[Solved] Binding in Background on columns

[luke]

Hi, i've problem with bind color to Background of my column. I receive data from service, datacontract contain property SetColor of type  "Color", when im using binding like this, color won't bind. But when im set fixed color like Backgroud="Red"  its working.

 <telerikGridView:GridViewDataColumn  x:Name="ColorColumn2" Header="Test"  DataMemberBinding="{Binding TestData,StringFormat='F0'}" Background="{Binding SetColor}">

Hello,

 If SetColor is a property of your data item this will not work since the DataContext of the columns is the same as the grid DataContext. You can define CellTemplate with desired control (for example TextBlock) and bind this control Background.
