SelectedBackground for Alternate Row

[Paul]

On GridViewRow I have a style that sets SelectedBackground but it does not work on the alternate rows.

xaml example

<Setter Property="SelectedBackground"
                    Value="Yellow" />

Is there another property that I need to set so that it will also use the SelectedBackground  color when I select an alternate row

(I guessed SelectedAlternateBackground but this isn't present)

 

Thanks

Hello Paul,

To achieve this requirement, you could create a custom Style for the AlternateRowStyle property of RadGridView and set the SelectedBackground to the desired color. By doing so, the value set to the SelectedBackground property will be applied only to the alternating rows.

The following snippets show this suggestion's implementation:

<Style x:Key="AlternateGridViewRowStyle" TargetType="telerik:GridViewRow">
    <Setter Property="Background" Value="LightGray"/>
    <Setter Property="SelectedBackground" Value="Green"/>
</Style>

<telerik:RadGridView ItemsSource="{Binding People}" AlternationCount="2" AlternateRowStyle="{StaticResource AlternateGridViewRowStyle}"/>

The produced result is as follows:

Could you give this suggestion a try?

Brilliant, that's exactly what I was looking for.
