Visibility for PropertyDefinition?

[AvgurD]

Hi!

It's possible - add Visibility (with binding, ect) to PropertyDefinition?

Best regards, Jah

Hello Jah,

As PropertyDeifinitions are not visual elements and they are not meant to contain any information about the view, such a change would interfere with RadPropertyGrid's base logic. However, you may try binding the respective PropertyGridField's Visibility property or, as alternative approach, to remove and add PropertyDefinitions at runtime. Would you please share with us what exactly are you trying to achieve so that we could give you some guidelines adapted to your scenario?

Kind regards,

Hello, Ivan!

In model i have one entity wich contains 2 similar objects types. One object type have value for property A, and null for property B, other - opposite. And I want for first type make invisible property row  B, for second -  A. It will be right in the sense for the user.

Hi Jah,

You may try reading properties' values on  RadPropertyGrid's AutoGeneratingPropertyDefinition, using PropertyInfo.GetValue(Object, Object[]) and cancel their generation process. Would you please confirm whether such a solution is applicable in your scenario?

What about cases where property definitions are not auto-generated? The AutoGeneratingPropertyDefinition event does not fire in this case.

Hello,

 PropertyDefinition already has a Visibility property. You can bind it to a property of your ViewModel in XAML.

All the best,
