One way you can do this is to use the CellsPainting
event to draw the
bitmap for a particular header cell. Here is code that does this
assuming the bitmap is in an imagelist
.
//this.images is an ImageList with your bitmaps
void dataGridView1_CellPainting(object sender, DataGridViewCellPaintingEventArgs e)
{
if (e.ColumnIndex == 1 && e.RowIndex == -1)
{
e.PaintBackground(e.ClipBounds, false);
Point pt = e.CellBounds.Location; // where you want the bitmap in the cell
int offset = (e.CellBounds.Width - this.images.ImageSize.Width) / 2;
pt.X += offset;
pt.Y += 1;
this.images.Draw(e.Graphics, pt, 0);
e.Handled = true;
}
}
