GridViewColorColumn modifying RadColorDialog Colors

[Binu]

I have RadGridView with GridViewColorColumn . The default color picker dialog is far more advanced than what i need. I just need to allow user to pick basic colors. I see a ENUMS in RadColorDialog  class such as ShowBasicColors, ShowSystemColors, ShowWebColors, ShowProfessionalColors. 

Question is, how do i modify this behavior from Grid?

 

i need to show only basic colors.

 

please help.

Hello Binu,

Thank you for writing.

You can access the editor in the CellEditorInitialized event. For example:

private void RadGridView1_CellEditorInitialized(object sender, GridViewCellEventArgs e)
{
    var editor = e.ActiveEditor as GridColorPickerEditor;
    if (editor != null)
    {
        var element = editor.EditorElement as GridColorPickerElement;
        RadColorDialogForm form = element.ColorDialog.ColorDialogForm as RadColorDialogForm;
        form.ShowCustomColors = false;
        form.ShowProfessionalColors = false;
        form.ShowSystemColors = false;
    }
}

Please let me know if there is something else I can help you with.

Hello Yanick,

Now you should use RadColorPickerEditorElement instead.

Should you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.
