how to Change border color active subitem in listviewdataitem?

[Khanh]

Hi, I have two questions that need help regarding effects on listview
Question one: I tried changing the border color of active subitem using events: cellformating, VisualItemFormatting but I still haven't found a way to enable it.
Question two: How can I stop highlight current listviewitem? I want after running listview code, there will be no more highlighted items.
I have uploaded photos for you to visualize.
Thank you.

Hello Khanh,

1. You can use the CellFormatting event for this. Here is how to style the current cell: 

private void RadListView1_CellFormatting(object sender, ListViewCellFormattingEventArgs e)
{
    var cell = e.CellElement as DetailListViewDataCellElement;

    if (cell != null && cell.Row.Current && cell.Data.Current)
    {
        e.CellElement.BorderColor = Color.Red;                 
    }
    else
    {
        e.CellElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.BorderColorProperty, ValueResetFlags.Local);
    }
}

Since the entire row is styled at once you can use the VisualItemFormatting to set the BackColor:

private void RadListView1_VisualItemFormatting(object sender, ListViewVisualItemEventArgs e)
{
    e.VisualItem.DrawFill = false;
}

I hope this helps. Should you have any other questions, do not hesitate to ask.

Hi, Dimitar.i get this error when run this line:
var cell = e.CellElement as DetailListViewDataCellElement;

System.InvalidCastException: 'Unable to cast object of type' Telerik.WinControls.UI.DetailListViewHeaderCellElement 'to type' Telerik.WinControls.UI.DetailListViewDataCellElement '.'

and in the second question, I want to be that after selecting the item (highlighted in blue) and I run the code, the item will return to the unselected state. so I thought I couldn't use VisualItemFormatting because I couldn't get an instance of ListViewVisualItemEventArgs.
Here my listview uses breeze theme
Can you check it again for me?

Hi, after checking again i made a mistake, i corrected my code and now your code worked for the first question.
with the second question: I have 1 button and button_click event
I want after clicking the button, the itemselected in listview is no longer highlighted so in the button_click code event I want to add a line at the last of procedule like:
sub button_click (...)
'my code
'.....
e.VisualItem.DrawFill = false '<<<<----- 
end sub
I want the effects to return to the same form when the form started

Thanks.

Hello Khanh,

You cannot access the visual elements outside of the event handler. You can clear the selection which should have the desired effect: 

private void radButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    
    radListView1.CurrentItem = null;
    radListView1.CurrentColumn = null;
    radListView1.SelectedItem = null;
}

I hope this helps. Should you have any other questions, do not hesitate to ask.
