My problem/situation is very similar to Wpf DataGrid SelectedItem loses binding after cell edit but I'm not using any "custom" WPF framework. I have a model that implements INotifyPropertyChanged
and IEditableObject
, and a grid bound to an ObservableCollection<T>
. The grid's SelectedItem
property is bound to a property on the VM.
With a break point, I can see my ViewModel.SelectedItem
property change as I select different rows in the grid. The moment I change a value on a row, however, the ViewModel.SelectedItem
property is no longer set as I change focus on the rows. The solution identified in the above link does not work since I'm not using a custom WPF framework, just naked WPF.
Any ideas?
// View model area
public IPurchaseorderItem SelectedItem
{
get
{
return _selectedItem;
}
set
{
if (_selectedItem != value)
{
_selectedItem = value;
SelectItemCommand.NotifyCanExecuteChanged();
RemoveItemCommand.NotifyCanExecuteChanged();
}
}
}
// XAML SelectedItem binding
<views:NoBindingGroupDataGrid SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedItem, Mode=TwoWay, UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}"
// Special Grid to clear binding groups (read on a similarly themed SO question/answer)
internal sealed class NoBindingGroupDataGrid : DataGrid
{
private bool _editing = false;
protected override System.Windows.Size MeasureOverride(System.Windows.Size availableSize)
{
var desiredSize = base.MeasureOverride(availableSize);
ClearBindingGroup();
return desiredSize;
}
protected override void OnCellEditEnding(DataGridCellEditEndingEventArgs e)
{
base.OnCellEditEnding(e);
if (!_editing)
{
_editing = true;
CommitEdit(DataGridEditingUnit.Row, true);
_editing = false;
}
}
private void ClearBindingGroup()
{
ItemBindingGroup = null;
foreach (var item in Items)
{
var row = ItemContainerGenerator.ContainerFromItem(item) as FrameworkElement;
if (row != null)
{
row.BindingGroup = null;
}
}
}
}
