Row Details Editing

[James Morgan]

Hello,

I have GridView that has a RowDetailsTemplate specified.

I am trying to figure out how to force the row in a GridView into Edit Mode when the user is editing a property that is displayed in the Row Details template of that row.  The GridView properly goes into Edit Mode when I edit a cell in the row, but not when I am in the Row Details.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

James

Hi James,

When you start editing the details row, then you could invoke a BeginEdit for its parent GridViewRow.
For example:

private void detailsGrid_BeginningEdit_1(object sender, GridViewBeginningEditRoutedEventArgs e)
{
   (sender as RadGridView).ParentRow.BeginEdit();
}

How does this work for you?

Hi Didie,

I was able to get that working.  Thank you.

I bound a command to the GotFocus event and was able to make the Grid View row go into Edit Mode.  Now I have another problem, where when this occurs, the focus leaves my current control and moves to the first editable column in the Grid View.  I would like to keep focus on the control I was just on.  I have passed the current control as a parameter and called Focus() on it, but the focus won't leave my first editable column.  The first column in this case would be a GridViewComboBoxColumn.

Any ideas?

Hello James,

What is the result if you place the first column to be not a GridViewComboBoxColumn, but a GridViewDataColumn? Would you also try to invoke GridView.CommitEdit before setting the focus for the control?
