[Solved] change edit cell border colour

[felix]

Hi there, 

I've looked everywhere but cannot find this border (with white background and yellow border) when you are editing a cells value - screen attached.

I would have assumed it would be in the GridViewCell template, under the edit  state, but it isn't. I can't even find it with silverlight spy.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hello Felix,

When a GridViewCell goes into edit mode the TextBox appeared and the eaisest way to change this behavior is to define an editor style for that column which represents a simple style targeted at TextBox.
You can use the following markup:
 

<UserControl
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2008/xaml/presentation"
    x:Class="SilverlightApplication201.MainPage"
    Width="640" Height="480">
    <UserControl.Resources>
        <Style x:Key="a1" TargetType="TextBox">
              <Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Black"/>
                  <Setter Property="Background" Value="Red"/>
            </Style>
</UserControl.Resources>
    <Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White" DataContext="{Binding Source={StaticResource SampleDataSource}}">
        <telerik:RadGridView x:Name="grid"   ItemsSource="{Binding Collection}" Margin="0,0,0,131">
            <telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
                <telerik:GridViewDataColumn EditorStyle="{StaticResource a1}" Header="ID" DataMemberBinding="{Binding Property1}"/>
                <telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="CompanyName" DataMemberBinding="{Binding Property2}"/>
                <telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Address" DataMemberBinding="{Binding Property3}"/>
                <telerik:GridViewHyperlinkColumn Header="Website" DataMemberBinding="{Binding Property4}"/>
                </telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
            </telerik:RadGridView>


    </Grid>
</UserControl>

 
You can customize it to meet your personal requirements.

That works, thanks :)

Is there a way to set this style explicitly? Without having to set the EditorStyle on every column?

Thanks again!

Hi Felix,

 

Just remove the x:Key within the style that is targeted at TextBox and you will not need to specify the EditorStyle property in any column.

Thanks, but that will change all textboxes, not just editorstyle checkboxes. Nevermind, thanks for the help anyway :)
