Hi, I'm using XamDataGrid and binding it to a List<MyClass>, where MyClass has some public properties.   The XamDataGrid works perfectly, displaying each distinct instance of MyClass as a row, and all of the public properties as columns.

Now, I've extended each Property within MyClass to be a "Decorated" object that contains both a Value to be displayed, AND a boolean that indicates if the cell should be highlighted in some way by what ever control is displaying it. (The Decorator class is a template class that adapts a type, and handles type conversion and ToString() + contains the property bool Highlight{get;set;} ).

I've seen the examples using IValueConverter to create a setter for the Foreground property, but all the examples I've seen, add one style per column, each of which specifies a both a Converter and a Path to a specific property i.e. DataItem.Property1 or DataItem.Property2.   I'd much rather the grid worked that out for itself, as it does now (as every public property contains a Highlight flag).

I tried adding a Style that targeted the CellValuePresenter, but there doesn't appear to be a way of binding using something like Path="DataItem.*"  i.e. apply the conversion to ALL public properties. Or ".\Highlight" i.e. the currently bound item's Highlight property.

And if I try using Path="DataItem", that will get me to the MyClass instance, but I can't see how I can find out which column the XamDataGrid is currently converting (unless you can show me how to obtain that information).

If MyClass has 2 public properties, the Conversion does indeed get called twice for each row as I expected.

So, what is the correct approach to this kind of problem?   One that doesn't rely on just the Value of the property i.e. return a Red brush when the value == "Hello World", but "a property of that property" i.e. when Value.Highlight == true.
