Right align summary cells

Melissa posted over 15 years ago

I have a column of numbers for which I create a summary definition. The position of this summary is directly under the same column (SummaryPosition.UseSummaryPositionField). The problem is that the number column is right aligned but the summary cell itself - since it's a string - is left aligned.

This looks unprofessional. I would like the summary for this column to be right aligned. Is there a simple way of doing this?

It's 2017. Is there a way to right-align the summary cells without using a converter?

Infragistics.Windows.Datapresenter.SummaryDefinition.Position doesn't really help either.

I can't find KnownBoxes class under Infragistics.Windows.Helpers. Do u have another solution so I can use instead?

I would recommend submitting a suggestion for adding a SummaryResult(s)PresenterStyle to the FieldSettings class. For now you could probably bind to the SummaryResult.SourceField's EditAsType and determine the alignment based on the data type.

e.g.

    <local:TypeToHorizontalAlignmentConverter x:Key="typeToHorzAlignment" />

    <Style TargetType="{x:Type igDP:SummaryResultPresenter}">

        <Setter Property="HorizontalAlignment" Value="{Binding

            Path=SummaryResult.SourceField.EditAsTypeResolved,

            RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self},

            Converter={StaticResource typeToHorzAlignment}}" />

With the converter looking something like:

public class TypeToHorizontalAlignmentConverter : IValueConverter

{

    #region IValueConverter Members

    public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter,

        System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)

    {

        Type type = value as Type;

        if (type != null && Infragistics.Windows.Utilities.IsNumericType(type))

            return Infragistics.Windows.Helpers.KnownBoxes.HorizontalAlignmentRightBox;

        return Infragistics.Windows.Helpers.KnownBoxes.HorizontalAlignmentStretchBox;

    }

    public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter,

        System.Globalization.CultureInfo culture)

    {

        return Binding.DoNothing;

    }

    #endregion

}

But... what if I don't want all the summaries right aligned? Only summaries for some specific fields?
