How to make focused row highlighted by border on XtraGrid

Question

Currently, I can highlight focused row by changing background appearance color in RowStyle event. But it does not provide to change border of that row.

I tried override DrawFocusRectangle of XPaint but it will not be shown in case the grid is not focused.

Anybody gives me another way, please?
