PropertyGrid does not update nested properties properly

[Jürgen]

Hi,
I want to show the properties of an nested object a runtime. I defined a enumeration on which the object is created.

01.namespace RadGridView_SL4_AR_12
02.{
03.    /// <summary>
04.    /// A football position.
05.    /// </summary>
06.    public enum Position
07.    {
08.        GK, // create a GKPositionBehaviour
09.        DF, // create a DFPositionBehaviour
10.        MF, // create a MFPositionBehaviour
11.        FW  // create a FWPositionBehaviour
12.    }
13.
14.    public class GKPositionBehaviour
15.    {
16.        public int A { get; set; }
17.    }
18.
19.    public class DFPositionBehaviour
20.    {
21.        public int B { get; set; }
22.    }
23.
24.    public class MFPositionBehaviour
25.    {
26.        public int C { get; set; }
27.    }
28.
29.    public class FWPositionBehaviour
30.    {
31.        public int D { get; set; }
32.    }
33.
34.}

Here is my viewmodel which does the instantiation of of the object.

01.namespace RadPropertyGridTester
02.{
03.    public class MyViewModel : INotifyPropertyChanged
04.    {
05.
06.        private Position position = Position.DF;
07.        public Position Position
08.        {
09.            get
10.            {
11.                return position;
12.            }
13.
14.            set
15.            {
16.                position = value;
17.                switch (position)
18.                {
19.                    case Position.DF:
20.                    Behavior = new DFPositionBehaviour();
21.                        break;
22.                    case Position.GK:
23.                    Behavior = new GKPositionBehaviour();
24.                        break;
25.                    case Position.MF:
26.                        Behavior = new MFPositionBehaviour();
27.                        break;
28.                    case Position.FW:
29.                        Behavior = new FWPositionBehaviour();
30.                        break;
31.                }
32.
33.                OnPropertyChanged("Position");
34.            }
35.        }
36.
37.        private Object behavior = new DFPositionBehaviour();
38.        public Object Behavior
39.        {
40.            get
41.            {
42.                return behavior;
43.            }
44.
45.            set
46.            {
47.                behavior = value;
48.                OnPropertyChanged("Behavior");
49.            }
50.        }
51.        // abbreviated for clarity
52.     }
53.}

When I start the program, the initial look is as expected, but when I change the property in the "Position" combo box, the property name of my Behavior object is not updated at all.
After changing to Position GK the value for the property name is supposed to be "A" and not "B".
How do i work around this bug?

Hi Jürgen, 

I noticed that a colleague of mine has posted an answer to the same question in the other support thread you have opened. In order to achieve a fruitful and consistent dialogue, I would ask you to carry out any further communication there. Thank you.
