Yudi,

I have followed your advice and have replaced the DataPresenterManager with the UXGridView, however I am having issues reproducing some basic functionality that the DataPresenterManager has. Our objective is to have up to 3 selectable DataTemplates that would be consumed by Rows.

Example of DataTemplates:

1) This would be defaulted when loading the UXGridView

2) Once a UXButton on the UXPage that contains the UXGridView is pressed, the RowTemplate would change to show this,

How can we achieve this?

I’m afraid that DataPresenterManager has now been discontinued and there are not going to be any further updates for it. Intersoft has UXGridView which is the enhanced and better version of DataPresneterManager.

Such scenario can be achieved by using the UXGridViewComboBoxColumn. We can use the DisplayMemberPath property to display the Description of JournalType and has the JournalType ID as the ValueMemberPath.

Hope this helps.

Each Journal can only have one Journal Type. I'm sorry if I was not clear on the relation but it is one to one.

Is there no way to display anything other than a string in the Presenter Manager?

From your description, it seems that each Journal has one-to-many relationship with the JournalType. If my assumption is correct, I’d like to suggest you to try to use UXGridView control. We can utilize the DisplayMemberPath property of UXGridView to achieve the expected scenario.

Please let us hear your feedback if you have different scenario.

Data Presenter Manager Columns - Binding Complex Types

Hello,

I am having problems when binding complex types to the Data Presenter Manager. I have been able to explicitely define text columns with no issue. Below is a sample of my XAML

In this example, the overlying context is a collection of Journals.

Each Journal has a complex type, JournalType, that has the string property Description.

However when running, it shows the data is there yet does not properly display the Description. Is there a "DisplayMemberPath" (UXComboBox) like property that I should be utilizing?

    <Intersoft:DataPresenterTextColumn Caption="Type" DataMemberField="JournalType">
                        <Intersoft:DataPresenterTextColumn.CellTemplate>
                            <DataTemplate>
                                <TextBlock Text="{Binding Description}" />
                            </DataTemplate>
                        </Intersoft:DataPresenterTextColumn.CellTemplate>
    </Intersoft:DataPresenterTextColumn>

Regards,

Kat
