Problems exporting grid data

[Weverton]

Hi,

I'm getting a problem when I try to export grid data:

1. The enum values that are displayed normally in grid, using IValueConverter's, after data export are show on the file as object class full namespace (e.g. MyCompany.Domain.DTO.MyClass). I have already tried to use event ElementExporting, but the Value property of GridViewElementExportingEventArgs never brings the enum to me; it brings the full object on enum columns.

Please se the two attached images: the file generated by GridView and the expected file.

Thanks,

Hi Weverton,

 I have tried to reproduce the behavior that you are experiencing. I am binding a GridViewDataColumn to an enum property and I am using a converter to change its value.
Unfortunately I was not able to get exported the original value instead of the converted one.

I have prepared a sample project that contains a column Position that is bound to an enum property. I have added a EnumConverter.cs and I have a Export button for exporting to Csv.

Would you please review the project and change it accordingly, so that the specified wrong behavior occurs? That way we could investigate it further.

Best wishes,

Hi,

There is a difference between your example and my case: I use CellTemplate. How can I do in this case??

Hi,

 You need to handle ElementExporting event and set e.Value. Please refer to our exporting demo.
