Hi, right now I'm using the WPF GridView, and have the filter row turned on. I've turned off the filtering panel and instead selected a default filter for the user to make it simple. But my problem is that if a user has their cursor in the first filtering textbox and they hit the "tab" button, it selects the next filtering cell, rather than the next filtering textbox. They're essentially having to press tab twice to move from filter textbox to filter textbox.

 

I saw the "TabStopMode="Skip"" but that seems to only apply to the actual cells of the gridview, not the filter row. So how do I prevent having to double tab in the filter row?

Hello Jason,

May I ask you some questions in order to better assist you? Can you let me know what you mean by "I've turned off the filtering panel"? Have you made any modifications to the FieldFilterControl's ControlTemplate? If so, may I ask you to share them so that I can better understand the described scenario?

As for the TabStopMode, indeed this is a property of the column and is applied to the GridViewCell elements. However, the GridView FieldFilterControl which is responsible for filtering when the FilteringMode is FilterRow, is inside the GridViewHeaderCell element.

I am looking forward to your reply.

Hi, yes, I did modify the field filter control template as such:

<Style x:Key="FieldFilterDropDownButtonStyle" TargetType="telerik:RadDropDownButton">
           <Setter Property="IsOpen" Value="false"/>
           <Setter Property="BorderThickness" Value="1"/>
           <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment" Value="Center"/>
           <Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment" Value="Center"/>
           <Setter Property="Template">
               <Setter.Value>
                   <ControlTemplate TargetType="telerik:RadDropDownButton">
                       <Grid>
                           <ContentPresenter x:Name="Content"
                               ContentTemplate="{TemplateBinding ContentTemplate}"
                               Content="{TemplateBinding Content}"
                               Margin="{TemplateBinding Padding}"
                               HorizontalAlignment="{TemplateBinding HorizontalContentAlignment}"
                               VerticalAlignment="{TemplateBinding VerticalContentAlignment}"/>
                           <Popup x:Name="DropDownPopup" mat:ThemeEffectsHelper.IsAcrylic="True">
                               <Border x:Name="DropDownPopupBorder" Background="{telerik1:FluentResource ResourceKey=AlternativeBrush}">

                                       ContentTemplate="{TemplateBinding DropDownContentTemplate}"
                                       Content="{TemplateBinding DropDownContent}"
                                       DataContext="{TemplateBinding DataContext}"
                                       HorizontalAlignment="Stretch"
                                       VerticalAlignment="Stretch"/>
                               </Border>
                           </Popup>
                       </Grid>
                       <!--<ControlTemplate.Triggers>
                           <Trigger SourceName="DropDownPopup" Property="mat:ThemeEffectsHelper.IsAcrylic" Value="True">

                           </Trigger>
                       </ControlTemplate.Triggers>-->
                   </ControlTemplate>
               </Setter.Value>
           </Setter>
       </Style>
       <ControlTemplate x:Key="FieldFilterControlTemplate" TargetType="grid:FieldFilterControl">
           <Border BorderBrush="{TemplateBinding BorderBrush}" BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}" Padding="{TemplateBinding Padding}">
               <Grid x:Name="PART_MainGrid">

                   <ContentControl x:Name="PART_FilterEditorContentControl" Margin="3 0" IsEnabled="{Binding EditorIsEnabled}" HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch" VerticalContentAlignment="Stretch"/>
                   <!--<telerik:RadDropDownButton x:Name="PART_DropDownButton" Grid.Column="1" Style="{StaticResource FieldFilterDropDownButtonStyle}" KeepOpen="False" DropDownIndicatorVisibility="Collapsed">
                       <Border Cursor="Hand" Background="Transparent" Padding="2 0 5 0">
                           <Grid Width="12" Height="11" Margin="2">
                               <telerik:RadGlyph FontSize="16" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" Foreground="{TemplateBinding Foreground}" Glyph="{StaticResource GlyphFilterSmall}"/>

