Flash updated cell

created 12 years ago

I have a wpf grid which is populated by a ObservableCollection dictionary. I want to make the color of the updated cell green or red according to data, then after a second the cell will be white. I mean i want to flash the updated cell.

How can i do that?

Thanks,

Hi,
The best way to achieve your goal is to use the CellTemplate property for setting a template on a cell, create a color animation there and run this animation after cell value changing.
Feel free to contact us if you need additional information.
Thanks

        Solution is very useful. But how to use in winform application. Please suggest. In our example Gridview cell value change when another thread change value in datatable by setting  DevExpress.Data.CurrencyDataController.DisableThreadingProblemsDetection = true. But end user dose not know which value updated because cell don't flash in red or green color for small duration.
