Binding EditingSettings AllowEditing to The View Model
posted

I want to activate/deactivate editing on a XamGrid from the menu, usually, to toggle a Xaml property using the view model (DataContext) I use Binding and a Converter. I've tried the following code:

<ig:XamGrid.EditingSettings>
  <ig:EditingSettings
      AllowEditing="{Binding Path=IsInEditMode, Converter={StaticResource boolToEditingTypeConverter}, Mode=OneWay}"
      IsMouseActionEditingEnabled="DoubleClick"
      IsEnterKeyEditingEnabled="True"
      IsF2EditingEnabled="True"
      IsOnCellActiveEditingEnabled="False" />
</ig:XamGrid.EditingSettings>

Where IsInEditMode is a property on my Viewmodel specifically a DependencyProperty.

The Converter is never called so I presume the binding path is not found. Maybe because the object path is not connected to the model but something else...

Can you tell me where I'm wrong?

thank you
