I just swapped out the http://slg40.codeplex.com/ property grid with your radPropertyGrid. The property grid is AutoGenerating the properties of the selected item from a radTreeView.
I'm liking it thus far except for an issue when editing string properties and changing the item the property grid is set to. For example:
I edit the string property Name from "Fred" to "Bob" in the property grid on item Alpha.
I then select a different item, then switch back to Alpha.
The change to Alpha is lost, displaying "Fred" again instead of "Bob".
However, if i change the Name like before, then lose Focus on the property (select a different Property in the property grid or press Enter or Tab) the property will be saved.
Is this intentional behavior? Can I force the property grid to set the string with each character change instead of on a lost focus event?

Hello Dave,
I have prepared a small sample for you. It illustrates a possible approach to achieve updating the source on each keystroke.
You can test it by running the app, placing a breakpoint in the setter of the FirstName property. It should be hit on each keystroke when changing the FirstName in the RadPropertyGrid.
Hope that helps.

This works, however...
Is there any other way to accomplish this in a more dynamic way? In my case, I don't want to have to set up dozens of data templates in XAML for each of the types of properties all of my different items could have, on top of having to maintain this list of data templates for any new property types.
Thanks!

Hello Dave,
A more generic solution would be to create the template in code - based on the template given , and only changing the name of the bound property - e.g. using XAMLReader.Load .
