Use dynamic values for colors on DataGrid Theme

[Andres Alvarado]

Hi guys. I'm currently using a custom theme for my data grid on the app's resources, based on the documentation.

<x:String x:Key="SfDataGridTheme">CustomTheme</x:String> 

                <Color x:Key="SfDataGridHeaderBackgroundColor">White</Color> 

                <Color x:Key="SfDataGridHeaderForegroundColor">White</Color> 

                <Color x:Key="SfDataGridRecordBackgroundColor">#127ac7</Color> 

                <Color x:Key="SfDataGridRecordForegroundColor">White</Color>

                <Color x:Key="SfDataGridAlternatingRowBackgroundColor">#38a0ed</Color>

This theme works as expected. However, I implemented a Theme selector on my app and now I can use 3 different colors for the controls. Each color is assigned by a resource file

<Style TargetType="NavigationPage">

     <Setter Property="BarBackgroundColor" Value="{DynamicResource NavigationBarColor}"/>

     <Setter Property="BarTextColor" Value="{DynamicResource PrimaryTintColor}"/>

</Style>

Can you please help me set the properties of the DataGridTheme, similarly to the NavigationPage Style? I can't find any document related to this issue.

Thanks in advance.

Andres.
