Selected items in master - detail datagrid

Hi,
 
I am trying to make a master - details datagrid, in which I monitor the selected rows in the details grid. By the way, I'm using SfDataGrid elements.
 
I can successfully track current selection in the master grid, by using the event
 

SfDataGrid.SelectionChanged

 
in the event handler, I check the content of the properties
 
 

SfDataGrid.SelectedItems

 

SfDataGrid.SelectionController.SelectedRows

 
 
Now, I tried to do the same with the details grid. I subscribed to SelectionChanged event. The event is fired, but the two properties listed above, always have empty content.
 
In SyncFusion online documentation, I found this information:
 
There are some limitations in Master-Details View.
...
- It does not have support to bind SelectedItem, CurrentItem.
...
 
Here it says that it is not possible to do a binding; but is it possible to deal with selected items in some way, also programmatically (in C# code)?
 
Thanks,
Emanuele

Getting SelectedItem in master details view by using SelectionChanged event.

You can achieve your requirement by using SelectionChanged event of details grid.

Please refer the code snippet and sample in the following location:

Code Snippet:

void FirstDetailsViewGrid_SelectionChanged(object sender, Syncfusion.UI.Xaml.Grid.GridSelectionChangedEventArgs e)

{

    var grid = (e.OriginalSender as DetailsViewDataGrid);

    var selectedrows = grid.SelectionController.SelectedRows;

    var selecteditems = grid.SelectedItems;

}

There are some limitations in Master-Details View.

In details view grid you can’t able to bind the SelectedItem and CurrentItem. But, you can achieve this by using Behaviour and Dependency Property.

Please refer the code snippet and sample in the following location:

Code Snippet:

<local:SelectionBehaviour FirstDetailsViewSelectedItem="{Binding SelectedFirstNestedGridOrderDetails, Mode=TwoWay}"

                            FirstNestedSelectedItems="{Binding FirstNestedGridSelectedItems , Mode=TwoWay}"

                            FirstNestedCurrentItem="{Binding FirstNestedCurrentDetails,Mode=TwoWay}"/>
