Disable F2 full

[Silvan]

Hi,

I want to disable the F2 in the DataGrid since i want use this key in a menuitem. I defined the F2 in a commandbinding in a menu, but it looks like the F2 key never arrive there if the DataGrid has the focus.

Any idea how i can solve this problem?

Thanks

Hi,

 Have you tried to set EditTriggers?

Yes, i set EditTriggers="None", but the F2-key still not function in menu (other keys defined in the menu like F3, etc. works without problems).

If i catch the PreviewKeyDown on the grid i can see that the F2 key was pressed, but is look like is not bubble up.

Hi Marcel,

Indeed RadGridView handles F2 key, since it is the default key for triggering edit mode on a current cell.
However you could override this behavior like demonstrated in this blog post.
Let me know if this doesn't help.

Thanks a lot, works perfect. And here the vb-code, if someone else need it one time:

Imports System.Collections.Generic
Imports Telerik.Windows.Controls
Imports Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView

Namespace CustomKeyboardProvider
    Public Class CustomKeyboardCommandProvider
        Inherits DefaultKeyboardCommandProvider
        Private parentGrid As GridViewDataControl
        Private defaultKeyboardProvider As DefaultKeyboardCommandProvider
        Private customKeyboardProvider As CustomKeyboardCommandProvider

        Public Sub New(ByVal grid As GridViewDataControl)
            MyBase.New(grid)
            Me.parentGrid = grid
        End Sub

        Public Overrides Function ProvideCommandsForKey(ByVal key__1 As Key) As IEnumerable(Of ICommand)
            Dim commandsToExecute As List(Of ICommand) = MyBase.ProvideCommandsForKey(key__1).ToList()

            If key__1 = Key.F2 Then
                commandsToExecute.Clear()
                commandsToExecute.Remove(RadGridViewCommands.BeginEdit)
            End If

            Return commandsToExecute
        End Function
    End Class
End Namespace

And in the code for the grid just set:

Me.myGrid.KeyboardCommandProvider = New CustomKeyboardProvider.CustomKeyboardCommandProvider(Me.myGrid)
