[dba-VB] WinForms: What is the best event for custom drawing on a leftmost cell of DataGridView

Hi Shamil

Quite tricky, I must say.
So now you have turned all this into a custom control of yours? I've never made such (haven't had the need) but wouldn't this be a good example?

Hi Gustav --

Google didn't help here.

I finally used .Paint event to draw on TopLeftCell, .RowPostPaint to draw on
RowHeaders with custom drawing in both cases.

And (your google hint)

            e.PaintHeader(DataGridViewPaintParts.All &
~DataGridViewPaintParts.ContentBackground);

to suppress arrow.

It works fine now.

Thank you.

Hi Shamil

I guess you have googled what you need to at this moment ...

The one strange thing about the row selectors is the default large width.
Too wide in my opinion.
