DataGridColorColumn: Hide HEX Value - Editors for WPF Forum

Posted 13 years ago by MCRXB

Hi,

It seems that there are properties to hide most parts of the control (color preview, checkbox, drop down arrow) but not the HEX value. Is there a simple way to manage this through a template?

Thanks

Hello,

I'm not sure what you mean. Do you want to hide the actual data entry portion of the control?

Yes, I'd like to have the control display: Checkbox, Color Preview, Drop Down Arrow. Is that possible?

Hello,

We don't currently have an option to hide the "text" portion, which is actually a part group. We've added one for the next maintenance release though.

In the meantime, you'd have to use a custom class like:

public class MyColorEditBox : ColorEditBox {
        protected override void GenerateDefaultItems(SlottedItemCollection defaultItems) {
            if (defaultItems == null)
                throw new ArgumentNullException("defaultItems");

            base.GenerateDefaultItems(defaultItems);

            for (int i = defaultItems.Count - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
                if (defaultItems[i] is ColorPartGroup)
                    defaultItems.RemoveAt(i);
            }
        }
}
