Style a header based on value of grouping

[William]

Is it possible to style a group header based on the value of the grouping?

Suppose I have some bank accounts that are grouped by a type, eg checking,savings, etc.

Is it possible to have the Checking header be displayed with one color, and the Savings header displayed with another?

Thank you

Hello William,

Thanks for writing.



Yes, you can use a GroupHeaderTemplateSelector and return different DataTemplate instances for the different grouping values via it.

Could you post or direct me to an example?

The specific area where I am running into problems is the SelectTemplate method on the selector. I don't know what type the incoming object is.

Thank you.

Hello William,

Thanks for writing back.



This object should be of type DataGroup. This type exposes the group key so you can decide which template to return.



Let me know if you have additional questions here.
