Hi Dave,

You can use a style for the DataRecordCellArea to set the colouring for different states of records e.g:

<Style TargetType="{x:Type igDP:DataRecordCellArea}" >

<Setter Property="BorderActiveBrush" Value="White" />

      <Setter Property="BorderSelectedBrush" Value="White" />

      <Setter Property="BackgroundActive" Value="White" />

      <Setter Property="BackgroundSelected" Value="White" />

</Style>

Hope this is what you needed.

Regards Petar. 

Well, it turns out that I did not understand exactly what I wanted. It turns out I do want to be able to select a record (more specifically, I want to select a cell). I just don't want the background color of the cell or record to change when I do so. I will do what I need to by handling CellActivated, but again, I just don't want the control to change the background color of the record / cell. Thanks, Dave

Hi Dave,

The active record is the record you are, lets say, currently working on (the one you type text into, select dates in and so on). On the other hand the selected records along with selected cells are colections representing what you have marked in the grid.

The misunderstanding comes from the clicking action which triggers both states and that you have to activate a record in order to include it in the selected collection. E.g. if you hold down the Ctrl key and start clicking on the recordSelectors only the last one you have clikced will be your ActiveRecord but all others including it will be selected.

Hope this makes things clearer.

Regards Petar.

Thanks, that did exactly what I requested. Another poster had responded indicating that a record being active does not necessarily mean that it is selected. This leads me to ask... What is the difference between an active record and a selected record? Thanks, Dave
