I have a gridview, which presents all of the users I have in my database, and their details, I want to be able, on the click of a user(on the gridview), that it's details will appear separately on the side of the grid view, and there I could change them accordingly. However, I'm not sure how to do so. I have the ItemClick event in my gridview, and It does recognize if I click on an item, but I don't know how to get that specific clicked user's details, for me to present them on the side. I also have another problem- for some reason It doesn't recognize nor let me click on any of the top row items on the grid view-only the ones below it, does anyone know why?
this is my XAML :

I will be so thankful for any help, it's really important for me!
but I don't know how to get that specific clicked user's details, for me to present them on the side.
There are many ways to get the item in item click event. if you have used MVVM pattern, the recommend way is binding command. For more you could refer this case.
In general, you could subscribe ItemClick event and get ClickedItem from event ItemClickEventArgs
Example
private void VideoGridView_ItemClick(object sender, ItemClickEventArgs e)
{
var vedio = e.ClickedItem as VideoItem;
var item = new MediaPlaybackItem(MediaSource.CreateFromUri(new Uri(vedio.videoUri)));
mediaPlayerElement.Source = item;
}
I also have another problem- for some reason It doesn't recognize nor let me click on any of the top row items on the grid view-only the ones below it, does anyone know why?
I could not reproduce this issue, please check if there is some element cover the top row up cause the grid view could not be clicked.
This is how I'm currently populating a combo box. Is there any way to be able to use a list like this, but also add a little color preview box to the left of the item?
private void PantsColor_ComboBox_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
List<string> data = new List<string>();
data.Add("Blue");
data.Add("Red");
data.Add("Green");
data.Add("Orange");
data.Add("Pink");
data.Add("Purple");
var pantsColorComboBox = sender as ComboBox;
pantsColorComboBox.ItemsSource = data;
pantsColorComboBox.SelectedIndex = 0;
}
A color preview box to the left of the item can be added in ComboBox.ItemTemplate:
private void ColorComboBoxLoaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
var cbo = sender as ComboBox;
if (cbo == null)
return;
cbo.ItemsSource = new List<string> { "Blue", "Red", "Green", "Orange", "Pink", "Purple" };
}
<ComboBox SelectedIndex="0"
Loaded="ColorComboBoxLoaded">
<ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/>
<ColumnDefinition/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Border Background="{Binding}" Height="20" Width="24" Margin="2"/>
<TextBlock Grid.Column="1" Margin="5,0" VerticalAlignment="Center" Text="{Binding}"/>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
</ComboBox>
Result:
note that SelectedIndex can be set in xaml. also note, that even if Background is set with string value, it is still applied properly because there is a built-in converter which creates Brush from color name (or hex ARGB code).
also all items can be set in xaml without any event handlers in code-behind:
<ComboBox SelectedIndex="0">
<ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto"/>
<ColumnDefinition/>
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<Border Background="{Binding}" Height="20" Width="24" Margin="2"/>
<TextBlock Grid.Column="1" Margin="5,0" VerticalAlignment="Center" Text="{Binding}"/>
</Grid>
</DataTemplate>
</ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
<ComboBox.Items>
<system:String>Blue</system:String>
<system:String>Red</system:String>
<system:String>Green</system:String>
<system:String>Orange</system:String>
<system:String>Pink</system:String>
<system:String>Purple</system:String>
</ComboBox.Items>
</ComboBox>
You need to use Datatemplate for Combobox items.
<ComboBox x:Name="pantsColorComboBox" Height="30" Width="200">
<ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
<TextBlock Width="20" Height="20" Background="{Binding Key}"></TextBlock>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Value}"></TextBlock>
</StackPanel>
</DataTemplate>
</ComboBox.ItemTemplate>
</ComboBox>
Your itemsource will be modified to a dictionary.
var data = new Dictionary<SolidColorBrush,string>();
data.Add(Brushes.Blue,"Blue");
data.Add(Brushes.Red,"Red");
data.Add(Brushes.Green, "Green");
data.Add(Brushes.Orange, "Orange");
data.Add(Brushes.Pink, "Pink");
data.Add(Brushes.Purple, "Purple");
var pantsColorComboBox = sender as ComboBox;
pantsColorComboBox.ItemsSource = data;
pantsColorComboBox.SelectedIndex = 0;
I have created a text box which when focused brings up a popup box with other text box's as options.. and when pressed closes the popup box.. but I'd like that to then take the value from whichever text box I have selected and add into the original text box. Is this possible? I'm new to wpf so forgive me!
