GroupFooterRowStyleSelector

The GroupFooterRowStyleSelector property of RadGridView can be used to style group footer rows differently based on a specific condition.

Bear in mind that the GroupFooterRowStyle takes precedence over the GroupFooterRowStyleSelector and will overwrite it if both are defined simultaneously.

To do so, first create a new class that inherits the StyleSelector class and override its SelectStyle method:

Example 1: The GroupFooterRowStyleSelector class

public class GroupFooterRowStyleSelector : StyleSelector 
{ 
    public override Style SelectStyle(object item, DependencyObject container) 
    { 
        var group = item as QueryableCollectionViewGroup; 
 
        if (group != null) 
        { 
            if (group.ItemCount > 1) 
            { 
                return BigGroupStyle; 
            } 
            else 
            { 
                return SmallGroupStyle; 
            } 
        } 
 
        return null; 
    } 
 
    public Style BigGroupStyle { get; set; } 
    public Style SmallGroupStyle { get; set; } 
} 
Public Class GroupFooterRowStyleSelector 
Inherits StyleSelector 
    Public Overrides Function SelectStyle(item As Object, container As DependencyObject) As Style 
        Dim group = TryCast(item, CollectionViewGroup) 
 
        If group IsNot Nothing Then 
            If group.ItemCount > 1 Then 
                Return BigGroupStyle 
            Else 
                Return SmallGroupStyle 
            End If 
        End If 
 
        Return Nothing 
    End Function 
 
    Public Property BigGroupStyle() As Style 
        Get 
            Return m_BigGroupStyle 
        End Get 
        Set 
            m_BigGroupStyle = Value 
        End Set 
    End Property 
    Private m_BigGroupStyle As Style 
 
    Public Property SmallGroupStyle() As Style 
        Get 
            Return m_SmallGroupStyle 
        End Get 
        Set 
            m_SmallGroupStyle = Value 
        End Set 
    End Property 
    Private m_SmallGroupStyle As Style 
End Class 

In the XAML file, define the style selector as a resource and set the properties of the BigGroupStyle and SmallGroupStyle:

Example 2: Setting the BigGroupStyle and SmallGroupStyle

<Grid.Resources> 
    <my:GroupFooterRowStyleSelector x:Key="StadiumCapacityStyleSelector"> 
        <my:GroupFooterRowStyleSelector.BigGroupStyle> 
            <Style TargetType="telerik:GridViewGroupFooterRow"> 
                <Setter Property="Background" Value="Red"/> 
            </Style> 
        </my:GroupFooterRowStyleSelector.BigGroupStyle> 
        <my:GroupFooterRowStyleSelector.SmallGroupStyle> 
            <Style TargetType="telerik:GridViewGroupFooterRow"> 
                <Setter Property="Background" Value="Yellow" /> 
            </Style> 
        </my:GroupFooterRowStyleSelector.SmallGroupStyle> 
    </my:GroupFooterRowStyleSelector> 
</Grid.Resources> 

The "my:" prefix before GroupFooterRowStyleSelector specifies the mapping for the namespace of the project: xmlns:my="..."

Finally, set the GroupFooterRowStyleSelector property:

Example 3: Setting the GroupFooterRowStyleSelector property

<telerik:RadGridView GroupFooterRowStyleSelector="{StaticResource GroupFooterRowStyleSelector}" /> 
And here is the final result:
