See the (xref:113189) topic for more details about available ListEditor classes.

C#

public class ListEditorController : ViewController<ListView> {
    private GridListEditor listEditor = null;
    private void listEditor_ControlsCreated(object sender, EventArgs e) {
        ((GridListEditor)sender).GridView.Appearance.FocusedCell.BackColor = Color.Orange;
    }
    protected override void OnActivated() {
        base.OnActivated();
        listEditor = View.Editor as GridListEditor;
        if (listEditor != null) {
            listEditor.ControlsCreated += listEditor_ControlsCreated;
            }
    }
    protected override void OnDeactivated() {
        if (listEditor != null) {
            listEditor.ControlsCreated -= listEditor_ControlsCreated;
            }
        base.OnDeactivated();
    }
}

VB.NET

Public Class ListEditorController
    Inherits ViewController(Of ListView)
    Private listEditor As GridListEditor = Nothing
    Private Sub listEditor_ControlsCreated(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
        DirectCast(sender, GridListEditor).GridView.Appearance.FocusedCell.BackColor = Color.Orange
    End Sub
    Protected Overrides Sub OnActivated()
        MyBase.OnActivated()
        listEditor = TryCast(View.Editor, GridListEditor)
        If listEditor IsNot Nothing Then
            AddHandler listEditor.ControlsCreated, AddressOf listEditor_ControlsCreated
        End If
    End Sub
    Protected Overrides Sub OnDeactivated()
        If listEditor IsNot Nothing Then
            RemoveHandler listEditor.ControlsCreated, AddressOf listEditor_ControlsCreated
        End If
        MyBase.OnDeactivated()
    End Sub
End Class
