[Solved] Setting Unbound CheckBox.IsChecked

[suth]

Wondering how to set cbReached.IsChecked = true when the CheckBox is in an unbound column.  I have the row index number, but it is not in the Items collection and I am undable to find the control.
Thanks.

<telerikGridView:GridViewDataColumn UniqueName="Reached" >

 

    <telerikGridView:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>

 

        <DataTemplate>

 

            <CheckBox x:Name="cbReached"></CheckBox>

 

        </DataTemplate> 

 

    </telerikGridView:GridViewDataColumn.CellTemplate>

 

 

 

</telerikGridView:GridViewDataColumn>

Hello suth,

Just subscribe to the Loaded event of the CheckBox:

<telerik:GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
    <DataTemplate>
        <CheckBox x:Name="cbReached"
                  Loaded="cbReached_Loaded"></CheckBox>
    </DataTemplate>
</telerik:GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>

... And in the event handler determine if the column is unbound:

// required namespace: Telerik.Windows.Controls
private void cbReached_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    CheckBox checkBox = sender as CheckBox;
    GridViewCell parentCell = checkBox.ParentOfType<GridViewCell>();

    if (parentCell == null)
        return;

    GridViewDataColumn column = parentCell.Column as GridViewDataColumn;

    if (column == null || column.DataMemberBinding == null)
        checkBox.IsChecked = true;
}

Hope this helps.
