Is character Shading supported in Gridview Cell ?

Hi,
Is character shading (not background color) supported in Gridview cell (similar to character shading in Microsoft Word) ?

Hello,

I guess that you are targetting an effect similar to the one that is illustrated on the attached image. You can achieve it with a custom DataTemplate, like this:

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding StadiumCapacity}"
                                            Header="Stadium"
                                            DataFormatString="{}{0:N0}">
                    <telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>
                        <DataTemplate>
                            <Grid Background="Red" HorizontalAlignment="Left">
                                <ContentControl Content="{Binding StadiumCapacity}" HorizontalAlignment="Left" />
                            </Grid>
                        </DataTemplate>
                    </telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>
                </telerik:GridViewDataColumn>

Can you please confirm, whether this is the desired effect?
