Alternate Grid Colors?

[Ken Bryant]

Where can I find the design time property to have my grid rows alternate color, or is this something better left for code? Thanks!

Currently, there are no property settings to control this, so you do have to do this from code.

The most straight-forward way is in prepareViewStyleInfo setting e.Style.backColor based on the value of e.RowIndex.

Private Sub GridDataBoundGrid1_PrepareViewStyleInfo(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridPrepareViewStyleInfoEventArgs) Handles GridDataBoundGrid1.PrepareViewStyleInfo
	If e.RowIndex > 0 And e.RowIndex Mod 2 = 1 And e.ColIndex > 0 Then
		e.Style.BackColor = Color.LightGreen
        ElseIf e.RowIndex > 0 And e.ColIndex > 0 Then
		e.Style.BackColor = Color.White
	End If
End Sub
