For a GridControl, you can set the celltype to be static and then set teh ImageList and ImageIndex properties on teh style to display an image. Me.gridControl1(0, 2).ImageList = imageList Me.gridControl1(0, 2).ImageIndex = 1 Me.gridControl1(0, 2).CellType = "Static" //the header shows the image in column 2. For a GridDataBoundGrid, you would need to handle PrepareViewStyleInfo, and depending upon the passed in e.ColIndex and e.RowIndex (should be zero). then set e.StyleInfo.CellType = "Static", and also set the ImageList and ImageIndex in the event handler as well.

Can I do it somehow without imagelist? Just to call an image?

You can try using a Image celltype. this.grid[2, 1].CellValue = someImage; this.grid[2,1].CellType = "Image";

Can you give me some example with preparestyleinfo and ColIndx?

When i put an image on header I get a black background. Why? My image is transparent...

You can try setting this property to see if it helps. this.gridControl1.SupportsTransparentBackColor = true; If not, you can add your transparent bitmap to the sample above, and upload it here, and we can try to get it working.

It''s not working! I still have a black background!

Here is a sample showing a bitmap in a cell with a transparent color. http://www.syncfusion.com/Support/user/uploads/GDBG_GLC_dc29c85a.zip If you upload a sample showing your problem, we can try to spot the problem here.

Here is the code that I use and a picture with result in grid. image_8517.zip

Where have you get this code? e.Style.CellType = "Icon"; I do not know what an "Icon" celltype is? Did you register a custom cellmodel a CellType named "Icon"? Have you tried your bitmap in the sample I attached above (swapping the Blue our for your transparent color)?


HV Hrvoje Voda June 30, 2005 08:25 AM UTC

Yes but it doesn''t work. My image is transparent. But, when I put "Icon" under CellType I get an image without that black background. The problem is that I can''t put it in center.


AD Administrator Syncfusion Team June 30, 2005 09:18 AM UTC

Did you define an "Icon" celltype? If not, then setting CellType = "Icon" is the same as setting CellType = "Static" because the grid does not know any cell type name Icon so it defaults to a Static celltype. Please attach a sample project that I can run to see your problem. If you do this, I will try suggest a solution.

I solved a problem with your example. Some parameters that I use were not correct.
