Spell checking in grid text box

John posted over 16 years ago

I want to have spell checking (the red underlines) enabled for textboxes in my XamDataGrid. I'm building the styles manually in C#, like this:

Style ret = new Style(typeof(TextBox));

ret.Setters.Add(new Setter(TextBox.AcceptsReturnProperty, true));

newstyle.Resources.Add(typeof(TextBox), ret);

Then applying that style to the Field.Settings.EditorStyle

But SpellCheck is an attached property, so how can I do it?

Thanks

Ok I can almost get this working using an event handler:

newstyle.Setters.Add(new EventSetter(XamTextEditor.EditModeStartedEvent, new EventHandler<EditModeStartedEventArgs>(SpellCheckEditStart)));

And then..
private static void SpellCheckEditStart(object sender, EditModeStartedEventArgs e)
{
TextBox b = (TextBox)VisualTreeWalker.FindFirst(typeof(TextBox), (System.Windows.Media.Visual)e.Source);b.SpellCheck.IsEnabled = true;
}

This appears to work BUT comes up with erronious spelling mistakes! Almost as if it isn't word-breaking correctly (ie 'work' is a spelling error. Right click and select 'work' as a correction, and it shows 'workk', 2 k's).

Any ideas? Vol 2 hoxfix 1007

Try this:

Create a cutom Field which his editor is XamMasketTexbox.
then assume that f is an object of typeField and configure it:
                    f.DataType = typeof(string);
                    f.Settings.EditAsType = typeof(string);
                    f.Settings.EditorType = typeof(XamMaskedEditor);

                    Style s = new Style(typeof(XamMaskedEditor));
                    //Setter setterMask = new Setter(XamMaskedEditor.MaskProperty, mask);
                    Setter setterMask = new Setter(XamMaskedEditor.MaskProperty, "{char:10:0-9a-zA-Z)");
                    s.Setters.Add(setterMask);
                    f.Settings.EditorStyle = s;
