Our application uses a xamGrid that is bound to an ObservableCollection. As new objects are added to the collection they automatically show up in the grid -- wonderful. The problem I'm having is that the newly added objects are always being appended to the end of the grid, even when the grid is sorted. So, if I have a grid with two columns, first name and last name, and I'm sorted by last name I might see something like this:
Jane Apple
Joe Brown
Ashley Denver
Then, when Charlie Cooley is added to the ObservableCollection, the grid will look like:
Charlie Cooley
But since I'm sorted by last name, I need Charlie to be added between Joe Brown and Ashley Denver. Make sense? Any suggestions on how best to accomplish this? I'm hoping there's just a property on grid somewhere that I'm missing.
Thanks,
Mike.
Hello Mike,
Thank you for your post. I have been looking through it and I suggest you add the following code:
xamDataGrid1.Records.RefreshSort();
after you add new items to the ObservableCollection. Calling this method guarantees you that every time you add new item to the ObservableCollection the XamDataGrid refreshes and you will have the desired result.
