Problem with ScrollViewer inside a cell

[Patrick]

Hello,

I have a case when the grid view must display plenty of data in a cell (in a log display). To avoid having very high rows, I have defined a template for the cell, as following:

<tk:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>
  <DataTemplate>
    <ScrollViewer Background="Transparent"
              BorderThickness="0"
              Margin="0 1"
              MaxHeight="150">
 <TextBlock Text="{Binding Request}" />
    </ScrollViewer>
  </DataTemplate>
</tk:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>

 

The problem is that, when I click on the cell, the row is not selected.

Hi Patrick,

Thank you for the provided code snippet.

For displaying additional information I would suggest you use our Row Details feature of the RadGridView. I hope this feature will work for you.

Hi Dinko,

I know about the row details feature, but it is not usable in my case, as the content of this column must be always visible...

The use is to display a log of the requests that the application is sending to a web service, without the requests, the log is unusable.

Hello Patrick,

Thank you for your confirmation.

What you can do in this case is to set the Focusable property of the ScrollViewer to false.

<tk:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>
    <DataTemplate>
        <ScrollViewer Background="Transparent"
                        BorderThickness="0"
                        Margin="0 1"
                        MaxHeight="150"
                        Focusable="False">      
            <TextBlock Text="{Binding Request}" />
        </ScrollViewer>
    </DataTemplate>
</tk:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>
