Use FormatString in Code Behind
posted

I know I can apply FormatString to format Column Display in XAML. But I want to format Columns dynamically (depending on some conditions). How can I implement it in Code Behind? Thanks.

    You can use valueConverter

     

    It would look like

     public class DecimalEditorValueConverter : IValueConverter
        {
            public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
            {
                return String.Format(culture, "{0:N2}", value);
            }

            public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)
            {
                return value;
            }
        }

     

    and in xaml use it with your control as

      ValueConverter="{StaticResource DecimalEditorValueConverter }"
