Hello Telerik,

I'm using RadGanttView and I want to change the main customtask color. Actually, it is Orange (default).

I know is it possible to Hilight all of Summarys Tasks (my target), but Hilight is Red, and I don't know how I can change his color.

Which way is better ? Change the Hilighted Task Color or apply a color for my custom task ?

The CustomMainTask (Summary Task) is created like this :

var task = new CustomGanttTask();

task.Start = variableAffichee.dateDebut;

task.End = variableAffichee.dateFin;

task.Title = viewModel.ListeVariables.Find(v => v.Id == variableAffichee.idVariable).Code.ToString(); //variable = une tâche principale variableAffichee.codeVariable

task.TitreColonne = task.Title;

task.Description = task.Title; // this.viewModel.ListeVariables.Find(v => v.Id == variableAffichee.idVariable).Code.ToString();

task.BackgroundColor = new SolidColorBrush(new Color { A = 0, R = 0, G = 170, B = 0 }); //System.Windows.Media.Brushes.SteelBlue;

But the last line, BackgroundColor hasn't got any effect on the task. This is the same problem for Description and Title properties.

The CustomTask Class :

public class CustomGanttTask : GanttTask

{

public Brush BackgroundColor { get; set; }

public string Affectation { get; set; }

public int IdCommentaire { get; set; }

public string TitreColonne { get; set; }

}

I attached a screenshot to show you my result.

Can you help me ?

Thank you !

Hello,

In order to achieve the desired result, you will need to redefine the default control template of the SummaryContainer element and set the background binding of the desired state. For your convenience, here's the modified template for the Office_Black theme binding the SummaryContainer's background color to the CustomGanttTask's BackgroundColor property.

<Style TargetType="telerik:SummaryContainer" BasedOn="{StaticResource SummaryContainerStyle}">

<Setter Property="Template">

<Setter.Value>

Please bear in mind that this will work only for the Office_Black theme and if you're using a different one, you should modify that accordingly.

Please let me know if this works for you.
