FixedFooters Property (DataGridGroupConfiguration)

Gets a collection of DataTemplates that represent the items that are located in the fixed footer sections of the groups to which the configuration is applied.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public ReadOnly Property FixedFooters As ObservableCollection(Of DataTemplate)

'Usage
 
Dim instance As DataGridGroupConfiguration
Dim value As ObservableCollection(Of DataTemplate)
 
value = instance.FixedFooters

public ObservableCollection<DataTemplate> FixedFooters {get;}

Property Value

A generic ObservableCollection of DataTemplates that represent the items that are located in the fixed footer sections of the groups to which the configuration is applied.

Elements contained in the fixed footer section of a group will remain visible when the containing group is collapsed.

Remarks

All items added to a header or footer section must be provided as a DataTemplate.

The GroupContext attached property will only be set on the first (i.e., root) element in the DataTemplate and can be accessed through a RelativeSource binding using the Self mode (see example below). Any child elements in the template can access the parent's GroupContext through an ElementName binding. For example:

Example

The following example demonstrates how to add a control to the fixed footers of a group (select all items in a group).

XAML

<sldg:DataGridControl x:Name="sldgDataGridControl"
                      ItemsSource="{Binding Path=Orders}">

      <sldg:DataGridControl.GroupDescriptions>
        <sldg:DataGridGroupDescription PropertyName="Age">
            <sldg:DataGridGroupDescription.GroupConfiguration>
                <sldg:DataGridGroupConfiguration>
                    <sldg:DataGridGroupConfiguration.FixedFooters>
                        <DataTemplate>
                            <Button Content="Select Items in Group"
                                    Click="SelectGroupItems_Click"
                                    Tag="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}, Path=(sldg:DataGridControl.GroupContext)}" />
                        </DataTemplate>
                    </sldg:DataGridGroupConfiguration.FixedFooters>
                </sldg:DataGridGroupConfiguration>
            </sldg:DataGridGroupDescription.GroupConfiguration>
        </sldg:DataGridGroupDescription>
    </sldg:DataGridControl.GroupDescriptions>
</sldg:DataGridControl>
