How to set the current row bold in WinForms GridControl?
Change the font style
The current row data can be changed to Bold font style by using the PrepareViewStyleInfo event. Using this event, the style can be changed by validating whether the CurrentCell is in a WinForms GridControl. But the current row range has to be refreshed while activating the cell and deactivating the cells.
gridControl1.CurrentCellActivated += gridControl1_CurrentCellActivated;
gridControl1.CurrentCellDeactivated += gridControl1_CurrentCellDeactivated;
gridControl1.PrepareViewStyleInfo += gridControl1_PrepareViewStyleInfo;
void gridControl1_PrepareViewStyleInfo(object sender, GridPrepareViewStyleInfoEventArgs e)
{
GridControlBase grid = gridControl1;
GridCurrentCell cc = gridControl1.CurrentCell;
if (e.RowIndex > grid.Model.Rows.HeaderCount && e.ColIndex > grid.Model.Cols.HeaderCount && cc.HasCurrentCellAt(e.RowIndex))
{
e.Style.Font.Bold = true;
}
}
void gridControl1_CurrentCellDeactivated(object sender, GridCurrentCellDeactivatedEventArgs e)
{
GridControlBase grid = gridControl1;
GridCurrentCell cc = gridControl1.CurrentCell;
//Checks if Deactivate is called stand-alone or called from MoveTo and the row is moving.
if (!cc.IsInMoveTo || cc.MoveToRowIndex != cc.MoveFromRowIndex)
{
grid.RefreshRange(GridRangeInfo.Row(e.RowIndex), GridRangeOptions.MergeAllSpannedCells);
}
}
void gridControl1_CurrentCellActivated(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
GridControlBase grid = gridControl1;
GridCurrentCell cc = gridControl1.CurrentCell;
//Checks if Activate is called stand-alone or called from MoveTo and the row is moving.
if (!cc.IsInMoveTo || cc.MoveToRowIndex != cc.MoveFromRowIndex
|| !cc.MoveFromActiveState)
{
grid.RefreshRange(GridRangeInfo.Row(cc.RowIndex), GridRangeOptions.MergeAllSpannedCells);
}
