Question

I have a grid with two columns and multiple rows, each cell containing a number of controls. Among these controls I have a button which should, when I press it, delete all the controls in the current grid cell. How can I get the index of the grid cell my button is in and how can I delete all controls in this cell?

Answer 1

Does this work for you? you’ll need to add a using statement for System.Linq

//get the row and column of the button that was pressed.
var row = (int)myButton.GetValue(Grid.RowProperty);
var col = (int)myButton.GetValue(Grid.ColumnProperty);

//go through each child in the grid.
foreach (var uiElement in myGrid.Children)
{ //if the row and col match, then delete the item.
    if (uiElement.GetValue(Grid.ColumnProperty) == col && uiElement.GetValue(Grid.RowProperty) == row)
            myGrid.Children.Remove(uiElement);
}
