Hello Manoj,
I am just checking the progress of this issue and was wondering, if you managed to achieve your goal, or if you need any further assistance on
the matter.
If the above suggestion helped you solve your issue, please verify the thread as answered, so other users may take better advantage of it.
I have been looking into your enquiry and I can suggest going through this article in msdn: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms745683.aspx , to get an overall understanding of styling in WPF. Regarding your particular sample, if you place this Style like:
<Style TargetType="{x:Type igDP:XamDataGrid}"> <Setter Property="FieldLayoutSettings" > <Setter.Value> <igDP:FieldLayoutSettings HeaderPrefixAreaDisplayMode="FieldChooserButton" /> </Setter.Value> </Setter> </Style>
in the Resources of a parent control, it will affect all XamDataGrid in it and in its child container controls. If you want to affect all the application’s XamDataGrid’s you can put a Style in the Applicaiotn.xaml. Here are also a couple of links on RecourdeDictionaries: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.resourcedictionary.aspx , http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa350178.aspx that should be helpful.
Please let me know, if I can be of any further assistance on the matter.