Here is my code so far.
<Grid>
<StackPanel Margin="0,51,0,-51">
<TextBox x:Name="text" GotKeyboardFocus="text_GotKeyboardFocus" Margin="158,0,169,0" Height="24" Text="Select Your Time..." />
<Popup x:Name="popup" Width="282" Height="300" PlacementTarget="{Binding ElementName=text}">
<Grid>
<StackPanel>
<TextBox x:Name="text2" Background="White" Margin="10" GotKeyboardFocus="text_GotKeyboardFocus2" Cursor="Arrow" Height="24" Text="1 second" />
<TextBox x:Name="text3" Background="White" Margin="10" GotKeyboardFocus="text_GotKeyboardFocus2" Cursor="Arrow" Height="24" Text="2 second" />
<TextBox x:Name="text4" Background="White" Margin="10" GotKeyboardFocus="text_GotKeyboardFocus2" Cursor="Arrow" Height="24" Text="3 second" />
<TextBox x:Name="text5" Background="White" Margin="10" GotKeyboardFocus="text_GotKeyboardFocus2" Cursor="Arrow" Height="24" Text="4 second" />
<TextBox x:Name="text6" Background="White" Margin="10" GotKeyboardFocus="text_GotKeyboardFocus2" Cursor="Arrow" Height="24" Text="5 second" />
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
</Popup>
</StackPanel>
</Grid>
private void text_GotKeyboardFocus(object sender, KeyboardFocusChangedEventArgs e)
{
popup.IsOpen = true;
}
private void text_GotKeyboardFocus2(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
popup.IsOpen = false;
}
Get value from one textbox to another in xaml:
<TextBox Name="txtBox1"/>
<TextBox Name="txtBox2" Text="{Binding ElementName=txtBox1, Path=Text,UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" />
I hope I got your point.
Just add text.Text = (sender as TextBox).Text; to your second event handler as follows :
private void text_GotKeyboardFocus2(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
popup.IsOpen = false;
text.Text = (sender as TextBox).Text;
}
Good luck.
Get value from one textbox to another XAML
<TextBox Name="txtBox1"/>
<TextBox Name="txtBox2" Text="{Binding ElementName=txtBox1, Path=Text,UpdateSourceTrigger=PropertyChanged}" />

The problem i am facing is that when using the mouse to scroll, it works fine when it is over the button but as soon as i move the mouse pointer over the grid and try to scroll, nothing happens. I am able to move the scrollbar of the scrollviewer directly though. I am still a wpf novice so any help on how to get the mouse scroll to work over the datagrid would be appreciated. I am guessing there should be a pretty easy solution for this but I havent been able to figure it out
I think Dave's solution is a good one. However, one recommendation I'd make is to catch the PreviewMouseWheel event on the scrollviewer instead of on the datagrid. If you don't, you might notice some minor differences based on whether you're scrolling over the datagrid or the scroll bar itself. The reasoning is that the scrollviewer will be handling scrolling when the mouse is hovered over the scrollbar, and the datagrid event will handle the scrolling when over the datagrid. For instance, one mouse wheel scroll over the datagrid might bring you farther down your list then it would when over the scroll bar. If you catch it on scrollviewer preview event, all will use the same measurement when scrolling. Also, if you catch it this way, you won't need to name the scrollviewer element, as you won't need a reference to the object since you can just type cast the sender object passed into the scrollviewer PreviewMouseWheel event. Lastly, I'd recommend marking the event handled at the end of the event, unless you need to catch it in an element further down the heirarchy for some reason. Example below:
private void ScrollViewer_PreviewMouseWheel(object sender, MouseWheelEventArgs e)
{
ScrollViewer scv = (ScrollViewer)sender;
scv.ScrollToVerticalOffset(scv.VerticalOffset - e.Delta);
e.Handled = true;
}
I'm assuming the DataGrid does not need to scroll - Set the VerticalScrollBar="None" on the DataGrid.
