{
CGraphicsDevice* screenDevice = iCoeEnv->ScreenDevice();
TFontSpec fontSpec2 = CCoeEnv::Static()->NormalFont()->FontSpecInTwips();
fontSpec2.iTypeface.iName=_L("Latin");
fontSpec2.iHeight = 50;
CFont* fontText; 
screenDevice->GetNearestFontInTwips(fontText,fontSpec2);
iGrid->ItemDrawer()->FormattedCellData()->SetSubCellFontL(1,fontText);
CCoeEnv::Static()->ReleaseScreenFont(fontText);
...
}

You can check also SetSubCellSizeL,SubCellPosition and SubCellBaselinePos

AFAIK, you can't do it cell-by-cell basis. You can set to have different colors for active cell.

Hi
thanx for help sir
actually im having 3*3 grid.it means i m having item0 to item8 in my cell if oi m not wrong.coz there is 3 column and 3 row.so every row has 3 items.if i need to set text colour for first item of first row and second item of third row.then how can i do that.
i m little bit confused with "active cell".is it selected item or that grid view which is showing on my container.
here i m really confused with subcell number.when i m trying to set colour for a subcell using this
iGrid->ItemDrawer()->ColumnData()->SetSubCellColorsL(1,gridColors); //it works for whole grid
but if i go to for change the second item colour using this
iGrid->ItemDrawer()->ColumnData()->SetSubCellColorsL(2,gridColors);
its not work here what i have found that my cell number is 1 not 2.then what will be the number of second item in first row.
sorry for write long text but i m really confused with grid.
plz help me

Grid is just wide listbox.
In Grid you have cells (3x3 in your case). Each cell can contain subcells (if you have icon and text then it is 2 subcells in 1 cell)
You can give different colors to different subcells , but these work for all cells.
Active cell is the one that has focus (it is selected item) - if you move your cursor around then focus changes.

Hi

Can i make a grid transparent.i mean is it possible that a grid can build default background rather than its own background.coz i want to draw somthing on container but whenever i try this it is overlaping by grid background.
i found a method SetDrawBackground() but its not working for me.is this function can solve my problem.
plz just give me a hint.

Thanks in Advance
