Setting this property will affect the appearance of the "dead area" of under populated controls, such as the area to the right of the last column, the area below the last data row, and the Outlook Grouping area.
If the C1.Win.C1List.ListBase.C1ListBase.EmptyRows property is True, the empty data rows it creates are not considered part of the "dead area" and will not be displayed in the DeadAreaBackColor. If you wish for the area occupied by the empty rows to be shown in the DeadAreaBackColor, you should first set the C1.Win.C1List.ListBase.C1ListBase.EmptyRows property to False.
