Is there a way to highlight all the modified rows on a DataGrid
? Since the grid is bound to a System.Data.DataTable
I figured I might be able to bind the color of each row to it's RowState
(example below), but that doesn't seem to work.
Any ideas?
xmlns:data="clr-namespace:System.Data;assembly=System.Data"
<Style x:Key="DataGridRowStyle" TargetType="{x:Type toolkit:DataGridRow}">
<Style.Triggers>
<Trigger Property="IsSelected" Value="true">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="Blue" />
</Trigger>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding RowState}"
Value="{x:Static data:DataRowState.Modified}">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="LightYellow" />
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
<DataGrid.RowStyle>
<Style TargetType="DataGridRow">
<Style.Triggers>
<DataTrigger Binding="{Binding RowState}" Value="{x:Static data:DataRowState.Modified}">
<Setter Property="Background" Value="LightYellow" />
</DataTrigger>
</Style.Triggers>
</Style>
</DataGrid.RowStyle>
Update
After you have posted also your xaml, it's obvious that the problem is not to be found in the xaml. I have shortly looked at msdn for the DataTable-class and I can not see a mechanism that let WPF detect changes of the RowState
-property. Therefore, direct binding to this property will not give you reliable results.
It seems that you have to wrap your data items. I recommend to make a ViewModel for the items and add a property that says if the row has changed with change notification (INotifyPropertyChanged
or DP) and bind to this property. Surely there will be also other alternatives, but IMO creating a VM per item is in most cases the best solution.
