Edit cell using tab

[venkateshwarreddy]

Hi team

Please help me ,Very important task for me .As soon as possible send me sample by tomorrow morning.


currently when we double click only we are getting cell in edit mode  in rad gridview 
requirement:
When using tab and navigating through gridview cells ,the cell  should be in edit mode .


Thank you .

[Christopher]

As I understand it, the current full release of the WPF RadGridView control does not natively support this this behavior.

I have however implemented this behavior for a project. You'll need to create an EventSetter to handle the KeyDown event of the GridViewCell.

In your KeyDown handler you can capture the tab key presses and move focus to the correct cell and mark it as in edit.  You'll also want to handle Shift + Tab (moving backwards through the cells) as well as moving to the next/previous records.

Be sure to commit the edit in the previous cell before setting the next cell to be in edit mode.  If you don't do this, you'll lose any changes to the previous cells value.

Once you handle the key press be sure to mark the KeyEventArgs has having been handled so the event isn't processed by the GridView control.

The code is a bit lengthy so I have opted not to post it here.

Hope this helps,
  Chris

Hi Christopher,

Thank you for idea ,but can u send me only the code that you have in keydown event  and to commit the edit in previous cell


Please waiting for your reply send me as soon as possible.


Thank you.

Hi Christopher



Please help me send only the event code


Urgent
Thankyou.

[Christopher]

Here is the code.  It has not been refactored in any way yet, as such there is probably a cleaner way to get the job done.

KeyDown handler:

private void Cell_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs args)
        {
            args.Handled = HandleCellKeyPress((GridViewCell)sender,args);
        }

HandleCellKeyPress Method:

private bool HandleCellKeyPress(GridViewCell cell, KeyEventArgs args)
        {
            Field currentField = cell.Field;
            int currentFieldID = grid.CurrentRecord.Fields.IndexOf(currentField);
            int currentRecordID = grid.Records.IndexOf(grid.CurrentRecord);

            if (args.Key == Key.Tab && args.KeyboardDevice.Modifiers == ModifierKeys.Shift)
            {
                cell.CommitEdit();
                if (currentFieldID > 1)
                {
                    grid.CurrentRecord.Fields[currentFieldID - 1].IsCurrent = true;
                    grid.CurrentRecord.Fields[currentFieldID - 1].IsInEditMode = true; ;
                }
                else
                {
                    if (grid.CurrentRecord != grid.Records.First())
                    {
                        grid.CurrentRecord = grid.Records[currentRecordID - 1];
                        grid.CurrentRecord.IsCurrent = true;
                        grid.CurrentRecord.IsSelected = true;
                        grid.CurrentRecord.Fields[3].IsCurrent = true;
                        grid.CurrentRecord.Fields[3].IsInEditMode = true;
                    }
                }
                return true;
            }
            else if (args.Key == Key.Tab)
            {
                if (currentFieldID < 3)
                {
                    cell.CommitEdit();
                    grid.CurrentRecord.Fields[currentFieldID + 1].IsCurrent = true;
                    grid.CurrentRecord.Fields[currentFieldID + 1].IsInEditMode = true;
                }
                else
                {
                    if (grid.CurrentRecord == grid.Records.Last())
                    {
                        cell.CommitEdit();
                        if (AddGas())
                        {
                            grid.CurrentRecord = grid.Records[currentRecordID + 1];
                            grid.CurrentRecord.IsCurrent = true;
                            grid.CurrentRecord.IsSelected = true;
                            grid.CurrentRecord.Fields[1].IsCurrent = true;
                            grid.CurrentRecord.Fields[1].IsInEditMode = true;
                        }
                        else
                        {
                            currentField.IsCurrent = true;
                            currentField.IsInEditMode = true;
                        }
                    }
                    else

                        grid.CurrentRecord = grid.Records[currentRecordID + 1];
                        grid.CurrentRecord.IsCurrent = true;
                        grid.CurrentRecord.IsSelected = true;

            {
                return false;
            }
        }

Hi Cristopher,

I will be thankfull to you for sending me code .
But i am getting errors for this below three lines  that it does not support <>,== operators and addgas() method is what about.

1)if grid .CurrentRecord <> grid.Records.First()
2)if grid.CurrentRecord = grid.Records.Last() Then
3)AddGas()



Please help me to go forward waiting for your reply


yours  faithfully,
venkat

1 and 2 are Linq methods.  Add a using statement for System.Linq.

3. AddGas you will need to rename and code for your application.   That method is adding a new data object to the list the grid is bound to and rebinding the grid. Thus adding a new record.  It returns a boolean result indicating whether the add was successful. 

This is to support adding a new record via tabbing out of the last cell in the last row.  If you do not want to support that functionality simply remove AddGas if block.

Hi Christoper,

Thank you for your co-operation.

but still i am getting error here
1)Error 1 Operator '<>' is not defined for types 'Telerik.Windows.Data.Record'  

I am getting errors at  the same 2 positions which i mentioned in my previous query.


Please kindly help me so that i may complete my task

Waiting for your reply as soon as possible

Thanking once again.

Hi Christopher,

Sorry I made syntax mistake i corrected it but event is not firing.

my application is hierarchy gridview is this works with both child and parent table with tab.


Thank you .

[venkateshwarreddy]

Hi Christopher,

Forgive me,once again it is my fault .the application is working fine

two issues:
from second cell it is becoming in edit mode.

and i am using hierarchy how to edit for child table cells with tab.


You are great sir,

Thank you very much for ever.

[Christopher]

1) For the issue with the first cell not entering edit mode.  You could try setting a GotFocus handler for the GridViewCell and setting the cell to be in edit mode once it gets focus.  I haven't seen that particular issue in my setup.

2)  I haven't used the RadGridView in a hierarchical way yet.  I'm not sure off hand what changes would need to be made support tabbing from a parent record into a child.  If I get a chance I'll try that later today.

Sorry I don't have a better answer for you right now.

Chris

[venkateshwarreddy]
