WinColorPicker™ consists of a drop-down list that allows the user to choose a color. When the drop-down list is shown you have the choice between the following three tabs to choose a color from.

A example use case, is where you want to allow your end user to specify a different color for the WinGrid’s™ selected rows at run time. This can be useful for customers that need a greater contrast then what is supplied in your style. The following example code shows how this scenario could be implemented. The code assumes you have a data bound WinGrid called categoriesUltraGrid.
In Visual Basic:
Private Sub UltraColorPicker1_ColorChanged(ByVal sender As Object, _ ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles UltraColorPicker1.ColorChanged Me.categoriesUltraGrid.UseAppStyling = False Me.categoriesUltraGrid.DisplayLayout.Override.SelectedRowAppearance.BackColor = _ Me.UltraColorPicker1.Value End Sub
In C#:
private void ultraColorPicker1_ColorChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
this.categoriesUltraGrid.UseAppStyling = false;
this.categoriesUltraGrid.DisplayLayout.Override.SelectedRowAppearance.BackColor =
(Color)this.ultraColorPicker1.Value;
}
If you implemented this code, when a new value is selected from WinColorPicker’s drop-down list, all selected rows are changed automatically to reflect the new color choice. In addition, any future rows that are selected use the newly chosen color.