The DataGrid swallows the mouse scroll event.
What I found is to use the PreviewMouseWheel event to scroll the container that you want to scroll. You will need to name the scrollviewer to change the Vertical offset.
private void DataGrid_PreviewMouseWheel(object sender, MouseWheelEventArgs e)
{
scrollViewer.ScrollToVerticalOffset(scrollViewer.VerticalOffset-e.Delta);
}
An improvement to Don B's solution is to avoid using ScrollToVerticalOffset.
scv.ScrollToVerticalOffset(scv.VerticalOffset - e.Delta);
VerticalOffset - Delta results in a pretty jarring experience. The ScrollViewer puts a lot of thought into making the movement smoother than that. I think it also scales the delta down based on dpi and other factors...
I found it's better to catch and handle the PreviewMouseWheelEvent and send a MouseWheelEvent to the intended ScrollViewer. My version of Don B's solution looks like this.
private void ScrollViewer_PreviewMouseWheel(object sender, MouseWheelEventArgs e)
{
var eventArg = new MouseWheelEventArgs(e.MouseDevice, e.Timestamp, e.Delta);
eventArg.RoutedEvent = UIElement.MouseWheelEvent;
eventArg.Source = e.Source;
ScrollViewer scv = (ScrollViewer)sender;
scv.RaiseEvent(eventArg);
e.Handled = true;
}
To enable touch support you might also want to set ScrollViewer.PanningMode to None on your DataGrid and set the same property to VerticalFirst or other value on your top level ScrollViewer
Example
<ScrollViewer VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" Margin="5" PanningMode="VerticalFirst">
<DataGrid ScrollViewer.PanningMode="None" ItemsSource="{Binding Items}" />
</ScrollViewer>
Of course, also use the PreviewMouseWheel event as indicated by Don B's answers to fix the original mouse scrolling issue.
private static void ScrollViewer_PreviewMouseWheel(object sender, System.Windows.Input.MouseWheelEventArgs e)
{
var scrollViewer = (ScrollViewer)sender;
scrollViewer.ScrollToVerticalOffset(scrollViewer.VerticalOffset - e.Delta);
e.Handled = true;
}
Or, you can simply set the following Attached Property to your ScrollViewer
public class TopMouseScrollPriorityBehavior
{
public static bool GetTopMouseScrollPriority(ScrollViewer obj)
{
return (bool)obj.GetValue(TopMouseScrollPriorityProperty);
}
public static void SetTopMouseScrollPriority(ScrollViewer obj, bool value)
{
obj.SetValue(TopMouseScrollPriorityProperty, value);
}
public static readonly DependencyProperty TopMouseScrollPriorityProperty =
DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached("TopMouseScrollPriority", typeof(bool), typeof(TopMouseScrollPriorityBehavior), new PropertyMetadata(false, OnPropertyChanged));
private static void OnPropertyChanged(DependencyObject d, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
{
var scrollViewer = d as ScrollViewer;
if (scrollViewer == null)
throw new InvalidOperationException($"{nameof(TopMouseScrollPriorityBehavior)}.{nameof(TopMouseScrollPriorityProperty)} can only be applied to controls of type {nameof(ScrollViewer)}");
if (e.NewValue == e.OldValue)
return;
if ((bool)e.NewValue)
scrollViewer.PreviewMouseWheel += ScrollViewer_PreviewMouseWheel;
else
scrollViewer.PreviewMouseWheel -= ScrollViewer_PreviewMouseWheel;
}
private static void ScrollViewer_PreviewMouseWheel(object sender, System.Windows.Input.MouseWheelEventArgs e)
{
var scrollViewer = (ScrollViewer)sender;
scrollViewer.ScrollToVerticalOffset(scrollViewer.VerticalOffset - e.Delta);
e.Handled = true;
}
}
Usage
<ScrollViewer b:TopMouseScrollPriorityBehavior.TopMouseScrollPriority="True" VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" Margin="5" PanningMode="VerticalFirst">
<DataGrid ScrollViewer.PanningMode="None" ItemsSource="{Binding Items}" />
</ScrollViewer>
Where b: is the namespace that contains this behavior
This way your no code-behind is needed and your app is purely MVVM
I tried Don B's solution and it's solves the issue with scrolling over a data grid pretty well for the cases when you don't have other inner scrollable controls.
