[Solved] Change row fore color in RadGrid

[Shiza A V]

How to change the radgrid row  - dataitem forecolor accoring to the value of a column.

For example: I have a column with name "type" in my radgrid.

if type column has value "o" - I want to set the entire row forecolor to blue

if type column has value "p" - I want to set the entire row forecolor to green

Please let me know how to do this.

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Setting forecolor like this    dataBoundItem("ON_date").ForeColor = Drawing.Color.DarkGreen   worked

But setting the enitre row forecolor with css is not working and 

Similarly setting forecolor of  dataBoundItem("N_Desc").ForeColor = Drawing.Color.DarkGreen  does not work. This N_Desc is a bound column in detail table of radgrid

Thanks

Hi Shiza,

Probably you have conflicting CSS styles in the RadGrid skin, the web page, or the RadGrid declaration. Please use Firebug or a similar tool to inspect the rendered HTML output and applied CSS styles.

If you still cannot determine the cause of the problem after trying Firebug, send us a runnable web page in a support ticket.

Hi, how can be changed the color of the hilight of currently client-side selectected row in RadGrid, if skin is used(wanted to override the current skin color for hilight)

Hi Dimo,

In order to override a RadGrid (embedded) skin, you have to use a CSS rule with a higher specificity. For more information, please refer to:

http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/grdcreatingnewskins.html

In short, this is what you need:

div.RadGrid_SkinName  tr.rgSelectedRow
{
          background: ...... ;
}


All the best,
