Applying a grid background brush

The following example demonstrates how to apply a one of the custom background brushes (provided by Xceed) to a grid's background.

XAML	Copy Code
<Grid xmlns:xcdg="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/datagrid"> <Grid.Resources> <xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource x:Key="cvs_products" Source="{Binding Source={x:Static Application.Current}, Path=ProductsTable}"/> </Grid.Resources> <xcdg:DataGridControl x:Name="ProductsGrid" ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource cvs_products}}" Background="{x:Static xcdg:DataGridControlBackgroundBrushes.AuroraRed}"> <xcdg:DataGridControl.Columns> <xcdg:Column FieldName="ProductName" IsMainColumn="True"/> </xcdg:DataGridControl.Columns> <xcdg:DataGridControl.View> <!-- In Cardflow 3D view, if a theme is not explicitly specified, the Elemental Black theme will be used. --> <xcdg:CardflowView3D CardHeightToViewportRatio="0.5"/> </xcdg:DataGridControl.View> </xcdg:DataGridControl> </Grid>

Copy Code

<Grid xmlns:xcdg="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/datagrid">
    <Grid.Resources>
       <xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource x:Key="cvs_products"
                                       Source="{Binding Source={x:Static Application.Current}, Path=ProductsTable}"/>
      
    </Grid.Resources>
   <xcdg:DataGridControl x:Name="ProductsGrid"
                         ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource cvs_products}}"
                         Background="{x:Static xcdg:DataGridControlBackgroundBrushes.AuroraRed}">     
       <xcdg:DataGridControl.Columns>
          <xcdg:Column FieldName="ProductName"
                       IsMainColumn="True"/>
       </xcdg:DataGridControl.Columns>
       <xcdg:DataGridControl.View>
          <!-- In Cardflow 3D view, if a theme is not explicitly specified,
               the Elemental Black theme will be used. -->
          <xcdg:CardflowView3D CardHeightToViewportRatio="0.5"/>
       </xcdg:DataGridControl.View>
    </xcdg:DataGridControl>
 </Grid>

VB.NET	Copy Code
dataGridControl.Background = DataGridControlBackgroundBrushes.AuroraRed
