    Example

    All examples in this topic assume that the grid is bound to the Employees table of the Northwind database, unless stated otherwise.

    The following example demonstrates how to change the gradient applied to the card surfaces when using the Chameleon theme.
    <Grid xmlns:xcdg="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/datagrid">
    <Grid.Resources>
       <xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource x:Key="cvs_employees"
                                   Source="{Binding Source={x:Static Application.Current}, Path=EmployeesTable}"/>
    </Grid.Resources>
    <xcdg:DataGridControl x:Name="EmployeesGrid"
                          ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource cvs_employees}}">
       <xcdg:DataGridControl.Columns>
          <xcdg:Column FieldName="LastName" IsMainColumn="True"/>
