Selected Row with error style

[Karl B]

I want to see which of my invalid grid rows are selected.

Basically I am wanting the same thing as this post - https://www.telerik.com/forums/selected-row-highlighting but I am using the VisualStudio2013 theme and trying to make a similar change didn't fix it.

Hello Karl B,

I've prepared a small sample project demonstrating how the desired result can be achieved in the VisualStudio2013 theme.

What I've done is to extract the GridViewRow template and modify the order of the composing elements. More specifically, I've placed the Background_Selected rectangle after the Background_Invalid rectangle and before the PART_IndicatorPresenter border.

In addition, I've introduced the following trigger as the control does not enter the Selected visual state if it has an error:

<Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="True">
    <Setter TargetName="Background_Selected" Property="Visibility" Value="Visible" />
</Trigger>

Please note that I've made these modifications by using the implicit styles approach. You should, however, be able to use a similar approach if you're using the StyleManager.

Please have a look and let me know if this would work for you.

I tried running your solution against our installed version- WPF R2 2017 (!) and I got an error.

Cannot find the static member 'MouseOverBackgroundProperty' on the type 'GridViewRow'. SelectedRow_Validation

App.xaml 239

Does this solution require the newest version? I don't think we have plans to update

Hello Karl,

Indeed, the MouseOverBackground property was introduced with our latest service pack (2019.1.220). I have, however, updated the project so that it targets the R2 2017 version of the UI for WPF suite.

Please give this a try and let me know if this updated template works for you.
