How to change combobox particular item color dynamically in wpf
Instead of adding the actual value of i
in the combobox, add a ComboBoxItem
instead:
private void Window_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
ComboBoxItem item = new ComboBoxItem();
if (i == 2) item.Foreground = Brushes.Blue;
else item.Foreground = Brushes.Pink;
item.Content = i.ToString();
com_ColorItems.Items.Add(item);
}
}
If you want to modify the ComboBoxItem created with this method later, this is how you can do it:
var item = com_ColorItems.Items[2] as ComboBoxItem; // Convert from Object
if (item != null) // Conversion succeeded
{
item.Foreground = Brushes.Tomato;
}
First, try to bind your Source and avoid the directly access through code behind. And than you can use an Converter in your ItemSource Binding.
e.g.
ItemSource={Binding MyComboboxItems, Converter={StaticResource MyConverter}}
and in your Converter find you the 3rd Item and give them a different ForegroundColor
