Help with Styling Grids (Views) and Sections (Forms) in Model-Driven App

Hello,

I’m currently working on a Model-Driven App, and I need help with styling both the grid (views) and sections (forms) to meet customer requirements. Here's a breakdown of the challenges I've encountered:

1. Styling Grids (Views):

PCF for Column Customization: I’ve used PCF to customize columns, but this only covers column-level changes and doesn’t give me full control over the grid's appearance, which isn’t sufficient for the customer’s needs.
Web Resources: I also tried using Web Resources to modify the grid styles, but Web Resources seem to only support adding icons to columns and don’t allow for more comprehensive styling of the grid itself

2. Styling Sections in Forms or Fields:

Web Resources for Section Styling: I attempted to apply custom styles to sections in the form using Web Resources, but this approach doesn’t work because the styles are injected into an iframe within the form. As a result, the styles can’t target the necessary elements outside the iframe.
PCF for Section Styling: I haven't been able to find a PCF solution that allows for styling sections inside the form.

Summary:

I’m stuck on how to fully achieve the customer’s request for grid and section styling in the Model-Driven App. If anyone has insights on whether this is possible, using PCF, Web Resources, or another method, I would greatly appreciate your help. If this isn't achievable, please let me know so I can avoid spending further time on it.

Thank you so much for your assistance!
