ContextMenu row commands

[Tyree]

We have backed the grid with a collection of RowViewModels. So each row has its own Commands - like Save, Delete, etc. I was hoping you could add a context menu to the GridView and that its "Command" attribute would have each row as its context but alas it does not. So, is there any way to make the context menu have context of the row so the Command just works, or do I have to wire the Command each time it opens?

Hi Tyree,

You can get the clicked row and use it as a DataContext during the ItemClick event of the ContextMenu. For example:

private void GridContextMenu_ItemClick(object sender, Telerik.Windows.RadRoutedEventArgs e)
{
    RadContextMenu menu = (RadContextMenu)sender;
    RadMenuItem clickedItem = e.OriginalSource as RadMenuItem;
    GridViewRow row = menu.GetClickedElement<GridViewRow>();
    this.clubsGrid.Items.Remove(row.DataContext);
}

 

Best wishes,
