Question

I want to to bind the entire row’s background with a boolean property for each record in XAML.

There are too many ways to change datagrid’s style but I want to change the specific style that is responsible for the entire row…

For example, the class Record is the bound data behind the datagrid and it has a boolean property “Correct” (true / false), I’d like the datagrid to show the row with false Correct in red background, green when true.

I tried to use CellStyle but it only changes the background in each cell in the row, not the whole row.

As mentioned use DataGrid.RowStyle, for example:

<Style x:Key="DataGridRowCorrectStyle" TargetType="{x:Type Toolkit:DataGridRow}">
    <Setter Property="Background" Value="Green"/>
    <Style.Triggers>
        <DataTrigger Binding="{Binding Correct}" Value="False">
            <Setter Property="Background" Value="Red"/>
        </DataTrigger>
    </Style.Triggers>
</Style>

<Toolkit:DataGrid RowStyle={StaticResource DataGridRowCorrectStyle} ... />
