Get what Cell is loading

[John]

I have a RADGridview and I would like to be able to tell what cell is loading (ex: row 3 cell 2) from the CellLoaded event. I need to change some of the properties of the cell based on what cell it is.

Hi John,

Since RadGridView supports UI Virtualization, its rows/cells are reused, which means that on scrolling each row/cell is loaded and unloaded. This affects the row details on each row. You can check our online documentation on UI Virtualization for a further reference. 

That is why I would suggest you to work with the bound data instead. You can try applying a CellStyleSelector as a reliable approach and keep the row virtualization enabled.

Ok, I need to work with the bound data. How can I tell what the row in the bonded data the cell is bounding to . Just to be clear I am planning on using the CellLoaded event.
Thank you

How can I see what the bounded data is from the  CellLoaded event?

Hi John,

I am not sure how to understand your approach. Why do you insist on using the CellLoaded event? As I stated in my previous reply, working with the visual elements (GridViewCell) will not behave correctly on scrolling. Would you please share some more information on what the final goal you would like to achieve is?
