  Hi Jason,
  
  You can set the "SelectionBackgroundColor" of the Grid to show the desired color of the tapped cell. Also you need the set the "grid.SelectionMode" of the Grid to "GridSelectionMode.Cell".
  
  

  grid.SelectionMode = GridSelectionMode.Cell;
              grid.SelectionBackgroundColor = Color.Green;

  
  
  Please let me know if you need some other help.
  
  Thanks

  Hi abhishek.tayal
  
  Thanks for your reply. Is that possible to keep more than one cells (seperately)?
  And reverse the background back when tapped is triggered on those highlighted cells.
  
  Best regards

  Hi Jason,
  
  
  You can use the GridSelectionMode to CellRange which will change the BackgroundColor of the entire selected range, as the grid does not allows to set the style to particular cell.
  
  

  grid.SelectionMode = GridSelectionMode.CellRange;

  
  
  Whenever you change the selection the previous highlight turns to default and the new selected portion appears with the color specified in the SelectionBackgroundColor of the Grid.
  
  Please let me know if you need any other help.
  
  Thanks

  Hi abhishek.tayal,
  
  The Multi-Range Selection of Wijmo meets this requirement.
  https://www.grapecity.com/wijmo/demos/Grid/Selection/MultipleSelection/purejs
  My client needs a zoomable and multi selection datagrid.
  
  Best regards,
  Jason

  Hi Jason,
  
  We are sorry but currently FlexGrid on Xamarin platform does not support "MultiRange Selection" mode as like the MultiRange Selection in Wijmo.
  
  Please let me know if you need any other help.
  
  Thanks
