Animating grid cells

[Alfredo]

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a way to animate a cell in a sfDataGrid.  For example, if I can animate a grid cell flipping over to display another value when it's long-pressed?

I saw that the Syncfusion.SfDataGrid.XForms namespace has a GridCell class which derives from Xamarin.Forms.View.  If I can get access to the GridCell object at a particular location (row/column), I may be able to animate it.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Alfredo

Hi Alfredo,

We can get GridCell object on GridLongPressed event. Please refer to the below code snippet.

Code snippet,

 

…………..
this.dataGrid.GridLongPressed += DataGrid_GridLongPressed;
………………
private void DataGrid_GridLongPressed(object sender, GridLongPressedEventArgs e) 

{ 

            var dataRow = this.dataGrid.GetRowGenerator().Items[e.RowColumnIndex.RowIndex]; 

            var WholeRowElement=  dataRow.GetType().GetRuntimeFields().FirstOrDefault(x => x.Name.Equals("WholeRowElement")).GetValue(dataRow); 

            GridCell gridCell =(GridCell)(WholeRowElement as VirtualizingCellsControl).Children[e.RowColumnIndex.ColumnIndex]; 

 }
