[Solved] RadGridView RowIndicator & GridviewHeaderrow

[st]

Hello,

We are using your controls in Silverlight with VisualStudio 2010.

I do have some problems changing the appearance of your RadGridView.

First i tryed to change the style by setting the background.
For Headercells and Rows the background was set.
Then i tryed to change the borders also, but the changed were not taking any effect.

This is how i am setting the background :
<Style TargetType="telerikGVR:GridViewHeaderRow">
   <Setter Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource HeaderBackgroundNormal}"/>
</Style>
i tryed also

<Style TargetType="telerikGVR:GridViewHeaderRow">
   <Setter Property="Background" Value="{StaticResource HeaderBackgroundNormal}"/>
   <Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="0"/>
   <Setter Property="BorderBrush" Value="Transparent"/>
</Style>

But still just the background ist changed.
Same for HeaderCells.

I had even more problems changing the Rowindicator
by changing the style für the TargetType "IndicatorPresenter".
But for this object not even the background was changed.

We are not using Micosoft Expression Blend and ur documentation just shows
how to adjust your controls using this programm.

I have successfully changed die GridViewHeaderCells style, because there was an example in your forum
where the default style of this object was given in an example project.
Unfortunatly i did not find anything fitting to the RowIndicator and to the GridviewHeaderrow.

I would be pleased if you paste the default style so i can copy and adjust it manually.

Hello St,

Considering the template structure of the different RadGridView's parts, you cannot change the inner border elements by defining a simple style. In this particular case you have to edit  template of the GridViewHeaderRow to achieve the desired result. The IndicatorPresenter is responsible for displaying the Indicators in GridViewRow. If you need to change one of those indicators, you have to edit the template of GridViewRow and to modify the paths contained in it or anything else you need.

You may find attached sample project that demonstrates the approaches above.