For the case when the scroll viewer has as children other scrollable controls and a data grid, then that requires that the event shouldn't be marked as handled at the end of the event handler for the main scroll viewer so it could be catched also in the inner scrollable controls, however that has the side effect that when the scroll should occur only on the inner scrollable control, it will also occur on the main scroll viewer.
So I've updated Dave's solution with the difference for how the scroll viewer is found so it won't be necessary to know the name of the scroll viewer:
private void DataGrid_PreviewMouseWheel(object sender, MouseWheelEventArgs e)
{
ScrollViewer scrollViewer = (((DependencyObject)sender).GetVisualParent<ScrollViewer>());
scrollViewer.ScrollToVerticalOffset(scrollViewer.VerticalOffset - e.Delta);
}
#fjch1997, I used your solution and it works pretty well.
There is only one problem which I found. It's connected with the comment of #Vadim Tofan:
For the case when the scroll viewer has as children other scrollable
controls and a data grid, then that requires that the event shouldn't
be marked as handled at the end of the event handler for the main
scroll viewer so it could be catched also in the inner scrollable
controls, however that has the side effect that when the scroll should
occur only on the inner scrollable control, it will also occur on the
main scroll viewer.
I also tried to remove e.Handled = true statement, but then the effect is not nice - both scrolls are moved in the same time. So, finally I enhanced a little bit event handler method to the following one:
private static void ScrollViewer_PreviewMouseWheel(object sender, System.Windows.Input.MouseWheelEventArgs e)
{
ScrollViewer scrollViewer = (ScrollViewer)sender;
FrameworkElement origicalControlSender = e.OriginalSource as FrameworkElement;
ScrollViewer closestScrollViewer = origicalControlSender.GetParent<ScrollViewer>();
if (closestScrollViewer != null && !ReferenceEquals(closestScrollViewer, scrollViewer))
{
return;
}
scrollViewer.ScrollToVerticalOffset(scrollViewer.VerticalOffset - e.Delta);
e.Handled = true;
}
public static T GetParent<T>(this FrameworkElement control)
where T : DependencyObject
{
FrameworkElement parentElement = control?.Parent as FrameworkElement;
if (parentElement == null)
{
return null;
}
T parent = parentElement as T;
if (parent != null)
{
return parent;
}
return GetParent<T>(parentElement);
}
This now prevents the outside scroller to scroll in case inner ScrollViewer exists.
Guys I`ve seen most of the solution posted over here and fundamentally all of them are right, but I think there is an easiest and more elegant syntax that we could apply.
Assuming that we don't need to scroll with our data grid and instead we would like to scroll with our MainWindow
fallowing "Dave" and "Vladim Tofan" answer
Private Void Scrlll(Object sebder, MouseWheelEventArgs e)
{
var windows = (Window.GetWindow(this) as MainWindow).MainScroll;
windows.ScrollToVerticalOffset(windows.VerticalOffset - e.Delta);
}
Sorry, for bad english.
Here is a larger example of creating a WPF behavior that scrolls the DataGrid.
First define the following base class for gluing together framework element with behavior class and its behavior implementation.
using System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Input;
namespace SomeAcme.Client.Infrastructure
{
/// <summary>
/// Behavior handler class for creating WPF behaviors.
