:Type syncfusion:GridDataControl}">

        <Setter Property="ShowAddNewRow" Value="False" />

        <Setter Property="RowBackground" Value="Gray" />

        <Setter Property="AlternatingRowBackground" Value="Gray" />

    </Style>

 

Looking at the source code, the properties are defaulted to White. 

I saw some post about this in the forums and i hope i don't get a similar response that it does not happen on your side.

Hoping for your response as it is a very big annoyance to see a patch of white in our apps appearance.

Clint

Hi Clint,

Thanks for using syncfusion products.

We have analyzed your query and if we are creating the style for the GridDataControl then we have to add the StaticResource Key in the GridDataControl style as below the code snippet.

Code snippet[XAML]:

  <syncfusion:GridDataControl Name="syncgrid"

    Grid.Row="1"

    AutoPopulateColumns="False"

    AutoPopulateRelations="False"

    ItemsSource="{Binding GDCSource}"

    NotifyPropertyChanges="True"

    ShowAddNewRow="False"

    ShowFilters="True"

    Style="{StaticResource GridDataControlBaseStyle}"

    UpdateMode="PropertyChanged">

We have prepared a simple sample based on your requirement and please find the sample under the following location.

Sample: GDC_Sample.zip

Please let us know if you have any queries.
