Columns created in code behind do not call ConvertBack in Converter
posted

Hi,

I have a xamgrid that is built with code behind columns.  They work fine, however if I use a Converter, the column never calls the ConvertBack() method, however the Convert() method does get called.

This may be because codebehind columns are defaulted to OneWay Binding, but I do not know how to set the binding mode in code behind.

If it is not the binding mode I don't know what could be causing this, any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Chad

    Hi Chad,

    XamGrid's columns have two properties related to Converters and these are ValueConverter and EditorValueConverter. When a cell is not in edit mode the binding is one way and only the Convert method of the converter provided to ValueConverter is used. When a cell is in edit mode the converter provided to EditorValueConverter is used and in this case the binding is TwoWay an the ConvertBack method is used. 

    I suppose you have use only ValueConverter and that is why the ConvertBack method is not hit.

     

    Hope this helps,
