RadColorPaletteView SelectedColor ?

[Daniel Ruehle]

Hello telerikTeam,

I have an Issue with the SelectedColor in the RadColorPaletteView namely how can I get selectedColor ?
If I try this:

RadColorPaletteView colorPalette = sender as RadColorPaletteView;

RadColorPaletteViewItem selectedItem = colorPalette.SelectedItem;

I am getting null.

Could you please tell me what I am doing wrong ?

XAML

<telerik:RadColorPaletteView x:Name="BorderColor" Margin="0" Grid.Column="1" Palette="Standard" PaletteOrientation="Horizontal" Style="{StaticResource RadColorPaletteViewStyle}" VerticalAlignment="Center" PreviewMouseLeftButtonDown="ChangeColor"/>

Thank you.

Daniel

Hello,

I found out. I used just a wrong event Handler. But how can I access SelectedPalleteViewItem Property ?

BR,

Hello Daniel,

What exactly do you mean by saying "access the SelectedPalleteViewItem property". The reason why I am asking is because RadColorPaletteView does not contain a property called SelectedPalleteViewItem. It has a SelectedItem property which is of type Color. To access it, you can subscribe for the SelectionChanged event of RadColorPaletteView and obtain the selected color from there:

<telerik:RadColorPaletteView x:Name="BorderColor" Margin="0" Grid.Column="1"
        Palette="Standard" PaletteOrientation="Horizontal" VerticalAlignment="Center"
        SelectionChanged="ChangeColor" />

private void ChangeColor(object sender, SelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{
    if (BorderColor.SelectedItem != null)
    {
        MessageBox.Show(((Color)BorderColor.SelectedItem).ToString());
    }
}

I'm attaching my sample project for reference. Have a look at it and let me know how I can be of further assistance.

All the best,
