I have an issue with using a TimePicker inside my RadGridView. Here's my XAML:

    
            <telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Start Time" DataMemberBinding="{Binding SStartTime, Mode=TwoWay}"> 
        
                                <telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate> 
        
                                    <DataTemplate> 
        
                                        <TextBlock Text="{Binding SStartTime, Mode=TwoWay, Converter={StaticResource TimeStringConverter}}" /> 
        
                                    </DataTemplate> 
        
                                </telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate> 
        
                                <telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellEditTemplate> 
        
                                    <DataTemplate> 
        
                                        <telerik:RadTimePicker SelectedTime="{Binding SStartTime, Mode=TwoWay}" StartTime="0:0:0" EndTime="23:0:0"/> 
        
                                    </DataTemplate> 
        
                                </telerik:GridViewDataColumn.CellEditTemplate> 
        
                            </telerik:GridViewDataColumn>

So, everything is fine if I use the TimePicker to select the time using my mouse. If I type a time in to the control and don't select the time with my mouse the underlying data is NOT updated (and on the TimePicker control this usually works fine). Any thoughts?

Hi Dean,

The problem is that the value of the RadTimePicker is updated on lost focus event of the editor. When this lost focus event happens it is too late, because RadGridView has already committed the new value to the underlying property of you object.

We plan to introduce UpdateValueEvent property on RadTimePicker control, similarly as we did in RadNumericUpDown control. This property will allow you to change the behavior of the control so that whenever a valid value is entered into the text box it will be immediately set on your business object.

All the best,
