Remarks

Tip

A template that defines the presentation of data cells is specified by the ColumnBase.CellTemplate property. If you have more than one template that can be used to render cells, you can implement custom logic to choose the required template. To do this, derive from the DataTemplateSelector class, implement the SelectTemplate method that returns a template which meets the required condition, and assign it to the CellTemplateSelector property.

If both the ColumnBase.CellTemplate and CellTemplateSelector are specified, a cell is rendered using the template returned by the template selector. If the template selector returns null, the template specified by the ColumnBase.CellTemplate property is used.

See the How to change a cell template based on some condition example to learn more.
