How do I determine whether a row is already pinned

[Chris]

I am using RadGridViewCommands.TogglePinnedRowState to "toggle" the pinned value of a GridView row.  However,there are case where I don't know the initial state of the row, so I don't know whether it needs to be "toggled" to pin it or whether it is already pinned (in which case toggling would have the opposite effect of what I want).  How can I retrieve the "pinned" state of a row?

Hello Chris,

You can get pinned state of a row by its IsPinned property. Using the GetRowForItem method you can get the row for a particular item. You must, however, make some considerations due to RadGridView's UI virtualization mechanism, which only loads the rows that are currently in the viewport. Here is an example:

private void Button1_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    // will return the row if it is in the viewport
    var row = this.clubsGrid.GetRowForItem(this.clubsGrid.Items[200]);
    if (row != null)
    {
        MessageBox.Show(row.IsPinned.ToString());
    }
    else
    {
        // since the row is not in the viewport, it is not pinned
        MessageBox.Show("False");
    }
}

I hope you find this information helpful. Please let me know if any other questions or concerns arise.
