Hide Column binding bool from View Model

[Juan Carlos Gonzalez Salazar]

Hello,

I have a problem with the DataGrid, currently I tried to hide an specific column with this

<syncfusion:GridTemplateColumn IsHidden="{Binding Path=BindingContext.HideID, Source={x:Reference rootView}}" MappingName="DesgloseID">

But the column is still visible, I already tried change it to

<syncfusion:GridTemplateColumn IsHidden="{Binding HideID}" MappingName="DesgloseID">

and

<syncfusion:GridTemplateColumn IsHidden="{Binding Path=HideID}" MappingName="DesgloseID">

HideID is a public bool property in my ViewModel with PropertyChanged

<syncfusion:SfDataGrid x:Name="dataGrid"

Hello Sivaraman,

Is there an alternative? Because I can't create an instance of the ViewModel like that.

Hi Juan, 

 

We have checked your query. If you are unable to create a instance in Xaml page, you can create the instance of ViewModel in code behind. We have prepared the sample based on your requirement and attached for your reference you can download the same from the below link. 

 

Sample Link: http://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/forum/135808/ze/HIDDEN~1-474308427 

 

 

// Code Behind 

ViewModel viewModel; 

public MainPage() 

{ 

    InitializeComponent(); 

    viewModel = new ViewModel(); 

    this.BindingContext = viewModel; 

    dataGrid.Columns[0].SetBinding(GridColumn.IsHiddenProperty, new Binding() { Path= "IsHide", Source = viewModel }); 

}
