Create RadMaskedNumericInput dynamically

[Maciej]

Hi,

I need to create a set of RadMaskedNumericInput dynamically in code. I have the following (working) code with WPF TextBox

            var textBox = new TextBox
            {
                Height = 23,
                Width = 40,
                Margin = new Thickness(recalculatedPoint.X, recalculatedPoint.Y, 0, 0),
                VerticalAlignment = VerticalAlignment.Top,
                HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Left
            };

            Binding bind = new Binding(bindingExpression)
            {
                Source = this,
                Mode = BindingMode.TwoWay,
                UpdateSourceTrigger = UpdateSourceTrigger.PropertyChanged
            };
            textBox.SetBinding(TextBox.TextProperty, bind);

 

When I change the control type from TextBox to RadMaskedNumericInput and binding property from TextBox.TextProperty to RadMaskedNumericInput.ValueProperty control is created but binding does not work.The code is:

            var textBox = new RadMaskedNumericInput
            {
                Height = 23,
                Width = 40,
                Margin = new Thickness(recalculatedPoint.X, recalculatedPoint.Y, 0, 0),
                VerticalAlignment = VerticalAlignment.Top,
                HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Left
            };

            Binding bind = new Binding(bindingExpression)
            {
                Source = this,
                Mode = BindingMode.TwoWay,
                UpdateSourceTrigger = UpdateSourceTrigger.PropertyChanged
            };
            textBox.SetBinding(RadMaskedNumericInput.ValueProperty, bind);

 

Has anyone an idea why binding does not work?

Thanks in advance.

Have a nice day

It turned out that with additional styles it is working properly.

                IsClearButtonVisible = false,
                Placeholder = ' ',
                FormatString = "{}{0:0}"

Hi Maciej,

It is good to hear that you managed to achieve what you were looking for. As a side note, keep in mind that the Value property of RadMaskedNumericInput works with nullable double (double?) values and in some cases if you bound a string, it is possible that the control doesn't behave as expected.
