Hello,
I'm trying to click a button and display some calculation result in a grid cell, but I noticed the result was not refreshed until I click the cell.
Is there any way I can make the grid cell to be auto refreshing? I tried to set both AllowLiveDataShaping and DetectNestedPropertyChanges are true but it doesn't work as expected.
Thanks,
Sylvia
Hello Sylvia,
In a general case, for a grid cell to update automatically, the data item class you use in your data source must implement INotifyPropertyChanged. Perhaps, the data item you currently use does not implement this interface. We described this usage scenario and possible solutions in the following help topic section: GridControl Cells Do Not Update Their Content After Changing Values in Data Item Properties. Please try one of these solutions and let me know if it helps.
If it is not possible to implement INotifyPropertyChanged, you can still call the RefreshData method after updating the value. You can also call RefreshRow and pass the row handle that corresponds to the row whose cell you need to update (see: The Data Source Cannot Support an Update Mechanism).
If none of these works, please elaborate on the details of your implementation. I would appreciate it if you could send us a sample project that illustrates such implementation. This way, we will be in a better position to find a suitable solution for you.
Regards,
Marc
