Hi,

I’m trying to customize a data grid component by using styles.  
I’ve switched the theme from Halo theme to Sample, and set a style called headerColor.  
It applies the color to the header of the Data Grid, but also applies some sort of gradient to it that fades to white. (There is a gradient on the header even if I don’t set a style to it). I’ve gone through my library to try to find this gradient and skin it over with something else but I can’t find it. I am not understanding where this gradient is coming from.
