![]() | ErrorText | Gets a string that represents an error message for the current DataGridViewRow. |
![]() | Graphics | Gets the Graphics used to paint the current DataGridViewRow. |
![]() | InheritedRowStyle | Gets the cell style applied to the current DataGridViewRow. |
![]() | IsFirstDisplayedRow | Gets a value indicating whether the current row is the first row displayed in the DataGridView. |
![]() | IsLastVisibleRow | Gets a value indicating whether the current row is the last visible row displayed in the DataGridView. |
![]() | RowBounds | Get the bounds of the current DataGridViewRow. |

![]() | PaintCellsBackground | Paints the cell backgrounds for the area in the specified bounds. |
![]() | PaintCellsContent | Paints the cell contents for the area in the specified bounds. |
![]() | PaintHeader(Boolean) | Paints the entire row header of the current DataGridViewRow. |

![]() | ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |
The RowPostPaint event occurs after a row is painted on a DataGridView control. RowPostPaint allows you to manually adjust the appearance of the row after the cells in the row are painted. This is useful if you want to customize the row.
The following code example demonstrates how to handle the RowPostPaint event to make the content of a cell span the entire row. This code example is part of a larger example provided in How to: Customize the Appearance of Rows in the Windows Forms DataGridView Control.
// Paints the content that spans multiple columns and the focus rectangle. void dataGridView1_RowPostPaint(object sender, DataGridViewRowPostPaintEventArgs e) { // Calculate the bounds of the row. Rectangle rowBounds = new Rectangle( this.dataGridView1.RowHeadersWidth, e.RowBounds.Top, this.dataGridView1.Columns.GetColumnsWidth( DataGridViewElementStates.Visible) - this.dataGridView1.HorizontalScrollingOffset + 1, e.RowBounds.Height); SolidBrush forebrush = null; try { // Determine the foreground color. if ((e.State & DataGridViewElementStates.Selected) == DataGridViewElementStates.Selected) { forebrush = new SolidBrush(e.InheritedRowStyle.SelectionForeColor); } else { forebrush = new SolidBrush(e.InheritedRowStyle.ForeColor); } // Get the content that spans multiple columns. object recipe = this.dataGridView1.Rows.SharedRow(e.RowIndex).Cells[2].Value; if (recipe != null) { String text = recipe.ToString(); // Calculate the bounds for the content that spans multiple // columns, adjusting for the horizontal scrolling position // and the current row height, and displaying only whole // lines of text. Rectangle textArea = rowBounds; textArea.X -= this.dataGridView1.HorizontalScrollingOffset; textArea.Width += this.dataGridView1.HorizontalScrollingOffset; textArea.Y += rowBounds.Height - e.InheritedRowStyle.Padding.Bottom; textArea.Height -= rowBounds.Height - e.InheritedRowStyle.Padding.Bottom; textArea.Height = (textArea.Height / e.InheritedRowStyle.Font.Height) * e.InheritedRowStyle.Font.Height; // Calculate the portion of the text area that needs painting. RectangleF clip = textArea; clip.Width -= this.dataGridView1.RowHeadersWidth + 1 - clip.X; clip.X = this.dataGridView1.RowHeadersWidth + 1; RectangleF oldClip = e.Graphics.ClipBounds; e.Graphics.SetClip(clip); // Draw the content that spans multiple columns. e.Graphics.DrawString( text, e.InheritedRowStyle.Font, forebrush, textArea); e.Graphics.SetClip(oldClip); } } finally { forebrush.Dispose(); } if (this.dataGridView1.CurrentCellAddress.Y == e.RowIndex) { // Paint the focus rectangle. e.DrawFocus(rowBounds, true); } }
