Formatting Groupby box
posted

Hi,

I'm using groupby box in the runtime (in design time it is set as hidden = true). I group the grid based on a column and set summaries to using

e.Layout.Bands[0].Summaries.Add() method..

I want to format the groupby row appearance. I tried setting

grid.DisplayLayout.GroupByBox.Appearance.BackColor = Color.LightSteelBlue;

grid.DisplayLayout.GroupByBox.BandLabelAppearance.BackColor =Color.LightSteelBlue;

grid.DisplayLayout.GroupByBox.ButtonBorderStyle = UIElementBorderStyle.Rounded3;

But nothing takes effect.

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks.,

    The GroupByBox is a box at the top of the grid where users can drop columns to group them.

    It sounds like what you want to do is color the GroupByRows, which are the rows that appear in the grid for each group of data. So you want to use the GroupByRowAppearance or perhaps handle the InitializeGroupByRow event and set the Appearance on the individual row.
