If I don't need the AdvancedDataGrid do you think it's ok to use it only for this effect or there is an overhead? I tried your solution, but I think that the problem is that I need to refresh the datagrid for changing color. I don't think this is a viable solution because I have thousand of rows, I would only blink the new rows for one second.
