How to force a row into edit mode?
posted

I am making a user control (view) that mimics windows explorer in detail view.

I use a TreeView control for the tree navigation (on the left) and a XamDataGrid for the details view of files (on the right).

When adding files or folders I would like the row to immediatley enter edit mode. E.g. when adding a folder in windows explorer, the folder is created and the curser flashes in the Name column waiting for the user to rename the New Folder to something useful. How do I do that in the XamDataGrid - Force the XamDataGrid to enter edit mode on the new row?

Thanks in advance for your help!

    Infragistics support has come back to me saying I should use the StartEditMode Command. Problem is I am using the MVVM model. How would I invoke this command and the command on my viewmodel when adding a new item to the datasource? There doesn't appear to be an editmode property on the grid.  

    Support example: this.XamDataGrid1.ExecuteCommand(DataPresenterCommands.StartEditMode);  

    My context menu on my XamDataGrid.


    <igDP:XamDataGrid.ContextMenu>
	<!-- Grid Context Menu -->
	<ContextMenu>
		<MenuItem Command="{Binding AddNewCommand}" CommandParameter="Document" Header="New Document" />
		<MenuItem Command="{Binding AddNewCommand}" CommandParameter="Folder" Header="New Folder" />
	</ContextMenu>
</igDP:XamDataGrid.ContextMenu>
