Changing Row Colours on DevExpress GridView

Question

I am trying to change the colour of a row to green in a devexpress gridview. When searching I found many examples of how to do this... in websites BUT this is a windows appl

Answer 1

For changing the row colour in runtime handle the RowStyle event:

    public Color color1;
    public Color color2;
    public int rowhandle;

    private void gridView1_RowStyle(object sender, DevExpress.XtraGrid.Views.Grid.RowStyleEventArgs e)
    {
        try
        {
            if (e.RowHandle == rowhandle)
            {
                if (color1 != null && color2 != null)
                {
                    e.Appearance.BackColor = color1;
                    e.Appearance.BackColor2 = color2;
                }
            }
        }
        catch
        {
        }
    }

    private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        color1 = Color.BurlyWood;
        color2 = Color.DarkOrchid;
        rowhandle = gridView1.FocusedRowHandle;
        gridView1.RefreshRow(rowhandle);
    }

The code bellow will maintain the colour:

public partial class Form1 : Form
{

    public Color color1;
    public Color color2;
    public int rowhandle;
    public List rowhandles;

    private void gridView1_RowStyle(object sender, DevExpress.XtraGrid.Views.Grid.RowStyleEventArgs e)
    {
        try
        {
            if (rowhandles.Any(x=>x==e.RowHandle))
            {
                if (color1 != null && color2 != null)
                {
                    e.Appearance.BackColor = color1;
                    e.Appearance.BackColor2 = color2;
                }
            }
        }
        catch
        {
        }
    }

    private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        color1 = Color.BurlyWood;
        color2 = Color.DarkOrchid;
        rowhandle = gridView1.FocusedRowHandle;
        if (!rowhandles.Any(x => x == rowhandle))
            rowhandles.Add(rowhandle);
        gridView1.RefreshRow(rowhandle);
    }

    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
    }

    private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Dictionary l = new Dictionary();
        l.Add(1,"one");
        l.Add(2,"two");
        l.Add(3,"three");
        l.Add(4, "four");
        l.Add(5, "five");
        l.Add(6, "six");
        l.Add(7, "seven");
        l.Add(8, "eight");
        l.Add(9, "nine");

        gridControl1.DataSource = l.ToList();

        rowhandles = new List();
    }

}
