Editing decimal columns as integer
posted

Hi there

 

I have UltraWinGrid with a bound column of type decimal.

We wish to treat the column as an integer with no spin.

If I set the format of the column to be say "###,###,##0" the format is OK

but if I set the InputMask of the column to say "nnn,nnn,nnn" it by default seems to apply the spin functionality to the columns cells and if I apply the format only with no mask then the first cell I click in displays the value to 4 decimal places.

If instead of using the format and inputmask I use the ColumnStyle = Integer then the column becomes non-editable!

My question is what is the appropriate technique for having both the display and edit mask of a decimal to be that of an Integer.

 

Thanks in advance

    Hi Geoff,

    Try something like this: 


            private void ultraGrid1_InitializeLayout(object sender, Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.InitializeLayoutEventArgs e)
            {
                UltraGridLayout layout = e.Layout;
                UltraGridBand band = layout.Bands[0];

                UltraGridColumn decimalColumn = band.Columns["decimal 1"];
                decimalColumn.Header.VisiblePosition = 1;
                decimalColumn.Format = "###,###,##0";
                decimalColumn.MaskInput = "nnn,nnn,nnn";
                EditorWithMask editorWithMask = decimalColumn.Editor as EditorWithMask;
                editorWithMask.SpinButtonDisplayStyle = SpinButtonDisplayStyle.None;
            }

     

    Note that the grid re-uses the editors that it creates. So in this case, the EditorWithMask I am getting here will apply to ALL columns in the grid that are using masks. If that's not what you want, you will need to create a new editor, set it's SpinButtonDisplayStyle, and assign it to the column, instead of getting the one that is already there.
