NatTable TreeGridExample cell styling [message #931640]

Hi,
I've been working on Nattable's TreeGridExample trying to figure out how to implement some styles on different cells depending on the object value they contain, but I couldn't figure out how to do it. The only snippet available in the other examples that should do what I want to achieve is this:

CellOverrideLabelAccumulator<RowDataFixture> cellLabelAccumulator =
new CellOverrideLabelAccumulator<RowDataFixture>(gridLayer.getBodyDataProvider());
cellLabelAccumulator.registerOverride("AAA", 2, CELL_LABEL);

but it doesn't work. Adding a configuration to nattable doesn't seem to work, either. Even so I don't want my cells to be styled depending on the text value specified in the registerOverrride parameters, but taking it's style color from the object.
Could someone give me some pointers or some snippets?
Thanks, James

Hi James,

so what you are trying to do is conditional styling. Conditional styling is a two way process in NatTable. You have to attach labels to the cells you want to give a different style, and define and configure the special style against that label.

Have a look at the documentation chapter about contitional styling.
http://eclipse.org/nattable/documentation.php?page=styling

There are also some examples on that with the articles you can find here: http://eclipse.org/nattable/documentation.php?page=articles
Although the articles are written in german, the examples are documented in-code in english.

Hope this helps,
Dirk
