Hi,
i am using several GridViewImageColumn columns in my grid, the columns show enumeration values as images, the images are sourced using a converter on the binding of the column. The images show up great in the column, no issues there. But when i group by one of those columns, the group header reads System.Windows.Media.Imaging.BitmapImage., which is obviously because of a ToString() done on the image.
Is it possible to show an image instead of text in the group header? When the grouping starts (after i drag the column into the grouping header of the grid), the value converter of the binding gets called the correct number fo times and the correct images are returned. Maybe i am missing a step, maybe there is another template i need to set on the column?
Thanks :)

Hi Shane,
You can define GroupHeaderTemplate and apply the same converter. Here is an example:
<telerikGrid:RadGridView ItemsSource="{Binding}" AutoGenerateColumns="False">
<telerikGrid:RadGridView.GroupHeaderTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Image Source="{Binding ...}" />
</DataTemplate>
</telerikGrid:RadGridView.GroupHeaderTemplate>
...
You may need however to hide/show this image dynamically if you have grouping on other (not image) columns.
