Thanks Thomas. No, the constructor the CellStyle is private. You can't New it. I'll try doing it in the designer and adding it as an extra style. Thanks for the warning on the editing bit too.

 

It just seems such a dumb object model. You'd think the style of a cell would be a property of the cell, etc. not a method call on the grid itself.

Hey Greg,

 

Looks like in your code you didn't "New" the CellStyle (not too sure if you can). I tried many permutations, but the one I got to work "well enough" was to create a custom cell style in the C1 "Styles" dialog at design time ("CustomStyle1"), and then set the cell to have that style with SetCellStyle via code at runtime:

 

TestFlexGrid.SetCellStyle(somerow, somecolumn, TestFlexGrid.Styles("CustomStyle1"))

 

This works but watch out that you don't set things like "AllowEditing" and "ComboList" in your new style, they will override the default "Normal" settings.

 

Cheers,

Hi Thomas,

 

I spoke too soon. I tried:

Dim testCellStyle As C1.Win.C1FlexGrid.CellStyle

then later did

testCellStyle = TestFlexGrid.GetCellStyle(somerow,somecolumn)

testCellStyle.ForeColor = Color.Red

TestFlexGrid.SetCellStyle(somerow,somecolumn,testCellStyle)

and it whinges at setting the color that the object doesn't exist. The cell at somerow,somecolumn did exist.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Greg

Thanks Thomas! I like using it in examples some times and it's very capable but its object model and I don't see eye to eye.

Hi Greg,

 

Short answer - you need to set up a new custom style with the properties you want, then set the cell's style to that (can be done in code using grid.SetCellStyle).

Hi Folks,

 

Anyone know how to set the color of a particular cell (either background or foreground) in the componentone flexgrid?

 

Thanks,
