On Rows that have ConditionalFormattingObject's on one or more Columns, it's ignoring at least the MiddleRight (if not all) value of the TextAlignment Property and left-aligning at least the numeric (if not all types of) Columns. I verified that the TextAlignment Property is set to MiddleRight before and after adding ConditionalFormattingObject's and before and after calling the Show method on the Form.

I have the same issue - seems like the conditional formatting completely overwrites whatever formatting you may have had set beforehand... Like date / number formats and text alignment.

I think it's because the ConditionalFormattingObject's ApplyToRow Property is True and its RowTextAlignment Property is defaulted to MiddleLeft. Is there a way tell RadGridView to ignore or override this Property or set it to a value that means Use Column's Text Alignment?
Just because I want to show the whole Row in a different Color, doesn't mean I want to change the Alignment of the whole Row especially since Color is usually a Column-type neutral attribute and Alignment is usually a Column-type specific attribute (i.e. left for text and right for numeric / date / time). I would expect that this is the most common use of ConditionalFormattingObject's.

I was able to manually implement conditional formatting using the CellFormatting Event. However, that means the user can't add, edit or delete the formatting (unless you also implement your own Conditional Formats Editor) it and it can't be saved / loaded by SaveLayout / LoadLayout (unless you manually add / remove-interpret it before / after the calls to SaveLayout / LoadLayout ). Getting the ConditionalFormattingObject to support changing the whole Row's color without changing its alignment or vice versa would still be the ideal solution. What say ye, Telerik?

Hi guys
RowTextAlignment is applied to all cells affected by the mentioned condition if conditional formatting is set in the current version - Q2 2009. We understand that this behavior is not very convenient, and we will change it in the next release. Unfortunately, there is no easy work-around. Please, excuse us for the inconvenience.
Do not hesitate to contact us again if you have other questions.

Good to hear you're going to change it in the next release. Was that initiated by my post? If so, how about hooking me up with some points for this "Feature Request" which I haven't seen posted elsewhere? Thanks. ;)

Thanks, I verified this has been fixed in the final release of Q3 2009.
I noticed that it appears to have been "fixed" by applying the ConditionalFormattingObject.RowTextAlignment Property when it's different from the default value (MiddleLeft). What if we actually want all Columns on the Row to be aligned MiddleLeft?

Hi Tom Chien,
Thank you for getting back to us.
You are correct. Currently, you cannot apply the default alignment value. We will improve this functionality in one of our next releases.
Write me back if you have any other questions.
Kind regards,
