RadTaskBoard find item and scrolling into.

[Mohamad]

Hello,

My Radtaskboard contains dozens of items. How do I find an item and scroll to it so the user can find it?
I have made this code:


 foreach (taskboarddata item in MyRadTaskBoard.Items)
 {
     if (item.Id == itemidsearch)
     {
         this.MyRadTaskBoard.SelectedItem = item;


but only selection, the UI does not direct/point to the item.

Thank you for your help.

Hello Mohamad,

I am afraid that there is no built-in method for this. You can manually calculate the scroll offset:

 var scroll = taskBoard.FindChildByType<ScrollViewer>();
 int itemIndex = 20; 
 var offset = (scroll.ScrollableWidth / taskBoard.Items.Count) * itemIndex;
 scroll.ScrollToHorizontalOffset(offset);

I hope this helps. Should you have any other questions do not hesitate to ask.

Hello Dimitar, 
Thank you for the response.
What I mean is scroll vertically down in the appropriate column. My taskboard has 4 columns. How do I find the right scroll viewer?

Hi Mohamad, 

Can you send us a small sample project that shows your case? Perhaps with some sample data that shows how the control is populated.  This will allow us to properly investigate your case and provide a solution. 

Thank you in advance for your patience and cooperation.

Hello Dimitar, 

Regarding your code above where you show how to manually calculate the scroll offset, can you post more snippets around how this is used and the xaml where the ScrollViewer is defined? Mvvm if possible as well.

Thanks Dimitar.

Hello Mark, 

I have attached my test project. There is nothing specific about the XAML in this case. The scroll viewer is defined in the control template.
