[Solved] Editing GridView header

[Niranjan]

Hi All,

Is it possible to edit GridView header? When user double clicks the header column, it should allow me to change the header text.

Please let me know if anyone have any solution for this.

Thanks in advance

Regards,

Hello Niranjan,

Basically, you may predefine the ContentTemplate of the GridViewHeaderCell and put a custom control of yours that handles the double-click and editing. For example:

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn DataMemberBinding="{Binding Name}" >
    <telerik:GridViewDataColumn.HeaderCellStyle>
        <Style TargetType="telerik:GridViewHeaderCell">
            <Setter Property="ContentTemplate">
                <Setter.Value>
             <DataTemplate>
                <TextBlock Text="MyHeader"                                                      VerticalAlignment="Center"
                      HorizontalAlignment="Center"/>                                      </DataTemplat>
           </Setter.Value>
             </Setter>
        </Style>
   </telerik:GridViewDataColumn.HeaderCellStyle>
</telerik:GridViewDataColumn>

Here the code is with a TextBlock, but this is the place to put the custom control you create.
