One of the Combo box items should show in blue color.

[Administrator]

Hi,

I have one grid and in that grid one of the columns is combo box. For example, Combo box items are 'aa', 'bb', 'cc', 'dd' in these items 'cc' is default item. So default item should be show in blue color.

There is another possibility, user can select default item , then in that case also default value should show in blue color.

I am using Syncfusion 5.1.1.47
Please give one sample.

Thanks

Hi Kishan,

Thanks for your interest in Syncfusion products.

You can handle the PrepareViewStyleInfo event to achieve the desired behavior.

Here is the code:

            this.gridControl1.PrepareViewStyleInfo += new GridPrepareViewStyleInfoEventHandler(gridControl1_PrepareViewStyleInfo);
 void gridControl1_PrepareViewStyleInfo(object sender, GridPrepareViewStyleInfoEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Style.CellType == "ComboBox" && e.Style.Text == "cc")
                e.Style.BackColor = Color.Blue;
        }

Please let me know if it helps.

Hello Subhasheela,

Hello Subhasheela,

Please ignore above reply.
I got your point, it is working fine for back color.
By using above code, if I select default item choice i.e. 'cc' then it is displaying in blue color, if I click again combobox it is showing all items in blue color.

But my requirement is, the item 'cc' should be show in blue color in the combox itself not after selecting it in the grid.
other items colors should not be show in blue color.

Thanks

Hi Kishan,

We regret for the delay caused.

Please try setting the below code snippet:

        {
            if (e.Style.CellType == "ComboBox")
            {
                if (e.Style.Text == "cc")
                {
                    e.Style.BackColor = Color.Blue;
                    e.Style.TextColor = Color.Red;
                }
                else
                {
                    e.Style.BackColor = SystemColors.Window;
                    e.Style.TextColor = SystemColors.ControlText;
                }

Hello Subhasheela,

It is not working.
Already you have sent this code snippet before it.
My requirement is combobox itself shoud show default item choice i.e. 'cc' in blue color not after selecting it and not all items show blue color.
I am using ComboBoxBase class and version 5.1.1.47

Let me know whether you understand or not?

Hi Kishan,

We regret for the long delay caused.

You need to check the CurrentCell.RowIndex and ColIndex in the CurrentCellShowingDropDown event and set ListBoxPart.DrawMode property to DrawMode.Normal. Please try the below code snippet and Let me know if this helps.

Here is the minimal sample that illustrates the same:
