Disable selecting in WPF DataGrid

Question

How can I disable selecting in a WPFTooklit's DataGrid? I tried modifying the solution that works for ListView (from http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1051215/wpf-listview-turn-off-selection#comment-863179), but that doesn't work:

<tk:DataGrid>
    <tk:DataGrid.ItemContainerStyle>
        <Style TargetType="{x:Type tk:DataGridRow}">
            <Setter Property="Focusable" Value="false"/>
        </Style>
    </tk:DataGrid.ItemContainerStyle>
    <tk:DataGrid.CellStyle>
        <Style TargetType="{x:Type tk:DataGridCell}">
            <Setter Property="Focusable" Value="false"/>
        </Style>
    </tk:DataGrid.CellStyle>
</tk:DataGrid>

Answer 1

There is a trick for this. You can handle SelectionChanged event of the DataGrid(say dgGrid) and in the handler write:

dgGrid.UnselectAll();

It will unselect all selected row and result will be "No row selected".

As pointed out by Sonic Soul here, viky's solution doesn't actually work.

Here is actual working code to disable selection in a DataGrid:

grid.SelectionChanged += (obj, e) => 
  Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(DispatcherPriority.Render, new Action(() => 
    grid.UnselectAll()));

Another simple way is to change the Selection Style with an IsSelected Trigger to Transparent.
