Make cell read only
posted

Hi guys!

How can I make a single cell read only, preferably by using data binding, but doing it "manually" in code is also ok.
I do not want the entire column to be read only, I just need some of the cells in the column to be read only.

What I'm trying to do, is bind a collection of objects to a grid (which works just fine), and the objects has properties which can be used to determine if some property should be read only or not...

-Thanks!

    Found one solution myself, although I think it's not as elegant as I would like, but it works;

    By subscribing to the CellActivating event for the XamDataGrid, I can cancel the activation making the cell read only.

    this.xamDataGrid_factDefinition.CellActivating += new EventHandler<CellActivatingEventArgs>(xamDataGrid_factDefinition_CellActivating);

    ...

    void xamDataGrid_factDefinition_CellActivating(object sender, CellActivatingEventArgs e)
    {
         if (e.Cell.Field.Name == "Standard")
         {     
             FactDefinitionUIWrapperEntity     wrapperEntity = e.Cell.Record.DataItem as FactDefinitionUIWrapperEntity;
                 if (wrapperEntity != null)
             {
                   e.Cancel = !wrapperEntity.IsStandardEditable;
             }
         }
             else if (e.Cell.Field.Name == "Mandatory")
         {
                  FactDefinitionUIWrapperEntity wrapperEntity = e.Cell.Record.DataItem as FactDefinitionUIWrapperEntity;
                  if (wrapperEntity != null)
                  {
                    e.Cancel = !wrapperEntity.IsMandatoryEditable;
              }
         }
    }
