My ObservableCollection has three items, and the rows are consistently shown in the datagrid.
I cannot turn into edit mode a single cell of my DataGrid. I tried click, click-click, double-click, F2,…, but the whole row stay selected. How can I let the user edit the datagrid.
I found similar datagrid edit-questions in other posts but no-one solved my problem. Here is the code (WPF NetFramework 4.5). Pursposely, only the first column is non-editable (readonly).
<DataGrid Name="myDataGrid" Grid.Row="2" AutoGenerateColumns="False" ItemsSource="{Binding}" IsReadOnly="False">
<DataGrid.Columns>
<DataGridTemplateColumn Header="name" IsReadOnly="True" Width="200" >
<DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding Name}"/>
</DataTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn>
<DataGridTemplateColumn Header="Formulation" Width="100" IsReadOnly="False">
<DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding FormulationStr}" />
</DataTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
<DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding FormulationStr}" />
</DataTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn>
<DataGridTemplateColumn Header="volume Diff" Width="100" IsReadOnly="False">
<DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding volumeDiff}" />
</DataTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
<DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<TextBlock Text="{Binding volumeDiff}" />
</DataTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn>
</DataGrid.Columns>
</DataGrid>

You have placed
TextBlock
incell template
as well as incell editing template
. That's why you are not noticing any change on pressing F2 and double-clicking the cell since no matter what it will always beTextBlock
which you can't edit.Either placed
TextBox
in yourCellEditingTemplate
like this -Or either simply use the
DataGridTextColumn
in place ofDataGridTemplateColumn
which internally provides the support what are you trying to achive by the above code -
