Hello Michael,
You can inspect the rendered classes on the respective elements and devise CSS rules to provide the desired coloring. The following blog post can help you get started with this: https://www.telerik.com/blogs/improve-your-debugging-skills-with-chrome-devtools#see-the-applied-styles.
For your convenience, I created a basic example on top of our declarative relations demo. Below you will find attached the results of the rules below. You can extend/change them to match your needs and also you can use the CssClass of a concrete table view to set a custom class name to cascade through. In the ItemDataBound event you can also easily set classes to entire rows if you need that.
Regards,
Marin Bratanov
