TimeSpan and Object values in XamPivotGrid
posted

Hi,

I have two questions about XamPivotGrid:

1) How can I display TimeSpan values, defined in a custom FlatDataSource? I created a class PivotData with a value property of TimeSpan type. Then I fill a List<PivotData> with values, and create a FlatDataSource.
This leaves the PivotGrid values empty (Something like "Drop Data Items here" shows up).

2) Another thing that is somewhat related to this, is that I sometimes need int values, and sometimes need TimeSpan values. I tried to make the PivotData.Value property an "object", but the PivotGrid doesn't work with this either. I can imagine this could be done with a ValueConverter, but I don't really see how I can do this since the binding is on the FlatDataSource object.
Also, this would still not work if the TimeSpan values do not display properly.

PivotData and FlatDataSource:

 

public

 

 

class PivotData
{
   public string Row { get; set; }
   public string Column { get; set; }
   public TimeSpan Value { get; set; }
}


FlatDataSource = new FlatDataSource
{
   ItemsSource = pivotData,
   Cube =
DataSourceBase.GenerateInitialCube("PivotData"),
   Rows =
DataSourceBase.GenerateInitialItems("[Row]"),
   Columns =
DataSourceBase.GenerateInitialItems("[Column]"),
   Measures =
DataSourceBase.GenerateInitialItems("Value")
};
