Selected row highlighting off

[Thomas Derenthal]

I do not want the selected row in a grid to turn dark. How do I turn that off?

OK, then. I will do that. However, I still can't find a way to turn off the row highlighting. I don't think that this question is directly related to my other posts. 

In any case, can you tell me how to turn off highlighting for a selected row?

Hi,

This question was answered in this forum thread:
http://www.telerik.com/forums/row-select-only-by-using-gridclientselectcolumn

Did you try the suggestion from the forum post pointed there?

In case it is not working please elaborate a bit more what happened after you add the CSS code provided by Shinu.

This worked to prevent highlighting of  selected row - just what I needed. However, I have two grids - one parent, one child - I still need to have row highlighting in the parent. Is there a way to apply this no-highlighting style to only one grid - the child grid?

Hi,

You can prevent highlighting of selected row in the child grid by setting custom CssClass
to the selected item of the nested Grid as shown below:

<SelectedItemStyle CssClass="selectedrow" />

div.RadGrid .selectedrow
{
    background-color: none;
    background: None;
}

This way the css code will not override the selected color of the parent grid.

This works exactly as I need. Thank you.

I spoke too soon. The highlighting works, but when I select a row in the lower grid by clicking the checkbox, the values in some columns disappear. See attached screenshots.

Hi,

Can you confirm that you have not call DataBind() method anywhere in the code behind? If this is not the case we will need to replicate the problem locally in order to advice you how to resolve it.
