Adding controls to rows InitializeRow

540

lax posted over 13 years ago

I am adding controls to grid rows based on the data type. I have grid in a tab control when I switch the tab away from Grid tab and come back all the controls in the rows are messed up.

Here is my sample code..

Any response will be appreciated.

Sure.

Just modify the ContentControl to look like this:

<ContentControl Content="{Binding}" ContentTemplate="{Binding  Converter={StaticResource myValConverter} }"/>

Now in your ValueConverter, value will be of type : PropertyWrapper instead of type string.

However, now the Binding won't support OneWay/TwoWay bindings. Do you expect either of the 2 properties

that you're checking to change at run time. If not, then this should be fine.

Hi,

I don't have a full sample for you, however, here is some pseudo code for the way i might go about it:

Here is the ValueConverter based off of your code, note you'd need to put the DataTemplates in your App.xaml:

public class MyViewValueConverter : IValueConverter
    {
        #region IValueConverter Members

        public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
        {
            string data = value as string;
            if (data == null)
                return null;

            DataTemplate dt = null;

            
                switch (data.ToLower())
                {
                    case "date":
                        {
                            dt = Application.Current.Resources["ColDatePicker"] as DataTemplate;
                            break;
                        }
                    case "varchar":
                        {
                            dt = Application.Current.Resources["ColText"] as DataTemplate;
                            break;
                        }
                    case "float":
                        {
                            dt = Application.Current.Resources["ColFloatNumericUpdown"] as DataTemplate;
                            break;
                        }
                    case "int":
                        {
                            dt = Application.Current.Resources["ColIntNumericUpdown"] as DataTemplate;
                            break;
                        }
                    case "char":
                        {
                            dt = Application.Current.Resources["ColText"] as DataTemplate;
                            break;
                        }
                    case "bit":
                        {
                            dt = Application.Current.Resources["Colcombobox"] as DataTemplate;
                            break;
                        }
                
            }

            return dt;
        }

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

        #endregion
    }

Then your TemplateColumn would look something like this:

 <ig:XamGrid.Columns>
                <ig:TemplateColumn Key="SqlDataType">
                    <ig:TemplateColumn.ItemTemplate>
                        <DataTemplate>
                            <ContentControl Content="{Binding}" ContentTemplate="{Binding SqlDataType, Converter={StaticResource myValConverter} }"/>
                        </DataTemplate>
                    </ig:TemplateColumn.ItemTemplate>
                </ig:TemplateColumn>
            </ig:XamGrid.Columns>

Hope this helps,

-SteveZ
