Setting row color based on cell value data trigger doesn't work with custom theme/style.

   We used to be able to have this Data Trigger work and it still does if we were to use any of the pre-packaged themes.  However we have developed our theme/style and now this data trigger no longer works for setting a row's background color.  We are using alternate row color so I fail to see how to apply the possible Converter strategy as an alternate solution that I've seen in other posts.

 

 

<telerik:RadGridView Height="200" Width="545" Name="gvNoteList" Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="1" RowStyle="{StaticResource GridViewRowStyle}" AlternateRowStyle="{StaticResource GridViewAlternateRowStyle}" Style="{StaticResource GridReadOnly}" SelectionChanged="gvNoteList_SelectionChanged">

 

 

 

<telerik:RadGridView.Resources>

 

 

 

<Style TargetType="{x:Type telerik:GridViewRow}">

 

 

 

<Style.Triggers>

 

 

 

<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding Path=IsSticky}" Value="True">

 

 

 

<DataTrigger.Setters>

 

 

 

<Setter Property="Background" Value="#FFFF80" />

 

 

 

<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="#000000" />

 

 

 

<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="12" />

 

 

 

</DataTrigger.Setters>

 

 

 

</DataTrigger>

 

 

 

</Style.Triggers>

 

 

 

</Style>

 

 

 

</telerik:RadGridView.Resources>

 

 

 

</telerik:RadGridView>

Hello Curt,

 
You can achieve the desired effect by having an AlternateRowStyle based on your own custom RowStyle that defines your DataTriggers like so:

<Grid.Resources>
        <Style TargetType="{x:Type telerik:GridViewRow}" x:Key="GridRowStyle">
            <Style.Triggers>
                <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding Title}" Value="Mr.">
                    <DataTrigger.Setters>
                        <Setter Property="Background" Value="#FF6394CE" />
                    </DataTrigger.Setters>
                </DataTrigger>
                <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding Title}" Value="Ms.">
                    <DataTrigger.Setters>
                        <Setter Property="Background" Value="#FFE26DB4" />
                    </DataTrigger.Setters>
                </DataTrigger>
            </Style.Triggers>
        </Style>
        <Style x:Key="GridAlternateRowStyle" BasedOn="{StaticResource GridRowStyle}" TargetType="{x:Type telerik:GridViewRow}">
            <Setter Property="Background" Value="Gray" />
        </Style>
</Grid.Resources>

and then just reference them from your RadGridView:
<telerik:RadGridView ItemsSource="{Binding Customers}" x:Name="radGrid" RowStyle="{StaticResource GridRowStyle}" AlternateRowStyle="{StaticResource GridAlternateRowStyle}" AlternationCount="2">
This way your AlternateRowStyle inherits the DataTriggers from your custom RowStyle.

Hi
How do I set the edited cell foreground color to blue dynamically until I submit the form in WPF? I am using Telerik.RadGridView.

here is what I tried:

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="New Value" DataMemberBinding="{Binding Path=NewLR}" TextWrapping="Wrap" IsReadOnly="False">
<telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellStyle>
<Style TargetType="telerik:GridViewCell">
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding HasChanged}" Value="True">
<Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Bold" />
<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="Blue" />
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellStyle>
</telerik:GridViewDataColumn>

Hi,

I am sending you a sample project, which demonstrates how to achieve the desired functionality. Basically, you need to mark a cell as edited. For this reason, you can have a boolean property of your business object which will hold this information. Then you can change it when CellEditEnded event of RadGridView fires.

Thanks Yoan for a quick response.  But, I seem to have an issue as the Style gets lost when I move to next cell.  I have three editable cells that I need to change the foreground color when the value changes. I need to maintain the style on all changed columns until I click the button. here is my code for your review...

in xaml:

<UserControl.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary>
<ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
<ResourceDictionary Source="../../Resources/StyleResources.xaml" />
</ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
<converters:StringToVisibilityConverter x:Key="StringToVisibilityConverter"/>
<converters:BooleanToColorConverter x:Key="BooleanToColorConverter"/>
<converters:CellStyleSelector x:Key="LRCellStyleSelector">
<converters:CellStyleSelector.LREditedStyle>
<Style TargetType="telerik:GridViewCell">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Yellow"/>
<Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Bold"/>
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="12"/>
</Style>
</converters:CellStyleSelector.LREditedStyle>
</converters:CellStyleSelector>
<converters:CellStyleSelector x:Key="TargetCellStyleSelector">
<converters:CellStyleSelector.TargetEditedStyle>
<Style TargetType="telerik:GridViewCell">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Yellow"/>
<Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Bold"/>
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="12"/>
</Style>
</converters:CellStyleSelector.TargetEditedStyle>
</converters:CellStyleSelector>
<converters:CellStyleSelector x:Key="URCellStyleSelector">
<converters:CellStyleSelector.UREditedStyle>
<Style TargetType="telerik:GridViewCell">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Yellow"/>
<Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Bold"/>
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="12"/>
</Style>
</converters:CellStyleSelector.UREditedStyle>
</converters:CellStyleSelector>
</ResourceDictionary>
</UserControl.Resources>

//GridViewDataColumns

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="New Target" DataMemberBinding="{Binding Path=NewTarget}" IsReadOnly="False" CellStyleSelector="{StaticResource TargetCellStyleSelector}"></telerik:GridViewDataColumn>
<telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="New High Limit" DataMemberBinding="{Binding Path=NewUR}" IsReadOnly="False" CellStyleSelector="{StaticResource URCellStyleSelector}"></telerik:GridViewDataColumn>

xaml.cs

private void SpecGrid_CellEditEnded(object sender, Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridViewCellEditEndedEventArgs e)
{
OperationStepInfoViewModel item = e.Cell.ParentRow.Item as OperationStepInfoViewModel;
if (item != null)
{
if (e.Cell.Column.UniqueName == "NewLR")
{
if (e.OldData.ToString() != e.NewData.ToString())
item.LRCellChanged = true;
else
item.LRCellChanged = false;
}
if (e.Cell.Column.UniqueName == "NewTarget")
{
if (e.OldData.ToString() != e.NewData.ToString())
item.TargetCellChanged = true;
else
item.TargetCellChanged = false;
}
if (e.Cell.Column.UniqueName == "NewUR")
{
if (e.OldData.ToString() != e.NewData.ToString())
item.URCellChanged = true;
else
item.URCellChanged = false;
}
}

}

CellStyleSelector.cs:

namespace SpecificationAssistant.DataConverters
{
public class CellStyleSelector : StyleSelector
{
public override Style SelectStyle(object item, DependencyObject container)
{
if (item is OperationStepInfoViewModel)
{
OperationStepInfoViewModel opsivw = item as OperationStepInfoViewModel;
Style style = new Style();
if (opsivw.LRCellChanged)
style = LREditedStyle;
if (opsivw.URCellChanged)
style = UREditedStyle;
if (opsivw.TargetCellChanged)
style = TargetEditedStyle;
return style;
}
else
return null;
}
 
public Style LREditedStyle { get; set; }
public Style TargetEditedStyle { get; set; }
public Style UREditedStyle { get; set; }
}
}

Please advise.

Hi Yoan,

It was a mistake in the logic on my part.  I have changed the logic by creating three separate styles for each cell and it is working great now.  If there is a better solution please advise but otherwise thanks so much for your help.  It is working like a charm!
