GridSortColumnHeaderCellModel and sort icon direction(GGC) URGENT

Hi,

I have a problem with the column header celltype. I want to change the behaviour of the column header cell. When I use the celltype="ColumnHeaderCell"(because this is the only way to show the sort direction icon), I can't change the cell color, appearance. In attachment, a picture of what the column header i want(with the sort direction icon and multisorting number). For this picture, I put "Static" for the celltype. How can i do that without create a new cell model.

Thank you,

Fred

Hi Fred,

Please turn off the themes of column headers in order to apply styles.

Here is the sample code.


gridGroupingControl1.Appearance.ColumnHeaderCell.Themed = false;
gridGroupingControl1.Appearance.ColumnHeaderCell.BackColor = Color.SteelBlue;
gridGroupingControl1.Appearance.ColumnHeaderCell.TextColor = Color.White;


Let us know if this helps.

Thank you for your answer.

I tried what you suggested me but I can't do exactly what I want. I always have a look n feel like a button cell (3D), I want a flat cell(like Static cell) and I does not want any gradient colors.

Can you give me an example. I use grid grouping control.

Thank you,

Fred

Another question,

Can we change the color of the sort triangle and the sort numbering(multicolumn sorting^

Hi Fred,

Thanks for the update.

To have flat column header, please set the celltype as 'static'. You need to handle TableControlCellDrawn event to draw custom-styled sort icons and multicolumn sort position numbers.

Here is a sample.
