Dynamically change cell background color when using conditional styles

[Brian]

We followed the example given for changing the cells background color using conditional formating. How can we change the background color dynamically via code? Each user can set this value in their profile and we need it to change per their profile.

This is the styles we use:

<local:DateConverter x:Key="dateconverter"></local:DateConverter>
<Style x:Key="UpperLimitStyle" TargetType="telerik:GridViewCell">
    <Setter Property="Background" Value="Red" />
</Style>
<Style x:Key="LowerLimitStyle" TargetType="telerik:GridViewCell" >
    <Setter Property="Background" Value="Yellow" />
</Style>
<Style x:Key="NormalStyle" TargetType="telerik:GridViewCell" >
</Style>

So we want to change the "Red" from the c# code behind page.

Thanks in advanced for the help.

Hello Vanya,
This seems only to allow to set the style at loading.
How can I update the style afterwards? for example, I want to change the color of the row depending on the values of my item.
One of the field is a checkbox. When I check or uncheck it the color of my row should be updated...
Any hint?
thank you...
John.

Hi John,


What version of RadGridView you are currently using? In our Q3 release the issue is resolved and the StyleSelector's are applied automatically since the INotifyPropertyChanged interface is implemented.
If you are using any other version I would recommend you to explicitly call RagGridView's Rebind method to reapply the StyleSelector.


All the best,

Hello Vanya,
You are right Q3 builds solve the issue perfectly.
Thank you very much.
