GridViewDataColumn - how to limit the number of characters when editing

[Jon]

How do you limit the number of characters that can be entered.

 

 

<telerikPresentation:GridViewDataColumn x:Name="units" DataMemberBinding="{Binding bale_cnt, Mode=TwoWay}" Header="Units" Width="95" TextAlignment="Right" />

Hi,

 You can define CellEditTemplate with desired controls/customizations.

Where can I find an example of the celledittemplate that limits the number of characters that can be entered?
thx

Hello,

 We don't have such example. The idea is to use TextBox in this template where you can set desired value for MaxLength property.

Example follows 

..

  <UserControl.Resources>
        <ResourceDictionary>
            <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
                <ResourceDictionary Source="pack://application:,,,/Hemit.OpPlan.Client.Module;component/Common/Resources/OpPlanStyles.xaml" />                          
            </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
 
            <Style TargetType="{x:Type TextBox}" x:Key="PasGroupCodeStyle">
                <Setter Property="MaxLength" Value="2" />
            </Style>
 
        </ResourceDictionary>
    </UserControl.Resources>
 
    <Grid>

.... 

   <telerik:RadGridView
            Grid.Row="1"
            Style="{StaticResource EditableGridViewStyle}"
            ItemsSource="{Binding ModelCollection}"
            RowIndicatorVisibility="Collapsed"
            CanUserFreezeColumns="False"
            AutoGenerateColumns="False"
            ShowGroupPanel="False"
            SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedModel, Mode=TwoWay}">
            <telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
                <telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Kode" DataMemberBinding="{Binding Code}" Width="300" EditorStyle="{StaticResource PasGroupCodeStyle}" />
                <telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Beskrivelse" DataMemberBinding="{Binding Text}" Width="300" />
                <telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Er aktiv" DataMemberBinding="{Binding IsInUse}" Width="80" />
            </telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
        </telerik:RadGridView>
