Bound GridViewCheckBoxColumn to update datasource on PropertyChanged/CheckChanged

Hi,

I have a bound GridViewCheckBoxColumn in my RadGridView. It is bound to an object that properly implements INotifyPropertyChanged etc.

My checkbox column updates the state of the object by "turning it on" such that when it's turned on, another field has it's value set.

However, the binding on the checkbox column only updates on Validation (i.e. leave cell, or row, or grid). I want it to occur sooner on PropertyChanged of the CheckBox.IsChecked property. In a regular winforms databinding scenario this would simply involve setting the DataSourceUpdateMode on the binding to OnPropertyChanged (default is OnValidation).

How can we get at the column/cell binding? Or is there already a property that I'm missing that wraps this functionality up?

Cheers,

Andrew.

Change background color of cell relative to data

I have a scheduler control displayed in timeline view, with resources and days.
If a resource (Consultant) is not available for a given day, we want to highlight this by setting the background colour of the intersection of his resource row and the date.

In the example image, no one is available on the 9th of September, and most arent available of the 8th either. However, Geoff Swindell is available on the 8th, but not on the 4th.

Because the CellFormatting event occurs as is drawn and before we have the data, we're having trouble colouring these rows.

Is it possible to format the cells AFTER we have this data?

Events and appointments will be overlaid on top of these dates, even if they're marked as unavailable.

Thank,
Karl

What event is triggered when appointment is moved

I use scheduler to show appointments. The scheduler is not mapped directly to some db table, so I have to handle persistence by myself. For adding and editing appointment I use CollectionChanged event of Appointments and it seems to work, however when the appointment is moved by dragging, the CollectionChanged event is fired with Action NotifyCollectionChangedAction.Batch and I don't know what appointment was changed. Can anybody give me a hint how to handle this situation?

Thank you

Separator on Menu

I'm using a RadMenu and I have added two Separators. How can I give them some type of visual appearance? The separators added a small amount of additional space beween menu items but does not give any type of visual. Do I need to add an image? What I would like to have is something close to "|" display.

Alternative Row Background Colors

I am using the VisualListItemFormatting event to achieve an alternating item background color effect like so:

Private _rowIndex As Integer = 0

Private Sub cmb_VisualListItemFormatting(sender As Object, args As VisualItemFormattingEventArgs) Handles cmb.VisualListItemFormatting

If _rowIndex Mod 2 = 0 Then

args.VisualItem.SetValue(LightVisualElement.BackColorProperty, Color.FromArgb(224, 226, 255))

args.VisualItem.SetValue(LightVisualElement.GradientStyleProperty, GradientStyles.Solid)

End If

_rowIndex = _rowIndex + 1

End Sub

However, this appears to affect the mouse over background color. Here's the default mouseover on a row not impacted by the formatting above (note the entire background is highlighted):

And here's the mouseover on a row impacted by the formatting (note that the background is not highlighted - only a border appears):
http://screencast.com/t/HD2AfEEs

How can I make these consistent? Preferably all of the items would have the entire background color changed. OR, is there a better way to achieve alternating item colors that would not cause this issue?

RadGridView available filter conditions

In my grid, I want to limit the available filter conditions as they don't apply. I am doing so in the ContextMenuOpening event:

Private Sub WorkLogGridView_ContextMenuOpening(sender As Object, e As ContextMenuOpeningEventArgs) Handles WorkLogGridView.ContextMenuOpening

If e.ContextMenuProvider IsNot Nothing Then

e.ContextMenu.Items.Remove(e.ContextMenu.Items.Single(Function(item) item.Text = "Contains"))

e.ContextMenu.Items.Remove(e.ContextMenu.Items.Single(Function(item) item.Text = "Does not contain"))

e.ContextMenu.Items.Remove(e.ContextMenu.Items.Single(Function(item) item.Text = "Starts with"))

e.ContextMenu.Items.Remove(e.ContextMenu.Items.Single(Function(item) item.Text = "Ends with"))

e.ContextMenu.Items.Remove(e.ContextMenu.Items.Single(Function(item) item.Text = "Is null"))

e.ContextMenu.Items.Remove(e.ContextMenu.Items.Single(Function(item) item.Text = "Is not null"))

e.ContextMenu.Items.Remove(e.ContextMenu.Items.Single(Function(item) item.Text = "Custom"))

End If

End Sub

This works correctly. However, note that I am removing the first default item "Contains". Even though it is removed, it is the default condition selected:
http://screencast.com/t/vFv78ZoLE

This shows that the items have been removed correctly:
http://screencast.com/t/tcotptFmN4aK

Ideally I would like either No filter or Equals selected by default instead of Contains.

In addition, I'd like this functionality to be different for different columns. I'm trying to find how to determine which column is applicable in the code above, but am not able to find the needed info. I've also tried to subscribe to the CurrentColumnChanged, ColumnIndexChanged, and ColumnIndexChanging event to stored the selected column but it appears those events do not fire when I click on the filter button.
