How to move selection to newly added records in UWP DataGrid?

1 min read

The selection can be moved to a newly added record by changing the SelectedItem in RowValidated event when AddNewRow gets validated in UWP DataGrid.

C#

sfdatagrid.RowValidated+=sfdatagrid_RowValidated;
 
void sfdatagrid_RowValidated(object sender, RowValidatedEventArgs args)
{
  if(sfdatagrid.IsAddNewIndex(args.RowIndex))
    {
        sfdatagrid.Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(new Action(() =>
        {
            sfdatagrid.SelectedItem = args.RowData;
            sfdatagrid.ScrollInView(sfdatagrid.SelectionController.CurrentCellManager.CurrentRowColumnIndex);
        }));
    }
}

 

For UWP, you have to set the SelectedItem using RunAsync.

Sample:
