Manipulating the silverlight datagrid from code behind?

[Pankaj]

Hi
I am building a usercontrol which will contain Syncfusion silverlight datagrid. And I want to control visibility of columns from code behind. Are there any links to such samples?

In fact, I would like to know how to control other controls from code behind.

Thanks
AJ

Hi Pankaj,

Thanks for using Syncfusion products.

To control the VisibleColumns in code behind, set the AutoPopulateColumns="False" in the xaml.

In the code behind file use the following code to make the columns to be visible.

this.dataGrid.VisibleColumns.Add(new Syncfusion.Windows.Controls.Grid.GridDataVisibleColumn() { MappingName="OrderID",HeaderText="OrderID"});

I have attached a sample in the below location.

Please let me know if you have any queries.

Thanks,

Thanks. but how to hide a column even though it is part of grid columns?

Also, how can we enable the click handler of a cell in grid?

Thanks

Hi Pankaj,

You can set the width of the column to 0 and it will not be shown in the grid. Please refer the below code snippet.







You can handle the cell click event. Please look into the below code snippet.

this.dataGrid.Model.Grid.CellClick += new GridCellClickEventHandler(Grid_CellClick);

Please let me know if you have any queries.

Thanks,
Varun
