Disable Cell Editing on a Row by Row basis?
posted

I have a combobox control in a XamGrid that I need to disable on a row by row basis (depending on values in other columns).  I also need to be able to set a tooltip on the cell to explain to the user why they cannot change the combobox for that cell. 

I see IsReadOnly at the column level but this won't help me in this case.

Is this possible in an XamGrid?

    Hi, 

    I would recommend using a ValueConverter via a binding on the IsEnabled property of your ComboBox, you can do the samething for your tooltip. 

    <ComboBox IsEnabled={Binding Converter={StaticResource yourConverter}/>

    The value of the IValueConverter will be your underlying data, so you'll be able to do your validation, and you can return true if it should be enabled for false if it shouldn't be. 

    For the tooltip, you can write another converter, and return the text that should be displayed, or update the visibility, if the text is always the same.
