[Solved] Rad grid grouping column header style

[Chakradhar]

HI, 
I'm using rad grid with grouping, i've grouped two columns.

Now i want to give two different colors to those two grouped (App Type, Status) columns.

I need Black color font for Status and Blue color font for App Type.

How to achieve this, please help.

Thanks

Hi Chakradhar,

You can use the ItemDataBound event to get access to each GroupHeaderItem and set its ForeColor conditionally.

For instance:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
    var groupHeaderItem = e.Item as GridGroupHeaderItem;
    if (groupHeaderItem != null)
    {
        if (groupHeaderItem.DataCell.Text.StartsWith("App Type"))
        {
            groupHeaderItem.ForeColor = Color.Blue;
        }
        else if (groupHeaderItem.DataCell.Text.StartsWith("Status"))
        {
            groupHeaderItem.ForeColor = Color.Black;
        }
    }
}

You may also find it useful to check out the Customizing GridGroupHeaderItem article.

I hope this will help you achieve the desired.

Please let me know if any further questions come up.

Kind regards,
