GWT - Datagrid Selection Color

[Marco]

Hi,
is there a way to change global the selection color of gwt datagrid? I
added following css-format in the main-app-css file:

.dataGridSelectedRow {
background: #1EDA17;
color: white;
height: auto;
overflow: auto;
}

I have seen also following link:

Sadly my change had no effect. Do I miss any setStyleName() call?

DataGrid uses a ClientBundle/CssResource for its images/css so you have to extend it and provide your custom css by overwriting dataGridStyle() and provide your own css file using @Source annotation.

Something like:

interface MyDataGridResources extends DataGrid.Resources {

  @Override

  @Source({DataGrid.Style.DEFAUL_CSS, "yourCustomStyle.css"})

  DataGrid.Style dataGridStyle();

}

By merging the DataGrid default css with your custom css you don't have to provide all css classes in your own file and can selectively overwrite the defaults.
