Style for a drop down GridListControl

[Martin Brodeur]

How can I change the style (ex: backcolor) of a GridListControl that is showed by a gridListControl cell?

You can handle the gridListControl.Grid.PreparepareViewStyleInfo event, and based on the e.ColIndex and e.RowIndex, set e.Style.BackColor.

Bu when i add a GridListControl to a GridBoundColumn this way :

---------------------------
col = New GridBoundColumn
col.MappingName = "IdEmployee"
With col.StyleInfo

.CellType = "GridListControl"
.DisplayMember = DataSet12.Employees.EmployeeNamecolumn.ColumnName
.ValueMember = DataSet12.Employees.EmployeeIdColumn.ColumnName
.DataSource = DataSet12.Employees
End With
---------------------------

I don't have access to the avents raised by the GridListControl?

I am sorry I missed the part about the grid cell. To get at the embedded GridListControl in a cell to hook its grid's prepareviewstyleinfo, you can use code like this in your FormLoad:

 Dim cellRenderer As GridDropDownGridListControlCellRenderer = Me.gridControl1.CellRenderers("GridListControl")
            Dim gridList As GridListControl = cellRenderer.ListControlPart
            AddHandler gridList.Grid.PrepareViewStyleInfo, AddressOf gridlist_PrepareViewStyleInfo

Then the handler can do soemthing like:

Private Sub gridlist_PrepareViewStyleInfo(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridPrepareViewStyleInfoEventArgs)
      If e.RowIndex Mod 2 = 1 Then
           e.Style.BackColor = Color.LightCoral
      End If
End Sub

This code will change the backcolor everytime the gridlistcontrol is shown.
