Setting selectitem from viewmodel / Paging...

[Alexander Kotchkin]

Hello,

I have a Gridview with Client side paging.  When I set the selected Item from the View Model, and the item is not on the current page, how can I make the gridview jump to the corresponding page? Is this possible?

Thanks,

Jesus

Hi Jesus Janne,

The only way to do that would be to calculate on which page will the new selected item be, move to that page and then select it. That is because when there is paging, RadGridView is totally unaware that there are pages other than the one it is currently showing. In fact, it is totally unaware that there is paging at all -- it "thinks" that someone is simply setting a new ItemsSource with [PageSize] number of items, each time the page is changed.

I hope this helps.
