Select an item in Hierarchical gridview

[Angshuman]

Please let me know how I can:

1. Programmatically select an item in a Hierarchical gridview. I want to select items both from the inner and the outer grids.

2. If an item (in the outer grid ) is not in the visible range and it has been expanded programmatically, how I can bring it up in the visible range.

Hello Angshuman,

1. You need to get the child grid and set its SelectedItem property:

private void Button2_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            if(this.clubsGrid.SelectedItem != null)
            {
                var selectedRow = this.clubsGrid.ItemContainerGenerator.ContainerFromItem(this.clubsGrid.SelectedItem) as GridViewRow;
                var childGrid = selectedRow.ChildrenOfType<GridViewDataControl>().FirstOrDefault();
                if(childGrid != null)
                {
                    childGrid.SelectedItem = childGrid.Items[1];
                }
            }
        }

2.  You may take a look at this article for a reference.
