Custom CellTemplate for a DataGrid in one column?

[Andrew Hoke]

I'm trying to customize the display of some information by adding a small color box to indicate status of a row item in the first column. I see there is a property for HeaderTemplate, but there does not appear to be anything equivalent for grid contents. Is this possible? I understand I can apply styles to columns and cells, but styles will not accomplish what I desire.

Hi Andrew,

Your requirement can be achieved by using the GridTempalteColumn. In, GridTemplateColumn we can load any type of Xamarin Forms View. For more details please refer to the below UG document.

Great, this seems to be what I was looking for; however, I think adding a link to this section on the Data Binding would be helpful for others looking for this guide.

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for your valuable suggestion. We will check the “Data Binding Section” and implement in future.

Is there something equivalent to "GridCellTextViewRenderer" to get live updates for a custom cell template?
