Hi Kennet,

If you want to modify the appearance of the selected row, you can predefine its template. There you should modify the Border element named Background_Selected in the way you need. I can suggest you to check this help article for a reference. If you cannot extract the template of the GridViewRow with MS Blend, then you can find it locally inside the Themes folder, the full path would be something like so:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Telerik\RadControls for Silverlight Q2 2013\Themes\Windows8\Themes\Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.xaml. Inside the xaml file you will find all the control templates.

Hi Kennet,

Actually, you can find the template locally, inside the Themes folder, the full path would be something like so: C:\Program Files (x86)\Telerik\RadControls for Silverlight Q2 2013\Themes\Windows8\Themes\Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.xaml. Inside the xaml file you will find all the control templates. However, I have attached a sample project showing you the approach.
