Footer Row can't chagne the FontSize in Style

[danparker276]

I tried both footer row styles and footer cells styles, but I can't seem to change the font size of the footer.  I don't really want to create my own footer template for this.
I tried this:

<Style x:Key="Bold10CellStyle" TargetType="telerik:GridViewFooterCell"  >
    <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="10" />
    <Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Bold" />
</Style>

<Style x:Key="SmallBoldFooter" TargetType="telerik:GridViewFooterRow">
    <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="10" />
    <Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Bold" />
</Style>

Both of these would make my footer bold, but it wouldn't change the fontsize

Hello Dan,


In general with both styles you can set the FontSize property of a single GridViewFooterCell or to all GridViewFooterCells through defining a style targeted at GridViewFooterRow.
Would it be possible to try to isolate the problem in a small runnable project and send it back to us as an attachment in a new support thread?

Hi all,

I know this is many years old but today I ran into the same problem. I have created two styles:

<Style x:Key="SmallThinFooter" TargetType="telerik:GridViewFooterRow" BasedOn="{StaticResource GridViewFooterRowStyle}">
    <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="6"/>
    <Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Thin" />
</Style>

<Style x:Key="SmallThinGroupFooter" TargetType="telerik:GridViewGroupFooterRow" BasedOn="{StaticResource GridViewGroupFooterRowStyle}">
    <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="6"/>
    <Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Thin" />
</Style>

Then set these styles to my RadGridView:

<telerik:RadGridView x:Name="grdSalesOrderDetails" Grid.Row="1"
                     Style="{StaticResource ResourceKey=SalesOrderDetailGrid}"
                     FooterRowStyle="{StaticResource ResourceKey=SmallThinFooter}"
                     GroupFooterRowStyle="{StaticResource ResourceKey=SmallThinGroupFooter}"
                     ItemsSource="{Binding SalesOrderDetailList}"... >

The result see attached screenshot, the FontWeight is "Thin", but FontSize is not changed.

Hello Heiko,

This reproduces only in the Telerik themes that support palettes. In your case this is the Fluent theme or at least it seems so from the picture. In this case, the FontSize is fetched and assigned to the RadGridView elements using one of the palette property. This setting has a higher priority then a Style Setter which is why your code snippet doesn't work. 

To achieve your requirement, you can set the FontSize property of the palette. However, this will replace the size for all Telerik controls that use the palette property.

FluentPalette.Palette.FontSize = 6;  

If you want to set the font size only to the footer elements, you can use the CellLoaded event where you can set the FontSize of the GridViewFooterCell elements in code. This will override the palette setting because it has a higher priority.

private void RadGridView_CellLoaded(object sender, CellEventArgs e)
{
	if (e.Cell is GridViewFooterCell)
	{
		e.Cell.FontSize = 6;
	}
}

I hope this helps.
