BackColor of RadGridView when state is IsBusy

[Sumati]

Right now whenever my grid is loaded I get a progress indicator (round blue ring) which is fine and back color changes to dark blue.

I want to change the back color to transparent. How can I change the back color when IsBusy = true?

Hi Sumati,

Do change that background you will need to edit the template of the RadGridView, find the GridViewLoadingIndicator control, edit in turn its template and change the background to transparent. 

Attached I am sending you a sample application which achieves just that. I hope you will find it useful.

in the styles. Your solution will also not open. Any idea to make it work on said environments

Hello Sumati,

At this point there is nothing fancy in migrating to SL3 version. Basically you just need to copy/paste the XAML and update namespaces where needed to get it to work.

Anyway I have updated the sample for SL and VS2008 and you can find it attached.

I was able to solve this issue:

I removed the following code from the attached project and it is working now:

telerik

 

:StyleManager.Theme="{StaticResource Theme}"

 

Thanks
