Need to customize Grid Header height in WPF (Material Theme)

[Monica]

Telerik Team,
In my project I have used material theme for the Telerik grid ( Xaml approach )and I want to adjust the height of header row. To achieve this If I Modify the height in common template, It will be applied to all the pages, Is there any way to modify the header height and header cell height specific to the page ? 

If so, please let me know how to change the height. Thanks in advance

Hello Monica,

One way to achieve your requirement is to modify the ControlTemplate of RadGridView, as you already mentioned. To apply it only for the page you want, you can merge a ResourceDictionary with the custom template only in the Resources of the view where the template should be applied. For example, if the custom template is defined in a ResourceDictionary named "CustomGridViewStyles", you can merge it in the UserControl, the panel (like Grid) or the RadGridView resources. 

<UserControl.Resources>
    <ResourceDictionary Source="CustomGridViewStyles.xaml" />
</UserControl.Resources>

However, for your requirement it would be easier to use Styles targeting the GridViewHeaderCell and GridViewHeaderRow elements. For example:

<telerik:RadGridView Margin="5" GroupRenderMode="Flat">
	<telerik:RadGridView.Resources>
		<Style TargetType="telerik:GridViewHeaderCell">                    
			<Setter Property="MinHeight" Value="0"/>
		</Style>
	</telerik:RadGridView.Resources>
	<telerik:RadGridView.HeaderRowStyle>
		<Style TargetType="telerik:GridViewHeaderRow">
			<Setter Property="Height" Value="35" />
			<Setter Property="MinHeight" Value="0" />                    
		</Style>
	</telerik:RadGridView.HeaderRowStyle>
	<telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
		<telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Name" />
		<telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Established"/>
		<telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Stadium Capacity"/>
	</telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
</telerik:RadGridView>

I hope that helps.
