Automatic Scrolling to SelectedItem

[GlenC]

I have two controls, a RadGridView and RadCoverflow bound to the same ObservableCollection, the former to display the data, the latter to display associated Thumbnail.  When I select the Thumbnail image on the coverflow the appropriate item is also selected on the GridView, however if there is a lot of data and the vertical scrollbars are showing on the GridView, the correct row is selected but I would like the Grid to automatically scroll to that item - is it possible or any sufggestions as to how to implement this?

Cheers

Hello GlenC,

RadGridView cannot automatically scroll to the selected item but you can easily implement such functionality. Just subscribe to the SelectionChanged event and in the event handler use the BrindDataItemIntoView method to scroll to the selected record/item.

Here is a sample snippet:

public Page()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    this.data = GetMessages();
    this.RadGridView1.ItemsSource = this.data;
    this.RadGridView1.SelectionChanged += new EventHandler<SelectionChangeEventArgs>(RadGridView1_SelectionChanged);
}

void RadGridView1_SelectionChanged(object sender, Telerik.Windows.Controls.SelectionChangeEventArgs e)
{
    this.RadGridView1.ItemsControl.BringDataItemIntoView(this.RadGridView1.SelectedItem);
}

Kind regards,
