Detect if scrollbar is visible

[Håkan]

Hi!

Is there anyway I can detect if a scrollbar in a GridView is visible or not if property is set to Auto?

Hello,

Using the ChildrenOfType<> extension method , you can find the GridViewScrollViewer. Somtehing like : 

this.RadGridView1.ChildrenOfType<GridViewScrollViewer>();

Hi,

I have done that already, but I can't seem to find any suitable property on it.

I'm doing this when the collection in my view model changes.
Tried to check if ExtentHeight is larger than ViewportHeight but sometimes it it larget even thought the scrollbar is not visible.
That happens if you remove items until the scrollbar is hidden.

Hello,

The ScrollViewer has  viewport height and extent height .If the extent is larger than the viewport - > a scroll bar appears.

Hi Pavel.

I'm doing as you say, but it seems to be in the wrong place.
I do the check in the CollectionChanged event.

My grid fits 10 records so the scrollbar appears when adding the 11:th.
But at that point the ExtentHeight is 260 and the ViewportHeight is 261, so it seems the 11:th record is not added to the grid at this point.

If I remove the 11:th record, the ExtentHeight is 286, so that meend it's still in the grid at this point.

Is there a better place to do the check, when the grid is actually updated after the CollectionChanged event?

Hello,

You may try to perform the extent/viewport check in the LayoutUpdated event of RadGridView.
