How to check if a scroll (vertical or horizontal) is currently shown in WPF DataGrid? HorizontalScrollBarVisibility and VerticalScrollBarVisibility are used to set the behaviour and they are set to Auto.

+2  A: 
ScrollViewer scrollview = FindVisualChild<ScrollViewer>(dataGrid);
Visibility verticalVisibility = scrollview.ComputedVerticalScrollBarVisibility;
Visibility horizontalVisibility = scrollview.ComputedHorizontalScrollBarVisibility;

I have to implement FindVisualChild myself, don't I?

+1  A: 

Here's an implementation of FindVisualChild:

private childItem FindVisualChild<childItem>(DependencyObject obj)
    where childItem : DependencyObject
{
    for (int i = 0; i < VisualTreeHelper.GetChildrenCount(obj); i++)
    {
        DependencyObject child = VisualTreeHelper.GetChild(obj, i);
        if (child != null && child is childItem)
            return (childItem)child;
        else
        {
            childItem childOfChild = FindVisualChild<childItem>(child);
            if (childOfChild != null)
                return childOfChild;
        }
    }
    return null;
}