                               ItemsSource="{Binding AvailableOperatorViewModels}"
                               SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedOperatorViewModel, Mode=TwoWay}"/>
                       </telerik:RadDropDownButton.DropDownContent>
                   </telerik:RadDropDownButton> -->
               </Grid>
           </Border>
       </ControlTemplate>
       <Style x:Key="FieldFilterControlStyle" TargetType="grid:FieldFilterControl">
           <Setter Property="Template" Value="{StaticResource FieldFilterControlTemplate}"/>

           <Setter Property="MinHeight" Value="31"/>
           <Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Normal"/>
           <Setter Property="telerik:TouchManager.TouchMode" Value="None"/>
       </Style>
       <Style TargetType="grid:FieldFilterControl" BasedOn="{StaticResource FieldFilterControlStyle}"/>

 

I also, interrupted the EditorCreatedEvent to hide the "Match Case" button, and the FilterOperatorsLoadingEvent to set default filter values:

        private void gridView_FieldFilterEditorCreated2(object sender, Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.EditorCreatedEventArgs e)
        {
            //get the StringFilterEditor in your RadGridView
            var stringFilterEditor = e.Editor as Telerik.Windows.Controls.Filtering.Editors.StringFilterEditor;
 
 
            if (stringFilterEditor != null)
            {
                stringFilterEditor.MatchCaseVisibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
                //stringFilterEditor.
                //stringFilterEditor.Loaded += new RoutedEventHandler(stringFilterEditor_Loaded);
                stringFilterEditor.Loaded += (s1, e1) =>
                {
                    var textBox = e.Editor.ChildrenOfType<TextBox>().Single();
                    textBox.BorderBrush = Brushes.Transparent;
                    //textBox.Margin = new Thickness(0, 0, 5, 0);
                    textBox.MinWidth = 0;
                     
                    textBox.TextChanged += (s2, e2) =>
                    {                     
                        textBox.GetBindingExpression(TextBox.TextProperty).UpdateSource();
                        textBox.Focus();
                    };
                };
            }
        }
 
((Telerik.Windows.Controls.Filtering.Editors.StringFilterEditor)sender).ChildrenOfType<System.Windows.Controls.Primitives.ButtonBase>().ToArray()[1].Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
        //}
        private void OnRadGridViewFilterOperatorsLoading(object sender, Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.FilterOperatorsLoadingEventArgs e)
        {
            if(e.Column.UniqueName.Contains("Type"))
                    e.DefaultOperator1 = Telerik.Windows.Data.FilterOperator.Contains;
            else if (e.Column.UniqueName.Contains("Buildup"))
                    e.DefaultOperator1 = Telerik.Windows.Data.FilterOperator.Contains;
            else if (e.Column.UniqueName.Contains("FireRatingRef"))
                    e.DefaultOperator1 = Telerik.Windows.Data.FilterOperator.Contains;
            else if (e.Column.UniqueName.Contains("FireRating"))
                    e.DefaultOperator1 = Telerik.Windows.Data.FilterOperator.Contains;
            else if (e.Column.UniqueName.Contains("STCRef"))
                    e.DefaultOperator1 = Telerik.Windows.Data.FilterOperator.Contains;
            else if (e.Column.UniqueName.Contains("STC"))
                    e.DefaultOperator1 = Telerik.Windows.Data.FilterOperator.IsGreaterThanOrEqualTo;
            else if (e.Column.UniqueName.Contains("Notes"))
                    e.DefaultOperator1 = Telerik.Windows.Data.FilterOperator.Contains;
            else if (e.Column.UniqueName.Contains("AuditResult"))
                    e.DefaultOperator1 = Telerik.Windows.Data.FilterOperator.IsEqualTo;
 
        }

 

The end result of all of this is that I end up with a gridview, with text filter boxes, that provide a highly simplified interface with "filter as you type" like the attached image. The problem is just that hitting tab once tabs to the next header cell, and the second tab gets you into the next filter textbox, whereas I want to skip tab selecting the cell and go straight into the next filtering box:

Hello Jason,

Thank you for the detailed information. It was very helpful in understanding the exact scenario.

I believe you should be able to achieve what you are going for by setting the IsTabStop property of the ContentControl inside the ControlTemplate of the FieldFilterControl to False. I am attaching a sample project which I prepared to demonstrate this for your reference. 

I hope this helps.
