Group Header Template

[Santor]

I'm working on a application where I have two levels of group headers (resourcetypes). I want to change the GroupHeaderTemplateSelector for the top group header.

Can I only apply the custom header template to one header? Or is the GroupHeaderTemplateSelector always for every group header?

Hi Santor,

You can create a class that inherits ScheduleViewDataTemplateSelector and in its SelectTemplate method tell which DataTemplate to load for each GroupHeader. The approach is demonstrated in this online example.

Hope this helps.

Hi Yana,

I just opened a support ticket about that, because the OrientedGroupHeaderContentTemplateSelector used also in the example is not working anymore with the latest internal build n.620 and it was told to me that it's obsolete, so I was looking for another way to use template with my group header like Santor ...

But I've just noticed that in the example the OrientedGroupHeaderContentTemplateSelector is implemented in a derived class, while in the template of the SP1 2011 it was an internal class with the same name, is it right ?

Hello Andrea,

That's right, in Q2 Beta release OrientedGroupHeaderContentTemplateSelector is obsolete and you should replace it with GroupHeaderTemplateSelector.  The suggested in my previous post example shows how to use the new selector in order to achieve the same as in Q1 result.
