Question

Is it possible to set DataGridCell’s template when using WpfToolkit’s DataGrid? Or is it possible to set style property for a single cell at the time?

I know that there is a TemplateColumn class which lets the user set templates for displaying and editing cell’s data but that’s not what I’m looking for.

I need to display two-dimensional arrays with DataGrid and style single cells according to their values. I’d also like to use VM-M-V model and create ViewModel wrapper for each cell which would have an IsSelected property binded to cell’s IsSelected property so I could easily iterate over my data source for selected cell’s instead of using DataGrid’s more row oriented API.

Here’s a couple of ways I found to get started:

Another option is the following:

<List<string>> tempList = new List<List<string>> {     new List<string> { 'vince', 'elizabeth', 'brian', 'mark' },     new List<string> { 'vince2', 'elizabeth2', 'brian2', 'mark2' },     new List<string> { 'vince3', 'elizabeth3', 'brian3', 'mark3' },     new List<string> { 'vince4', 'elizabeth3', 'brian3', 'mark4' }, };  for(int i=0; i<tempList[0].Count; i++) {     DataGrid_Standard.Columns.Add(new DataGridTextColumn {             Header = i,             DataFieldBinding = new Binding('[' + i + ']')         }); } DataGrid_Standard.ItemsSource = tempList;
