Hello, I couldn't find an answer to my question so I will create a new thread here.
My ultragrid has a different format(color in this case) for every row depending on the information in certain columns. Any color has a meaning and I want to keep track of the color in the row even when making a selection. For that purpose I used the SelectionOverlay property:
http://help.infragistics.com/Help/Doc/WinForms/2012.1/CLR2.0/HTML/WinGrid_Enable_Selection_Overlay_for_Selected_Cells.html
Like this:
Grid.DisplayLayout.SelectionOverlayColor = Color.Transparent;Grid.DisplayLayout.SelectionOverlayBorderThickness = 1;
This is working fine for most of the rows but Grouped rows don't seem to be affected by the OverlayBorder property.
Is there any way to apply this property also to grouped rows?
Thanks in advance.
Hello Francisco,
Thank you for contacting Infragistics.
The SelectionOverlayColor only applies to cells, not group-by rows. It's also impossible to select group-by rows and their children.
I recommend submitting this as a new product idea at http://ideas.infragistics.com so you and other users can discuss and vote on the idea and so our product management team can know that the functionality is desired by our customers.
Please let me know if you have any other questions about this.
Thanks! I will do. Is there any other way besides the selection overlay to make the user notice that they selected the group-by row but without changing it's appearance?
Regards.
Thank you for your response.
Currently, the only way a group-by row can show that it is selected is by changing its appearance.
Thanks Dave, I will try a workaround then.
