how to make datagridview look disabled after enabled = false

when i do...

dgv.enabled = false

dgv gets disabled as in you are unable to use the control. but it looks enabled because its appearance is still the same. Unlike a textbox which becomes grayed-out.

what is the best way to make it look disabled like a disabled textbox?

I have a LinkButton in an ASP.NET web form. Depending on the current state of affairs, I either enable or disable the link button in by code-behind class (e.g., disable the "Previous" button if you are already at the first record). I have constructed a very nice style for the button in my stylesheet, but the style is ignored when I disable the button. So, how do I control the display attributes of a disabled HTML widget? Thanks...

Hi all! Please help me with the following real-trouble: - I have dynamically created controls on page - Everything works unless I set for some controls .Enabled = false In such a case stored value for the disabled control is lost (not sent by MSIE back to server).

I have an app that displays about 20 items of data in text boxes. Very occasionally I need to allow these to be used for data entry, but the bulk of the time they are solely for information. They all sit in a GroupBox that is normally disabled, but is enabled when data can be edited. The users complain that when the GroupBox.Enabled=False, the greyed out text boxes are hard to read. I would like to find a way to disable the GroupBox whilst...

I have DataGridView in virtual mode containing 3500 rows. In code below, assigning to RowCount value to 3500 takes 8 seconds. CPU usage goes high at this time. Stepping by F11 into user code shows few celltemplate property getters and combobox/datecombo constructor calls without database access which does not take a lot of time. Debug output (below) shows lot of messages Stepping over non-user code. Running in release mode from...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
