Open RadDataForm in Add new Item Mode

[Nelson]

Hi,

Is possible have a DataForm open in Add new Item template, without click in any button?

Thanks

Hi Nelson,

You may try invoking AddNewItem() on RadDataForm's Loaded event. Please, refer to the attached project.

Kind regards,

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

I did what you said, but doesn´t work. I have this code in my XAML.

<DataTemplate x:Key="Adicionar">
            <!--<StackPanel Margin="10,1,0,0">-->
                <Grid Name="GrdPrincipal">

        </telerik:RadDataForm>

As you can see, I use a DataTemplate for my DataForm. What I want is make available the commit button, like in "new item mode".

And as you know, I can´t create only NewItemTemplate.

Any help please?

Thanks in advance

Hi Nelson,

Obviously I have misunderstood your requirements. Would you please give us a bit more info? You want to keep the RadDataForm in edit mode, so that you can immediately commit any changes, am I right? Please, try setting AutoEdit to "true" and inform us whether this behavior fits your needs.

Best wishes,
