Hey, I am trying the infragistics WPF tool.
I even don't know if this is possible, but I will give it a try.
I have two simple classes:
User with properties Id int Name string UserName string Groups List<Group>
Group with properties Id int Name string
So far I have used the XamGrid to show a list of users, and the result is like this:
But what I want is to display it like this:
Is it even possible ??
Hello Nawed,
Thank you for your post. I have been looking into I, but I am not completely sure that I understood your requirement. Could you please be more specific what is the functionality you want to achieve, because the vertical textblocks in the second screenshot don’t correspond to any of the items in the first one and I cannot be sure what they represent.
Looking forward for your reply.
Hey Stefan,
Tnx for your reply,
The second screenshot is from Excel, that's why it looks like that. In the end it doesn't have to be vertical.
The functionality I want to achieve is, that I have a class user, with the attributes ID, NAME, USERNAME and Groups. Groups is of type List<Group>.Now I want to list the GROUPS as attributes in the XamGrid. Name attribute in group should be header, and then there can be a x, or just a checkbox to indicate if the user have the specified group.
I have created a sample project for you with the functionality you want. Basically I changed the data structure in order to achieve this functionality. I added a bool Property to the Group class, which determines whether the group belongs to the user or not and every user has a group collection containing all available groups. I also defined all the groups as UnboundColumns in the XamGrid and added CheckBoxes in the Templates, bound to the bool property of every group. Please let me know if this helps you or you need further assistance on this matter.
Tnx for the reply.
Making it that way is pretty simple.But the case is that, groups and user are from a database. And I never know which group belongs to which user, and I actually don't know which groups we have. The groups can be created and deleted from database. So hardcoding it is not the solution.
I can say that you can add the UnboundColumns dynamically, not just by using XAML. Also I can say that each Row should have the same amout of Columns. If you want different Columns for different Rows, you can suggest new product ideas for future versions (or vote for existing ones) at <http://ideas.infragistics.com>.
