Set background in celltemplate

[John]

I have a problem with setting background color of cell.

Currently I have :

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding Profit}"
                           IsReadOnly="True" Header="Profit" >
                            <telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>
                                <DataTemplate>
                                    <TextBlock Text="{Binding Profit}" Width="60"  Background="{Binding Color2}"/>
                                </DataTemplate>

                            </telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>
                        </telerik:GridViewDataColumn>

but of cource it doesn't work bacause of setting background at textblock node.

Where I must put

Background="{Binding Color2}"

to have demanding color of cell?

Or it would be great to have solution to set background color for entire row.

Best regards

Hi John,

I would recommend you to use a RowStyleSelector or CellStyleSelector instead. Please take a look at our online documentation and demos for a reference.