/// </summary>
[ExcludeFromCodeCoverage]
public class BehaviorHandler<TAssociatedObject, TBehaviorClass>
where TAssociatedObject: DependencyObject
where TBehaviorClass : class, IAssociationBehavior, new()
{
public BehaviorHandler()
{
}
public static TBehaviorClass GetBehavior(DependencyObject obj)
{
if (obj == null)
return null;
return (TBehaviorClass)obj.GetValue(BehaviorProperty);
}
public static void SetBehavior(DependencyObject obj, TBehaviorClass value)
{
if (obj != null)
{
obj.SetValue(BehaviorProperty, value);
}
}
// Using a DependencyProperty as the backing store for Behavior. This enables animation, styling, binding, etc...
public static readonly DependencyProperty BehaviorProperty =
DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached("Behavior", typeof(TBehaviorClass), typeof(object), new FrameworkPropertyMetadata(null, FrameworkPropertyMetadataOptions.Inherits));
public void FindOrCreateBehaviorOnDemand(DependencyObject dependencyObject)
{
//Apply the behavior
TBehaviorClass behavior = FindOrCreateBehavior(dependencyObject);
if (behavior != null)
{
dependencyObject.SetValue(BehaviorProperty, behavior);
}
}
public TBehaviorClass FindOrCreateBehavior(DependencyObject dependencyObject)
{
if (dependencyObject == null)
return null;
var associatedObject = dependencyObject;
if (associatedObject == null)
return null;
var behavior = dependencyObject.GetValue(BehaviorProperty) as TBehaviorClass;
if (behavior == null)
{
var behaviorAssociated = new TBehaviorClass();
if (behaviorAssociated == null)
return null;
behaviorAssociated.InitializeAssociation(associatedObject, AssociatedCommands);
return behaviorAssociated;
}
else
{
return behavior;
}
} //TBehaviorClass FindOrCreateBehavior
/// <summary>
/// Set the associated commands to pass into the WPF behavior, if desired
/// </summary>
public ICommand[] AssociatedCommands { get; set; }
}
}
This looks a bit more complex, but it simplifies boiler plate coding when it comes to gluing together the behavior class with the framework element. In this particular case we will not need to use an associated command.
Our scroll viewer behavior then looks like this:
using SomeAcme.Client.Infrastructure;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Controls;
using System.Windows.Input;
namespace SomeAcme.Client.Infrastructure
{
public static class ScrollViewerMouseWheelScrollBehavior
{
public static string GetUseMouseScrollForScrollViewer(DependencyObject obj)
{
if (obj != null)
{
return (string)obj.GetValue(UseMouseScrollForScrollViewerProperty);
}
else
return null;
}
public static void SetUseMouseScrollForScrollViewer(DependencyObject obj, string value)
{
if (obj != null)
{
obj.SetValue(UseMouseScrollForScrollViewerProperty, value);
}
}
public static readonly DependencyProperty UseMouseScrollForScrollViewerCommandProperty =
DependencyProperty.RegisterAttached("UseScrollForScrollViewer", typeof(string), typeof(ScrollViewerMouseWheelScrollBehavior),
new PropertyMetadata(new PropertyChangedCallback(OnUseScrollForScrollViewerSet)));
public static void OnUseScrollForScrollViewerSet(DependencyObject dependencyObject, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs eventArgs)
{
bool useScroll;
bool.TryParse(eventArgs.NewValue?.ToString(), out useScroll);
if (useScroll)
{
var behaviorHandler =
new BehaviorHandler<ScrollViewer, ScrollViewerMouseScrollBehaviorImplementation>();
//behaviorHandler.AssociatedCommands =
// new Microsoft.Practices.Prism.Commands.DelegateCommand<object>[] { (Microsoft.Practices.Prism.Commands.DelegateCommand<object>)eventArgs.NewValue };
behaviorHandler.FindOrCreateBehaviorOnDemand(dependencyObject);
}
}
}
}
namespace SomeAcme.Client.Infrastructure
{
public class ScrollViewerMouseScrollBehaviorImplementation : IAssociationBehavior
{
public void InitializeAssociation(DependencyObject associatedObject, params ICommand[] commands)
{
//TODO: Add commands to associate
var scrollViewer = associatedObject as ScrollViewer;
if (scrollViewer != null)
{
scrollViewer.PreviewMouseWheel += ScrollViewer_PreviewMouseWheel;
}
}
private void ScrollViewer_PreviewMouseWheel(object sender, MouseWheelEventArgs e)
{
var scrollViewer = sender as ScrollViewer;
if (scrollViewer != null)
{
scrollViewer.ScrollToVerticalOffset(scrollViewer.VerticalOffset - e.Delta);
}
}
}
}
In XAML we then can first define the namespaces:
xmlns:local="clr-namespace:SomeAcme.Client.Infrastructure"
xmlns:sys="clr-namespace:System;assembly=mscorlib"
Finally we are ready to use the mouse wheel scroll by using the WPF behavior in the XAML.
