How to set DataTable background image in Flutter SfDataGrid?
Set the background image to the Flutter DataTable by wrapping the DataGrid inside the Container, and set the color as transparent for rows and header. Then add the image to the image property of the decoration box in the Container.
STEP 1: Create the folder inside the application, and add the image inside that folder. Also, add the image path in the pubspec.yaml file.

STEP 2: Create an EmployeeDataGridSource class that extends with the DataGridSource for mapping data to the SfDataGrid. Override the buildRow method, and return the DataGridRowAdapter. Set the row background color as transparent using the color property of the DataGridRowAdapter.
class EmployeeDataGridSource extends DataGridSource { /// Creates the employee data source class with required details. EmployeeDataGridSource({required List<Employee> employeeData}) { _employeeData = employeeData .map<DataGridRow>((e) => DataGridRow(cells: [ DataGridCell<int>(columnName: 'id', value: e.id), DataGridCell<String>(columnName: 'name', value: e.name), DataGridCell<String>( columnName: 'designation', value: e.designation), DataGridCell<int>(columnName: 'salary', value: e.salary), ])) .toList(); } List<DataGridRow> _employeeData = []; @override List<DataGridRow> get rows => _employeeData; @override DataGridRowAdapter buildRow(DataGridRow row) { return DataGridRowAdapter( color: Colors.transparent, cells: row.getCells().map<Widget>((e) { return Container( alignment: Alignment.center, padding: EdgeInsets.all(8.0), child: Text(e.value.toString()), ); }).toList()); } }
STEP 3: Initialize the SfDataGrid with all the required properties. Set the headerColor as transparent using the SfDataGridThemeData.headerColor property. Wrap the SfDataGridThemeData inside the container, and add the image to the BoxDecoration.image property.
@override Widget build(BuildContext context) { return Scaffold( appBar: AppBar( title: const Text('Syncfusion Flutter DataGrid'), ), body: Container( decoration: BoxDecoration( image: DecorationImage( image: AssetImage("image/Datagrid.png"), fit: BoxFit.cover)), child: SfDataGridTheme( data: SfDataGridThemeData(headerColor: Colors.transparent), child: SfDataGrid( source: employeeDataGridSource, columnWidthMode: ColumnWidthMode.fill, columns: <GridColumn>[ GridColumn( columnName: 'id', label: Container( padding: EdgeInsets.all(16.0), alignment: Alignment.center, child: Text( 'ID', ))), GridColumn( columnName: 'name', label: Container( padding: EdgeInsets.all(8.0), alignment: Alignment.center, child: Text('Name'))), GridColumn( columnName: 'designation', label: Container( padding: EdgeInsets.all(8.0), alignment: Alignment.center, child: Text( 'Designation', overflow: TextOverflow.ellipsis, ))), GridColumn( columnName: 'salary', label: Container( padding: EdgeInsets.all(8.0), alignment: Alignment.center, child: Text('Salary'))), ], ), ), ), ); }
