Use 'ColumnSpan' with column footers?

[Larry]

It doesn't seem this is possible, correct? Could it be added as a feature request?

For example, I may want to use the footer row as a type of status message and would like to have the entire grid width to work with.

Thanks,

Hello Larry,

Thank you for the question.

For the feature request about ColumnSpan to be used with column footers, could you describe what is the exact scenario you want to achieve (attach an image of the use-case)? In general, the footer is applied to a concrete column. This is by design and control's implementation. All properties available for columns are described here: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/maui/controls/datagrid/columns/overview 

About the status message - you could use DataGrid Aggregates. They add a row in the DataGrid and you can display any custom message you want. I am sending you a link to our example: Aggregates Example. I am attaching an image as well to see the result from the example. You can also apply style to the aggregates: DataGrid Aggregates Styling.

Let me know if this works for you. I am looking forward to your answer.

Regards,
Maria
