Hi,
For the Row indicator column on the very left. I would like to change the background color based on an entry on one of the row values.
I have checked out this article - https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/gridview/cells/formatting-cells
But do not know the type in order to get the row indicator cell/column
Thanks!

Hello, Terry,
In order to customize the grid cells, it it suitable to use the CellFormatting/ViewCellFormatting event as you have already found out. You can find below a sample code snippet demonstrating how to color the indicator cells:
I would recommend you to use the RadControlSpyForm tool which is quite useful for inspecting the elements. Thus, you can find very easily which elements to customize.
I hope this information helps.
