GGC header and caption cell background colors

[John Slater]

I''ve been unable to change either the header column descriptions or caption cell background colors for GGC (parent or child). Can they be changed in VS?, or do they need to be changed programmically with an event handler.

Thanks

Hi,

this code will work:

			this.groupingGrid1.Appearance.ColumnHeaderCell.Themed = false;
			this.groupingGrid1.Appearance.ColumnHeaderCell.BackColor = Color.Wheat;
			this.groupingGrid1.Appearance.GroupCaptionCell.Themed = false;
			this.groupingGrid1.Appearance.GroupCaptionCell.BackColor = Color.Wheat;

Key is to turn off XP Themes for those cells.
