You can draw in a background gradient by copying code from DataGrid, but I would put a different kind of border around it. It really depends on what you want it to look like. Canvas gives you lots of flexibility.

This extra header does not need to be functional but only informative. I wanted to ask you, guys, what is the best approach to achieve this? I would also like to specify the groups by setting some kind of parameter of the new datagrid component. In the example ( jpg ) attached, it would be something like this: <custom:exDatagrig groups="[ { columns: [ age, money ], label: 'Personal data' } ]" ... /> Thank you all.
