Set alternating row colour red and blue

[Sunil]

Hi,
I am using RadGridview control. I have set EnableAlternatingRowColour =true. It's showing alternate rows in different colour. I want to show my alternate rows in Red and Blue colours. How can I do this.

Hi Sunil,

You can set the AlternatingRowColor property, If you just want to change the color for the odd rows. Here is a sample:

((GridTableElement)this.radGridView1.GridElement).AlternatingRowColor = Color.Red;

You have two options, if you want to change the both colors:

1. Create or modify an existing theme by using the Visual Style Builder
2. Handle the RowFormatting event and set desired colors. The code snippet below demonstrates how to do this:

void radGridView1_RowFormatting(object sender, RowFormattingEventArgs e)
{
    e.RowElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.BackColorProperty);
    e.RowElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.GradientStyleProperty);
    e.RowElement.ResetValue(LightVisualElement.DrawFillProperty);

    if (!e.RowElement.IsCurrent && !e.RowElement.IsSelected)
    {
        if (e.RowElement.IsOdd)
        {
            e.RowElement.BackColor = Color.Red;
        }
        else
        {
            e.RowElement.BackColor = Color.Blue;
        }
    }
    else
    {
        e.RowElement.BackColor = Color.Yellow;
    }
    e.RowElement.DrawFill = true;
    e.RowElement.GradientStyle = GradientStyles.Solid;
}
