Hello,

I have a DataGridView with TelerikMetro theme. I've set EnableHotTracking to False, but header cells still follow mouse hover events, e.g. border around header cell is highlighted when mouse is over header cell.
I need to disable that HotTracking for header and also make header non-clickable.

Thank you.

Hello Dmitry,

Thank you for writing.

To disable sorting when you click on header cell, you should set the EnableSorting property to false. For example:
this.radGridView1.EnableSorting = false;

The cleanest way to achieve the desired styling of header cell is by small modification of the theme. To accomplish that, you should remove the styling of GridHeaderCellElement.MouseOver and GridHeaderCellElement.MouseDown states. Attached you can find an image which points where you can find these states.

In this documentation article you can read how to use custom themes: http://www.telerik.com/help/winforms/themes-using-custom-themes.html

I hope this helps.

Regards,
Anton
