[Solved] Changing GridViewCell.BackgroundProperty doesn't work after update telerik controls

[marcos]

Hey,

I've recently updated the telerik controls from 2010Q3 to 2011 Q1. In my project I bind the cellstyleselector property of the gridviewdatacolumn to a class (the reference is set in the resources)... I do this by

<telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
    <telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding Path=XYZ}" Header="ABC" CellStyleSelector="{StaticResource myStyle}" IsReadOnly="True" />

where myStyle is more or less this:

public static void SetStyle(DependencyObject container, decimal limit, ThresholdSettings _val)
        {
            if (limit >= (decimal)_val.TopValue)
            {
                container.SetValue(GridViewCell.BackgroundProperty, StringToColor.Convert(_val.FirstColor));
            }
            else
            {
                if (limit <= (decimal)_val.BottomValue)
                    container.SetValue(GridViewCell.BackgroundProperty, StringToColor.Convert(_val.ThirdColor));
                else
                    container.SetValue(GridViewCell.BackgroundProperty, StringToColor.Convert(_val.SecondColor));
            }
        }

Before the update everything works fine and the background of the cells where green, yellow or red. But now nothing is coloured... Do you have an idea why an how to solve this problem???

Hello,

 We have similar example where everything works as expected. Can you send us small runnable project where we can reproduce this wrong behavior compared to the previous Q?

Best wishes,
