Can I have a sample for the datagrid search form ?

[Silvio]

Hi, 

I'm very interested to the Search form for the SfDatagrid that I see on the online demos (see attached image).

But I don't find the code example on my own installation.

Is there a link where I can download the code example ?

Thank you in advance.

Hi Silvio,

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion Support.

We have provided this “search” support from our Essential Studio Volume 4, 2015 (Version 13.4.0.53). So we recommend you to use our latest version 13.4.0.53 to use this “search” support and is available for download under the following link.

I've tried the search control and it works.

However I had to make 2 changes on your code not to have crashes on my own example.

First of all: 

       static SearchControl()

        {

          DefaultStyleKeyProperty.OverrideMetadata(typeof(SearchControl), new FrameworkPropertyMetadata(typeof(SearchControl)));

        }

        public SearchControl()

        {

        }

I have inserted the static constructor and the OverrideMetadata is called inside it. Otherwise, the second time you create the same control you'd have a crash.

Secondly, I had to make this change:

        private void OnComboBoxSelectionChanged(object sender, System.Windows.Controls.SelectionChangedEventArgs e)

        {

          if (e.RemovedItems.Count == 0 || e.AddedItems.Count == 0)

            return;

            var oldItem = e.RemovedItems[0];

            var newItem = e.AddedItems[0];

            if (oldItem == null || newItem == null)

                return;

            var oldGrid = this.GetDataGrid(oldItem.ToString());

            var newGrid = this.GetDataGrid(newItem.ToString());

            oldGrid.SearchHelper.ClearSearch();

            newGrid.SearchHelper.AllowFiltering = (bool)this.ApplyFilterCheckBox.IsChecked;

            newGrid.SearchHelper.Search(SearchTextBox.Text);

        }

Without the inserted red lines I had cases (closing the form) where e.AddedItems was empty and an IndexOfRangeException was thrown.

Now I have a question for you. This control seems to search for only Text cells. But what about searching also for combo-box value cells? Should it be possible ?

Have a nice day !

Hi Silvio,

ComboBox column loads content presenter to provide support for template. You can enable search in combobox column by loading TextBlock by writing custom renderer. We have prepared and attached the sample for the ComboBox column Search for your Reference. Find the sample from below location.

Please let us know if you need further assistance.

Thank you for your assistance.

It works with GridComboBoxColumn.

Is there a similar example also with GridMultiColumnDropDownList ?

Thank you in advance.
