IDataFitler as related .Refresh - Grids for WPF Forum

Posted 13 years ago by jeff jarrell

Version: 11.1.0543

I have an editor in the PropertyGrid that will need to force everything through the IDataFilter again. As it sits, if I call PropertyGrid.Refresh() the propertygrid calls back through the DataFactory again (ours is custom) and completely rebuilds the propertyGrid. This is a big disconcerting flicker so to speak. Is there anything a little less than .Refresh that will trigger the IDataFilter?

Thanks,
jeff

Hi Jeff,

The IDataFilter interface specifies that a FilterChanged event must be implemented. If you fire this event, then the PropertyGrid will tell the associated CollectionView to reapply the filter. This would by-pass the extra call into the DataFactory.

The containers (i.e. PropertyGridDataAccessorItem) will still have to be recreated/arranged/measured, due to how CollectionView works. So it's unlikely to increase the performance.

Ok. Thanks.

The latest build of this product (v24.1.2) was released 2 days ago, which was after the last post in this thread.
