Foreground property not working GridViewHeaderCell

[Joshua]

Hello I have been trying to style the GridViewHeaderCell in my gridview, but the text will not take the foreground that I assign. How can I achieve this if I don't change the foreground the default foreground for the grid is too dark to read. Please help thank you.

I added the namespace to both the View and Resource :

 

 

xmlns

 

 

:telerikGridView="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView"

 

 

 

 

 

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="ZipCode" HeaderCellStyle="{StaticResource StandardHeaderCellStyle}" DataMemberBinding="{Binding Something,TargetNullValue=''}" Width="75"/>

<

 

 

Style x:Key="StandardHeaderCellStyle" TargetType="telerik:GridViewHeaderCell">

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="White" />

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="14" />

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

<Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Bold" />

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

<Setter Property="FontStyle" Value="Italic" />

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

</Style>

Hi Joshua,

I believe because I have a style setup for my textblock the grid is using that which is why my text kept showing up as dark, Once I plug in the xaml below :

 

 

 

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn Width="110" DataMemberBinding="{Binding FirstName,TargetNullValue=''}">

 

 

 

 

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn.Header>

 

 

 

 

<TextBlock Text="First Name" Style="{StaticResource StandardGridHeaderStyle}"/>

 

 

 

 

</telerik:GridViewDataColumn.Header>

 

 

 

 

</telerik:GridViewDataColumn>

 

I get the results I want applying the StandardGridHeaderStyle. Thanks for your response.
