How to Grid EditDialog Template with Enum DropDown?

[Sergio Ramos]

Dear Syncfusion Team

I try to create a custom edit dialog for the data grid that has a dropdown for enum values. But sadly based on the documentation of enum data binding for the dropdown list I'm not able to make it work and receiving the error below. https://blazor.syncfusion.com/documentation/dropdown-list/data-source/#enum-data-binding

How has the code to look like when i want to have a edit dialog within the data grid that has his data source based on a list of enum?

Btw. I'm using the latest blazor nuget package release.

Thanks in advance

    public enum RoomType

    {

        SINGLE = 1,

        DOUBLE = 2

    }

Hi Sergio, 

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support. 

We have prepared a sample to perform dialog template editing with Dropdown enum values. We are attaching the sample for your convenience, please download the sample from the link below, 

Sample : https://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/directtrac/general/ze/EnumDrop-108016961 

Documentations : https://blazor.syncfusion.com/documentation/datagrid/events/#onactionbegin 

And also to update the value selected from dropdown to Grid, we suggest you to bind the OnActionBegin event handler of Grid and update the “Status” field value in that event handler to get the selected value from dropdown to get updated in Grid. Please refer the code below, 

 

    <GridEvents OnActionBegin="OnActionBegin" TValue="WeatherForecast"></GridEvents> 

 

    public void OnActionBegin(ActionEventArgs<WeatherForecast> Args) 

    { 

        if (Args.RequestType == Syncfusion.Blazor.Grids.Action.Save) 

        { 

            Args.Data.Status = (WeatherForecastState)Enum.Parse(typeof(WeatherForecastState), DropDownList.Value); 

        } 

    }
