GridViewComboBoxColumn shows empty rows

[Jay]

I am trying similar to this code to show data in gridcombo but it shows empty rows. The number of rows in combo matches with number of List<> items but all are blank. I tried this in SL 3 Q2 and also in Q3 beta.

Can you please provide working sample? Also in demo can you please point where I can find similar sample?

GridViewComboBoxColumn comboColumn = new GridViewComboBoxColumn();
             comboColumn.HeaderText = "Country";
             comboColumn.DataMemberBinding = new Binding("CountryID");
             comboColumn.ItemsSource = GetCountries();
             comboColumn.DisplayMemberPath = "Name";
             comboColumn.SelectedValueMemberPath  = "ID";
             this.RadGridView1.Columns.Add(comboColumn);

private System.Collections.IEnumerable GetCountries()
         {
             List<Country> countries = new List<Country>();
             countries.Add(new Country(){ID=0, Name = "Germany"});
             countries.Add(new Country(){ID=1, Name = "Spain"});
             countries.Add(new Country(){ID=2, Name = "UK"});
             return countries;
         }

Thanks,
Jay

Hello Jay,

Your code is absolutely OK. If you click on a cell to start edit you should see the combo box editor .

Now the problem is in the display mode of the cells. I am wondering why do you not see any value.

Things you should check first are :
1. Does the CountryID column contain valid values ( e.g. integers in the range 0-2)
2. Is the type of the CoutryId column Integer or by accident  a string ?

For your reference I am attaching  a sample illustrating a combo box column in action.

* Note that when using GridViewComboBox column the ComboBox editor is visible when the cell is in edit mode.

Resolved without static resource, but with cellTemplate.
This template is used only for view data, while on edit is used the combo box.

<tlk:GridViewComboBoxColumn Header="Categoria"
    ItemsSource="{Binding Path=EntitiesAdditional[Categorie], Mode=TwoWay}"
    DataMemberBinding="{Binding Path=Categorie, Mode=TwoWay}"
    DisplayMemberPath="Nome" >
        <tlk:GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
            <DataTemplate>
                <TextBlock Text="{Binding Categorie.Nome}"></TextBlock>
            </DataTemplate>
        </tlk:GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
</tlk:GridViewComboBoxColumn>
