double click event on rowdetails not working

[mirang]

The double click event does not work with the rowdetailstemplate. That is, I have a row details template and when i double click on that area the handler does not get execute. Any special handling to be done here ?

Hi Mirang,

 

You may try to use the events fired from the elements inside the RowDetails - the TextBox-es and Buttons for example. Once you capture the neccessary event, you can implement the logic you need inside.
You may take a look at the following forum thread which demonstrates how to access different elements from RowDetails. The same is valid for Silverlight as well.

So in that case would i have to programatically check for double clicks, instead of using 
AddHandler(GridViewCellBase.CellDoubleClickEvent, 
provided by the Grid?

Hi Mirang,

 

Thank you for getting back to us! 
Yes, you should do exactly the same. From the UX point of view the RowDetails elements is simply a Border with single ContentPresenter, there are no GridViewCells. You are the person who defines these details and you shoud check by your side for double clicks.
