According to the online documentaion there is a Converter property on a Field in a XamDataGrid.
http://help.infragistics.com/Help/NetAdvantage/WPF/2007.2/CLR3.X/html/Infragistics3.Wpf.DataPresenter.v7.2~Infragistics.Windows.DataPresenter.Field~Converter.html
This property does not appear in the xaml when I attempt to use it. Am I doing something wrong? What I am trying to do is create a Y/N to True False so it can be used by a checkbox in my datagrid. I saw a couple examples that provided a new template with a checkbox inside it but I really dont want to use that approach unless I am forced too. Here is what I have so far. I just need a way to convert my 'Y' or 'N' value to check or uncheck the box.
Thanks
That's awesome. It's just plain old missing.
I got confused about "trial" versus "express". I thought you were using the express.
Gee, I don't know what that could be. I hate to sound predictable, but have you tried uninstalling/reinstalling?
You could also install the express version (they seem to be able to live together in harmony) and see if THAT has it. If it does, maybe you could prove the product with THAT and then upgrade to the full later. Maybe something's screwy with the trial version? I forget how the install works ... if the trial is the same as the full, without a key, or if it's a seperate build...
You can't see from my screenshot but I am not using the Express version. I am getting this from the Infragistics3.WPF.DataPresenter.v7.2 assembly. As you can see Converter is still not there. It looks pretty similar other than that.
I never tried uploading a screenshot. Cool.
Try this in the object browser. I'd like to see how "close" we are ... is it just this one property missing? Or is something bigger going on here?
Attached is a screenshot from my end, browsing into the Express dll, which is what you have.
I browsed into the libray by using "Go To Definition". The resulting screenshot is attached. I also looked at the assembly through Reflector and that property did not exist.
I'm glad to know this will be easy to do if I can get the correct version of the dll's. I attempted to download the latest hotfix but apparently that is only available to paying subscribers. Since we are still in "evaluation" mode that is not an option right now.
Thanks for your help on this.
Hmmm... that is strange. I know for a fact that the trial version supports this because I used it before upgrading to the full version. I'm not sure what to tell you.
Maybe you could try browsing into the library from vs. If I drill down into Infragistics3.WPF.DataPresenter.v7.2 and then Infragistics.Windows.DataPresenter and then click on the Field class, on the right I see the properties and methods for the Field.
What do you see in that list? There's no Converter?
I think your top level namespace will be a little different because of the trial.
