Change color of Selected row in GridDataBoundGrid

[Sammy Desir]

Hi
How do I change the color of Selected row in GridDataBoundGrid?

Thanks

If you have the GridSelectionFlags.AlphaBlend set in the grid.AllowSelection property, then you can control the selection color using the grid.AlphaBlendSelectionColor property.

But this also changes the text color and in my case that''s not what I want. Is there any other way to change the selection color?

Try hiding the selection color and then directly set the BackColor in PrepareViewStyleInfo. To manage the currentcell getting colored(if you want this), you can refresh in in SelectionsChanged.

this.gridDataBoundGrid1.AlphaBlendSelectionColor = Color.FromArgb(0,0,0,0);
this.gridDataBoundGrid1.PrepareViewStyleInfo += new GridPrepareViewStyleInfoEventHandler(gridDataBoundGrid1_PrepareViewStyleInfo);
this.gridDataBoundGrid1.Model.SelectionChanged += new GridSelectionChangedEventHandler(Model_SelectionChanged);



private void gridDataBoundGrid1_PrepareViewStyleInfo(object sender, GridPrepareViewStyleInfoEventArgs e)
{
	if(this.gridDataBoundGrid1.Selections.Ranges.AnyRangeContains(GridRangeInfo.Cell(e.RowIndex, e.ColIndex)))
	{
		e.Style.BackColor = Color.Red;
	}
}

private void Model_SelectionChanged(object sender, GridSelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
	if(e.Range != null)
	{
		this.gridDataBoundGrid1.RefreshRange(this.gridDataBoundGrid1.CurrentCell.RangeInfo, true);
	}
}
