Insert New Row in ReadOnly RadGridView

Updated on Sep 24, 2025

When the RadGridView is read-only or bound to a collection that does not implement the INotifyCollectionChanged interface you can use the RadGridView Items collection's AddNewItem() method to add an item and select it if needed. Example 1 shows how this can be done:

Example 1: Inser New Row in ReadOnly RadGridView

C#

	private void Button1_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
	{
		var item = new Club() { Name = "New Club" };
		this.myGridView.Items.AddNewItem(item);
		this.myGridView.SelectedItem = item; // select the new row if required
	}
