I have defined a datagrid like this ::
<cc:PEDataGrid AutoGenerateColumns="False"
ItemsSource="{Binding Rows}"
Width="Auto"
PreviewMouseRightButtonDown="PEGrid_PreviewMouseRightButtonDown"
Loaded="CommonPEGrid_Loaded">
<wpfkit:DataGrid.ContextMenu>
<ContextMenu>
<MenuItem Header="Cut" />
<MenuItem Header="Copy"/>
<MenuItem Header="Paste"/>
</ContextMenu>
</wpfkit:DataGrid.ContextMenu>
</cc:PEDataGrid>
This shows contextMenu on every cell when right click is done.
I want to disable context menu for all the cells except headers and also on header for some condition. (I dont want to use DataGridHeaderStyle because of some other problems which I dont want to explain here.)
I have defined a handler for PreviewMouseRightButtonDown on the datagrid and in the handler I am trying to do something like this::
private void PEGrid_PreviewMouseRightButtonDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
DependencyObject depObj = (DependencyObject)e.OriginalSource;
while ((depObj != null) && !(depObj is DataGridColumnHeader))
{
depObj = VisualTreeHelper.GetParent(depObj);
}
if (depObj == null)
{
return;
}
if (depObj is DataGridColumnHeader)
{
//some condition here which says whether contextmenu is required on this header
(depObj as DataGridColumnHeader).ContextMenu = null;
//the above line is not working!!!!
}
else
{
(depObj as DataGridCell).ContextMenu = null;
//the above line not working!!!!
}
}
I want to know where am I going wrong!! Please help me regarding this. Also guide me to do in a better way if I am achieving my requirement in a wrong way :)