..
<TabControl Grid.Row="1">
<TabItem Header="Skjemafelter">
<ScrollViewer Height="700" local:ScrollViewerMouseWheelScrollBehavior.UseMouseScrollForScrollViewer="{x:Static sys:Boolean.TrueString}">
<ListView x:Name="ColumnsListView" ItemsSource="{Binding CurrentFields}">
<ListView.View>
<GridView>
I have tested and verified that this approach works. For developers working with a WPF app, utilizing WPF behaviors keeps amount of code in code behind still to the minimum bits and staying faitfully to the MVVM approach.
The Grid has a built in ScrollPanel so wrapping it with a ScrollPanel didn't work at all for me (making the Grid of fixed height was out of the question because I wanted it to resize nicely with the rest of the application).
What I did was a combination of a few of the higher rated solutions in here, but essentially the idea is to get rid of the ScrollPanel and just pipe the PreviewMouseEvent of the DataGrid back to the parent control that is actually handling the scrolling (in my case it was a Grid).
private void DataGrid_PreviewMouseWheel(object sender, MouseWheelEventArgs e)
{
MouseWheelEventArgs eventArg = new MouseWheelEventArgs(e.MouseDevice, e.Timestamp, e.Delta)
{
RoutedEvent = MouseWheelEvent, Source = e.Source
};
DependencyObject parent = VisualTreeHelper.GetParent((DependencyObject) sender);
while (parent != null && !(parent is Grid))
{
parent = VisualTreeHelper.GetParent(parent);
}
if (parent != null)
{
Grid grid = (Grid) parent;
grid.RaiseEvent(eventArg);
}
e.Handled = true;
}
I found this: http://wpfthoughts.blogspot.com/2014/05/datagrid-vertical-scrolling-issues.html and thought I should add it here.
"If you are targeting Framework 4.5 there is a new dependency object on the DataGrid's internal VirtualizingPanel called ScrollUnit that can be set to Item (the default) or Pixel. If we modify the XAML a little we can see how it works."
<DataGrid Name="DG" ItemsSource="{Binding B0}" AutoGenerateColumns="False" IsReadOnly="true" RowDetailsVisibilityMode="Visible" Width="200"
Height="100" VirtualizingPanel.ScrollUnit="Pixel">
I know it's been a while, but I met the same issue and solved it with DockPanel
<DockPanel Grid.ColumnSpan="3" LastChildFill="True">
<Button DockPanel.Dock="Top" Content="Add" Grid.Column="3" HorizontalAlignment="Right" Width="110" Height="30" Margin="5"/>
<DataGrid x:Name="xxDG" SelectionUnit="Cell" ItemsSource="{Binding}" Margin="0, 0, 0, 0" >
...
</DataGrid>
</DockPanel>
For some reason this handles the mouse wheel events like a charm.
I found that ScrollViewer can't be concatenated, which means if it is concatenated like in your case the Grid starts under the ScrollViewer tag and in the Grid we have DataGrid and in the DataGrid again the ScrollViewer property has been set. i.e.
