I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to color individual cells on a color scale. In particular, I am hoping to get something like the Bonus column in the following:
Currently, I've setup my datagrid's columns background property to bind to the following converter:
public class NameToBrushConverter : IValueConverter
{
public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
{
double? input = value as double?;
if(input<-5)
{
return Brushes.MediumVioletRed;
}
if(-5<=input && input<-0.5)
{
return Brushes.IndianRed;
}
if (.5 <= input && input < 5)
{
return Brushes.LightGreen;
}
if (5 <= input)
{
return Brushes.LawnGreen;
}
return DependencyProperty.UnsetValue;
}
public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
{
throw new NotSupportedException();
}
}
}
Is there a way, without hard coding the values, to get a color scale?
Thanks - kcross
EDIT: I'm also trying to create a better Red-Green color scale (ie for negative to positive numbers), in terms of one that is a little less hard on the eyes.... if anyone has any suggestions on that as well that's also appreciated!
I've created a ValueToBrushConverter. You use it like this:
Background="{Binding Path=YourDoubleValue,
Converter={StaticResource ValueToBrushConverter},
ConverterParameter='YourMinDouble|YourMaxDouble'}"
This will create a gradient color scale from green ( YourMinDouble
) to red ( YourMaxDouble
) and pick the related color for YourDoubleValue
. YourMinDouble
can be negativ but has to be lesser then YourMaxDouble
. If YourDoubleValue
is not in range it returns Brushes.Transparent
.
Customize it for your needs!
ConverterClass
[ValueConversion(typeof(double), typeof(Brush))]
class ValueToBrushConverter : IValueConverter
{
public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
{
double number = (double)value;
double min = 0;
double max = 100;
// Get the value limits from parameter
try
{
string[] limits = (parameter as string).Split(new char[] { '|' });
min = double.Parse(limits[0], CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
max = double.Parse(limits[1], CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
}
catch (Exception)
{
throw new ArgumentException("Parameter not valid. Enter in format: 'MinDouble|MaxDouble'");
}
if (max <= min)
{
throw new ArgumentException("Parameter not valid. MaxDouble has to be greater then MinDouble.");
}
if (number >= min && number <= max)
{
// Calculate color channels
double range = (max - min) / 2;
number -= max - range;
double factor = 255 / range;
double red = number < 0 ? number * factor : 255;
double green = number > 0 ? (range - number) * factor : 255;
// Create and return brush
Color color = Color.FromRgb((byte)red, (byte)green, 0);
SolidColorBrush brush = new SolidColorBrush(color);
return brush;
}
// Fallback brush
return Brushes.Transparent;
}
public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
{
throw new NotImplementedException();
}
}
