SfDataGrid Printing Header Template with Costum Elements

[Amine Laïeb]

Greetings,

     I have a Grid that contains a SfDataGrid and a ComboBox, I'm trying to Print the SfDataGrid and in the Header the SelectedItem of the ComboBox knowing that it is bound to a database (the items of the ComboBox change constantly), How can it Print the both in the same Page ?

Hi Amine, 

You can achieve your requirement for printing the both SfDataGrid and ComboBox in same page and the ComboBox SelectedITem as the header of SfDataGrid by using the PrintPageHeaderTemplate. The header text can be shown by using visual brush and text block. 

Using Visualbrush: 

private void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) 

{ 

 

    VisualBrush visualbrush = new VisualBrush(); 

    visualbrush.Visual = stackpanel; 

             

    FrameworkElementFactory grid = new FrameworkElementFactory(typeof(Grid)); 

    FrameworkElementFactory borderelement = new FrameworkElementFactory(typeof(Border)); 

    borderelement.SetValue(Border.BackgroundProperty, visualbrush); 

    borderelement.SetValue(Border.HeightProperty, 75.0); 

    borderelement.SetValue(Border.WidthProperty, 1020.0); 

    borderelement.SetValue(Border.HorizontalAlignmentProperty, HorizontalAlignment.Stretch); 

    borderelement.SetValue(Border.VerticalAlignmentProperty, VerticalAlignment.Stretch); 

 

    grid.AppendChild(borderelement); 

 

 

    datatemplate.VisualTree = grid; 

 

    this.datagrid.PrintSettings.AllowRepeatHeaders = false; 

    datagrid.PrintSettings.PrintPageHeaderTemplate = datatemplate; 

    datagrid.PrintSettings.PrintPageHeaderHeight = 55; 

 

    this.datagrid.ShowPrintPreview(); 

}

using TextBlock: 

private void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) 

{ 

    DataTemplate datatemplate = new DataTemplate(); 

             

    TextBlock textblock = new TextBlock(); 

    textblock.Text = combobox.SelectedItem.ToString(); 

 

    FrameworkElementFactory grid = new FrameworkElementFactory(typeof(Grid)); 

            

    FrameworkElementFactory textblockfactory = new FrameworkElementFactory(typeof(TextBlock)); 

 

 

    textblockfactory.SetValue(TextBlock.TextProperty, textblock.Text); 

    textblockfactory.SetValue(TextBlock.BackgroundProperty, Brushes.Gray); 

    grid.AppendChild(textblockfactory); 

 

    datatemplate.VisualTree = grid; 

 

 

    this.datagrid.PrintSettings.AllowRepeatHeaders = false; 

    datagrid.PrintSettings.PrintPageHeaderTemplate = datatemplate; 

    datagrid.PrintSettings.PrintPageHeaderHeight = 25; 

 

    this.datagrid.ShowPrintPreview(); 

}
