We have recently upgraded from v13.1 to v14.1 of the Infragistics WPF suite and it seems that the XamGrid Filter menu has changed functionality (or has a bug?). In v13.1, we used this XAML to add a filter menu to a XamGrid:
<ig:XamGrid.FilteringSettings>
<ig:FilteringSettings AllowFiltering="FilterMenu" FilteringScope="ColumnLayout" />
</ig:XamGrid.FilteringSettings>
Which would work fine, however, when we upgraded to v14.1, the same XAML shows the filter menu, but does not allow the user to type in the search text box - you can check/uncheck items and even cut and paste text into the search box and then use the backspace button to delete the text just pasted.
Is there some setting we need to change to make the textbox not semi-read only, or is this a bug?
Hello Gary,
Thank you for your post!
I have been looking into it. I have created a small sample application to test the scenario you have mentioned in your post and I was not been able to reproduce it. In the sample application I have a simple xamGrid bound to a collection and for the filter settings I have used the provided by you settings. Also, I have used Infragistics 14.1 controls with the latest service release - 2027.
I have created a small video for you to see the functionality on my side. Also, I am attaching the sample application I have been testing with for your reference. Would you please modify the attached sample application with the functionality you are using, so it reproduces the issue. This way I would be able to further research this issue for you and provide you with further support.
Additionally on the following link from our documentation you can find what is new in the Infragistics 14.1: http://help.infragistics.com/Help/Doc/WPF/2014.1/CLR4.0/html/Whats_New_in_2014_Volume_1.html.
Thank you for the cooperation. Looking forward to hearing from you.
We are using build 14.120141.1015 (according to the file details from one of the DLLs). I will update to the latest service release and try our application again.
Just checking back on this, is there any work around available for this while we wait for a service release?
The development issue with ID of 173753 has been fixed and it is available in the latest Service Release. You can download the Service Release by logging in our web site and then going to Account\My Keys and Downloads page.
Thank you for using Infragistics Components.
Thanks the Infragistics_WPF_20141.2108_SR.zip service release fixed this issue.
Thank you for the feedback. Please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any further questions on this matter.
Hi Gergana,
As it turns out, I ran into another issue with the XamGrid filter. Attached is a modified version of my previously posted example. This version starts the WPF window in a separate thread. If you click on the "button 1" to open the WPF window, and then access the filter icon of the resulting WPF window, everything works fine. If you then close the WPF window and re-open another one with the "button 1" button and try to access the filter menu again, the application crashes with the exception below. Any ideas on how to fix this?
