Refreshing FieldLayouts during runtime when a style changes
posted

Guys,

My xamDataGrids have been configured to display DateTime using the following style:

  <Style x:Key="timeFormatter" TargetType="{x:Type igEd:XamDateTimeEditor}" >
        <Setter Property="Format" Value="MMM dd yyyy HH:mm:ss " />
    </Style>

My users want to be able to change the DateTime format while the application is running.  What I plan on doing is programmatically update the style but I need to be able to tell xamDataGrid to regenerate field layouts based on current settings. 

To do this, I plan on saving the field layouts, clearing them and reloading them all during runtime.  Does anyone has a better way to do this?

TIA,

Klaus

    Hello Klaus,

     

    I have been looking into your and I can suggest setting the FieldSettinsgs’ EditorStyle property from code, which will automatically rerender all your affected controls. You can chose to address such a setting through a few different scopes – for the whole XamDataGrid, for a specific FieldLayout or for a specific Field.

     

    Please let me know if you require any further assistance on the matter.
