Example

This sample creates a new appearance object and sets the color associated properties. This routine is called from the InitializeLayout event of the UltraWinGrid.

Visual BasicCopy Code
Imports Infragistics.Win
		
  Private Sub SetupActiveCellAppearanceColors()

      Dim appearance As Appearance 

      appearance = New Infragistics.Win.Appearance()

      appearance.ForeColor = Color.White
      appearance.ForeColorDisabled = Color.Gray
      appearance.BackColor = Color.Green
      appearance.BackColor2 = Color.Blue
      appearance.BackColorDisabled = Color.Red
      appearance.BackColorDisabled2 = Color.Yellow
      appearance.BackGradientStyle = GradientStyle.Elliptical
      appearance.BackColorAlpha = Alpha.UseAlphaLevel
      appearance.AlphaLevel = 125

      Me.ultraGrid1.DisplayLayout.Override.CellAppearance = appearance

  End Sub
