C# Grid Color Column

The Kettic Data Grid Control uses the Data Grid Column objects to represent columns. The Kettic Data Grid Column is the base class of all types of grid columns, including the Grid Color Column. The Grid Color Column descends all features of the Kettic Data Grid Column parent class. So the Grid Column properties that are shared by the Grid CheckBox Column class also provide custom appearance and C# events for building entire gird color column in Windows Forms C# applications.

The Kettic Data Grid Control is able to edit the colors of the grid column by using the Color Dialog. Moreover, the Grid Color Column uses the Grid Color Picker Editor as the default C# editor of the column. The Grid Color Column can be generated automatically in Data Source property of Kettic Data Grid Control for Color fields. To generate and add the grid color column to Data Grid Control in C# code and add data in the grid manually, we can use the C# code snippet below.

GridColorColumn column = new GridColorColumn("Color column");
this.ketticGridView1.Columns.Add(column);

this.ketticGridView1.Rows.Add("Purple");
this.ketticGridView1.Rows.Add("Scarlet");
this.ketticGridView1.Rows.Add("Gray");
this.ketticGridView1.Rows.Add("Blue");
this.ketticGridView1.Rows.Add("Black");
