Don't allow user to move column left of frozen column?

[Ken]

Hi there,

I have a grid where I'm setting the first column frozen, hardcoding FrozenColumnCount="1" in the XAML.  I'm also allowing the user to reorder columns, but I don't want them to be able to move a column to the left of the frozen one, so I only ever have that 1 column frozen, is this possible?  Thanks!

Hi Ken,

In order to achieve your goal, you can use GridView's ColumnReordering event and cancel it if the args.NewDisplayIndex is equal to 0.

Thanks for the reply!  Where do you think the best place would be to do this if I don't want to use code behind, an attached behavior?

Hi,

If you want to have your code-behind clean, the way to go is with an Attached behavior. Here is a very nice article about event handling with attached behaviors.
