Is there a way to set focus to a Cell in the ActiveRecord by column name its bound to? We have some background validation logic that finds errors in the current record before it's committed. I would like to be able to set the current ActiveCell of the CurrentRecord based on the data column name from our validator. I can iterate through the fields collection and find the field, but I'm not sure what I do with it once I have it to set the focus.
Hello,
So you have the name of the cell and you iterate through the cells of the current record.
Once gotten to the particular cell, you can set it to Active and use StartEditMode command on the XamDataGrid, which will bring the active cell into edit mode, like this:
...
cell.IsActive = true;
xamDataGrid.ExecuteCommand(DataPresenterCommands.StartEditMode);
Thanks, Alex, that works. I was trying to set IsSelected, not IsActive.
