Dear Support

Any idea why the header text is not showing?

                       SelectionMode="Extended"
                       ItemsSource="{Binding Employees}">
    <syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns>
        <syncfusion:GridTextColumn HeaderText="Name" MappingName="FullName" />
        <syncfusion:GridTextColumn HeaderText="Department" MappingName="Department" />

Hi Patrick, 

 

Thank you for using Syncfusion controls. 

 

We have analyzed your code snippet and image, by default header text is appear in SfDataGrid. We suspect that you have override the HeaderCellControl style in your application. Could you please share that code that will help us to provide the solution.

Dear Support

In the meanwhile after a long process, I have found the rootcase. I have a global style for the "Border" element. As soon I deleted this style, the headers do appear. Here was the code I deleted in App.xaml:

<Style TargetType="Border">
    <Setter Property="Background" Value="GhostWhite" />
    <Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="1" />
    <Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Gainsboro" />
</Style>

I guess the control inherits a sub control from border and does not overwrite this property. May be it is something you should take in your issue tracker.
