How to use image path as an image source in GridImageColumn?

GridImageColumn helps you bind the types that are supported by Image.Source,
such as BitMapImage. When you bind a format other than the supported format, such as name of the image or file path of the image, GridImageColumn does not load the images. In such cases, you can use converter in ValueBinding for GridImageColumn that converts the string path to support Image source format. The following code example illustrates how to bind the image name or file path to GridImageColumn with the help of ValueBinding along with Converter to convert image name to BitMapImage.

XAML

SfDataGrid bounded to collection of OrderInfo and OrderInfo class have a property ImageLink that contains the image names on the Project.

Following is the converter that converts image name (placed in the Project) into BitMapImage.

C#

In WinRT and UWP you can give file path directly in StringToImageConveter. Convert method code example for WinRT and UWP platform is as follows.

public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, string language)

        {

            if (value != null)

            {

                string imagename = value as string;

                 return new Uri(string.Format(@"..\..\Image\{0}" ,

                  imagename), UriKind.Relative));

                       }

            return null;

        }

The following is the screenshot for image column that loads images in GridImage Column.
