how to automatically expand rowdetails on newly inserted row

[Randy Hompesch]

The title says it all, I have a readonly gridview. In response to a button click I fire off a command in my vm to insert a new record in the bound collection. At the time this happens I need to expand the row details dataform so they can enter in the desired info. How to expand the rowdetails in this case from my viewmodel?

Thanks ... Ed

Hi Ed,

The approach for satisfying such requirement is discussed in the Programatically expand a specific row's details and select a grid row inside those details forum thread. Can you please take a look at it?

As to expanding the RowDetails from the ViewModel, I am afraid that I cannot suggest a particular implementation. If you want to avoid using the code behind for this operation, you may consider using an attached behavior.

Would such approach suit your needs?

Hi,

I solved it by using the eventbindings and catching the RowLoaded event.
Then in my VM I toggled the row's visibility.

Thanks ... Ed
