I have following custom Datagrid
:
<ZF:ZFDataGrid
x:Name="dgvGrid"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Top"
HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch"
VerticalContentAlignment="Stretch"
CanUserAddRows="True"
CanUserDeleteRows="False"
CanUserResizeRows="False"
CanUserReorderColumns="False"
CanUserSortColumns="False"
IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem="True"
SelectionUnit="Cell"
SelectionMode="Single"
ItemsSource="{Binding POSModel}">
<ZF:DataGridNumericColumn
Header="Qty"
Width="80"
AllowDecimalSign="{Binding Path=IsUseDecimal}"/>
</ZF:ZFDataGrid>
I have used MVVM Pattern.
IsUseDecimal
is a boolean
property.
And, I created DependencyProperty
name AllowDecimalSign
. If I change the value of IsUseDecimal
, then I want AllowDecimalSign
to become that value too. But, it's not working.
public class DataGridNumericColumn : DataGridTextColumn
{
private static readonly Regex NonnumericChars = new Regex(@"\D");
private static readonly Regex NonnumericCharsExceptFirstMinus =
new Regex(@"(?<!^[^-]*)-|[^\d-]");
public static readonly DependencyProperty AllowDecimalSignProperty =
DependencyProperty.Register(
"AllowDecimalSign",
typeof(bool),
typeof(DataGridNumericColumn),
new PropertyMetadata(false, new PropertyChangedCallback(ValueChangedCallBack)));
public static void ValueChangedCallBack(DependencyObject property, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs args)
{
}
public bool AllowDecimalSign
{
get { return (bool)GetValue(AllowDecimalSignProperty); }
set { SetValue(AllowDecimalSignProperty, value); }
}
protected override object PrepareCellForEdit(FrameworkElement editingElement, RoutedEventArgs editingEventArgs)
{
var textBox = (TextBox) editingElement;
textBox.PreviewTextInput += OnPreviewTextInput;
textBox.PreviewLostKeyboardFocus += OnPreviewLostKeyboardFocus;
DataObject.AddPastingHandler(textBox, this.OnPaste);
return base.PrepareCellForEdit(editingElement, editingEventArgs);
}
private void OnPreviewTextInput(object sender, TextCompositionEventArgs e)
{
var textBox = (TextBox)sender;
///WHY this.AllowDecimalSign always False ???
if (this.AllowDecimalSign && e.Text == "." && textBox.Text.Contains("."))
e.Handled = true;
if (this.AllowDecimalSign && e.Text == ".")
return;
if (!this.IsNumeric(e.Text))
e.Handled = true;
}
private void OnPreviewLostKeyboardFocus(object sender, KeyboardFocusChangedEventArgs e)
{
var textBox = (TextBox) sender;
textBox.Text = this.ExtractNumericParts(textBox.Text);
}
private void OnPaste(object sender, DataObjectPastingEventArgs e)
{
if(!e.SourceDataObject.GetDataPresent(DataFormats.Text, true))
return;
var textBox = (TextBox)sender;
var preSelection = textBox.Text.Substring(0, textBox.SelectionStart);
var postSelection = textBox.Text.Substring(textBox.SelectionStart
+ textBox.SelectionLength);
var pastedText = (string)e.SourceDataObject.GetData(DataFormats.Text);
if (!this.IsNumeric(preSelection + pastedText + postSelection))
e.CancelCommand();
}
private bool IsNumeric(string text)
{
var result = false;
if(AllowDecimalSign)
{
decimal number;
result = decimal.TryParse(text, out number);
if (!this.AllowNegativeValues)
return result && number >= 0;
}
else
{
int number;
result = Int32.TryParse(text, out number);
if (!this.AllowNegativeValues)
return result && number >= 0;
}
return result;
}
private string ExtractNumericParts(string text)
{
if (this.IsNumeric(text))
return text;
text = this.RemoveIllegalChars(text);
return this.TrimDigitsToInt32Range(text);
}
private string RemoveIllegalChars(string text)
{
var illegalChars = this.AllowNegativeValues
? NonnumericCharsExceptFirstMinus
: NonnumericChars;
return illegalChars.Replace(text, string.Empty);
}
private string TrimDigitsToInt32Range(string numericText)
{
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(numericText))
return "0";
return this.IsNumeric(numericText)
? numericText
: this.TrimDigitsToInt32Range(
numericText.Remove(numericText.Length - 1));
}
}
The value of AllowDecimalSign
is always false
and doesn't reflect the value of IsUseDecimal
, even when I also used this code:
AllowDecimalSign="{Binding Path=IsUseDecimal, Mode=TwoWay, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}">
Bindings don't work with DataGridColumns of any kind, I'm afraid. They don't have a DataContext, and they're not part of the visual tree.
For Bindings in columns to work, you'll have to resort to proxy items for setting the DataContext, or other similar workarounds.
I explained the proxy item approach here, for the
VisualBrush
class in that case, but it should work the same forDataGridColumn
.I'm assuming
IsUseDecimal
is a property in your ViewModel (or whatever DataContext the DataGrid has).Proxy element:
And add it to Resources and use it in your Column:
