Hello,
I am using silverlight RadGridView control and facing focus issue as below.
For example, my gridview has 3 rows. by pressing tab currently I am on second row.
Now suppose I am directly move focus on another controls by some shortcuts or by mouse.
Now if I will get focus again on RadGridView then focus starting from
second row(previously focused row) instead I want to be start focus from
first row.
I'll appreciate your immediate response on this.
Thanks.

I have implemented this behavior in a project with a RadGridView and a simple button, handling the SelectionChanged event. You can use the same approach by setting the canSelect value to true in the other controls you have. Please refer to the following code snippet:
private bool canSelect;
private void Button1_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { canSelect = !canSelect; } private void clubsGrid_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangeEventArgs e) { if (canSelect) { this.clubsGrid.SelectedItem = this.clubsGrid.Items[0]; Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(new Action(() => { this.clubsGrid.CurrentCellInfo = new GridViewCellInfo(this.clubsGrid.SelectedItem, this.clubsGrid.Columns[0]); })); } }Please, update me if the information was helpful.

Hello Stefan,
Thanks for your reply.
As this solution won't work for me. Once we will make variable true, we won't able to move forward with Tab to other row of RadGridView because on_SelectionChanged event we are selecting first item every time.
I think, there should be some modification on focus lost but focus lost event executing even if we are moving within RadGridView Column/Rows.
Please can you provide some alternate solution.
Thanks.
In order to be able to change the selected item after that, you can again change the canSelect variable to false, as in the code snippet below:
private void clubsGrid_SelectionChanged(object sender, SelectionChangeEventArgs e){ if (canSelect) { this.clubsGrid.SelectedItem = this.clubsGrid.Items[0]; Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(new Action(() => { this.clubsGrid.CurrentCellInfo = new GridViewCellInfo(this.clubsGrid.SelectedItem, this.clubsGrid.Columns[0]); })); canSelect = false; }}I have tested it from my end and it works as expected so I hope it will suit your needs.

Hello Stefan,
As I have mentioned in my post description, If I am directly move focus on another controls by some shortcuts or by mouse then RadGridView selected item remain last selected Item instead of I want first item like you did.
Also _SelectionChanged will be executed every time when you will do change RadGridView rows/columns. In your code snippet, you have changed canSelect on button click while in my case I don't have specific control on which I can make it true/false, as there are many controls in my form.
My goal is when you lost focus from RadGridView control and if get focus again on RadGridView then it should be first row of RadGridView controls instead of previous selected row.
Let me know if you need anymore clarification from me.
Thanks.
I have suggested this implementation, and not directly to attach to the LostFocus event, as the RadGridView uses all focus-related events for some internal operations and using them in your logic can cause inconsistent actions and results.
You don`t have to implement the previously mentioned logic in the SelectionChanged event of the RadGridView. I just used it as an example. Instead, you can set it every time another control is clicked or gets focused. So you can attach this to the GotFocus method of a simple button, or any other control you have included in your project, let`s say a button:
private void Button_GotFocus(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { this.clubsGrid.SelectedItem = this.clubsGrid.Items[0]; Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(new Action(() => { this.clubsGrid.CurrentCellInfo = new GridViewCellInfo(this.clubsGrid.SelectedItem, this.clubsGrid.Columns[0]); })); }Regards,
