Grid Grouping row colour change on edit

[Paul Sullivan]

Hi,
I want the color of a whole row to change when the user starts to edit the data in any cell. That is when they change the contents of a cell. Do you have any idea how I do that please?
Thanks
Paul

I think you can handle 3 events to get this behavior.

            gridGroupingControl1.TableControlPrepareViewStyleInfo += new GridTableControlPrepareViewStyleInfoEventHandler(gridGroupingControl1_TableControlPrepareViewStyleInfo);
            gridGroupingControl1.TableControlCurrentCellChanging += new GridTableControlCancelEventHandler(gridGroupingControl1_TableControlCurrentCellChanging);
            gridGroupingControl1.TableControlCurrentCellMoved += new GridTableControlCurrentCellMovedEventHandler(gridGroupingControl1_TableControlCurrentCellMoved);



        private int editingRow = -2;
        void gridGroupingControl1_TableControlCurrentCellChanging(object sender, GridTableControlCancelEventArgs e)
        {
            editingRow = e.TableControl.GetNestedCurrentCell().RowIndex;
            e.TableControl.RefreshRange(GridRangeInfo.Row(editingRow));
        }
        
        void gridGroupingControl1_TableControlCurrentCellMoved(object sender, GridTableControlCurrentCellMovedEventArgs e)
        {
            if (editingRow != e.TableControl.GetNestedCurrentCell().RowIndex)
                editingRow = -2;
        }

       void gridGroupingControl1_TableControlPrepareViewStyleInfo(object sender, GridTableControlPrepareViewStyleInfoEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Inner.RowIndex == editingRow)
            {
                e.Inner.Style.BackColor = Color.Red;
            }
        }

Great, that works, thanks. I must say I've worked with grids where this kind of everyday requirement is a lot more intuitive to code. The paucity of the Syncfusion documentation is causing me to regularly have to resort to this forum for solutions to seemingly simple problems.
