If I have a grid view within a listview and this grid view has definitions for 3 columns.
for each cell in the grid is a textbox, if I want to access a specific "cell" in the gridview, how do I go about doing it? I am accessing it from the C# side.
Don't try to manipulate the cells directly; although it is possible, it's difficult and counter-intuitive. You should manipulate the bound objects instead.

How add different controls in one column GridView?
I want it to be like this.
Without creating separate gridviews, for other controls.
As far as I see, each row has its own type and the same editor should edit cells in this row. For this scenario, I think it's better to use the Vertical Grid instead of the Grid View.
If you still wish to use the Grid View, use the GridView.CustomRowCellEdit and GridView.CustomRowCellEditForEditing events to assign the required editor to a grid cell.
I am new to Stack Overflow. I want to ask if it is possible to use a button outside datagrid to control data display in Datagrid in WPF C#?
I read something, but most of them are putting a button in one column in datagrid. Can anyone give some information?
Bind (two way) your data grid to an observable collection of object. On-Button-click, update the property of objects (as you want) which are being displayed in datagrid.
I am in need of a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn that displays a multi-column grid drop down, similar to the one described here. Basically, I need to override the DropDown event of the underlying ComboBox. The example at the bottom of this page shows how I can add event handlers. But, I need to override the showing of the drop down. I'm guessing I need to create my own ComboBox class but how do I connect that with a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn? Has anyone done something similar?
This looks like a winner
.NET datagrid is a graphical user interface component that presents a tabular view of data. .NET datagrid supports the following common interface features:
Clicking a column header to implement grid sorting
Dragging column headers to change their size
In-cell editing of shown data
Row and column separators, and alternating row background colors
Datagrid's cells can be presented as some different control types (textbox, button, date/time picker etc.) within datagrid interface layout. However much important control is combobox that could be placed in datagrid...
I ended up finding the following on MSDN that outlines how to create a custom DataGridView column. This includes creating a cell type, a column type, and an Editing control type. I ended up using a ListView control inside a form with no borders as my drop down grid.

While working in WPF i have the need for a Dynamic Grid. By this i mean a grid that contains only one kind of object, has a template for that object etc. But unlike a similar ItemsControl like a Listbox, i want the grid to be given a Maximum Columns property. This should act as a delimiter which will then calculate the number of rows needed based on the number of objects within the grid. To do this, i thought of inherriting a Grid to make use of its Row and Column properties, but i have a problem... I dont know how to implement an ItemsSource property outside of inherriting the ItemsSource from an ItemsControl...
so my question comes in two parts...
Am i pursuing this the right way? should i be inherriting ItemsControl and trying to re-implement the Grid behavior
if this is the right way to do it, how do i implement an ItemsSource property with its corresponding ItemTemplate
Perhaps a better way would be to use a ListView? Here is an example how to achieve 3-column output: http://kristofmattei.be/2010/03/16/multi-column-listview/
Do you want something like UniformGrid? If you set the Columns property (and don't set the Rows property), it will automatically figure out how many rows to create to hold its items.
I am looking for a way to populate a single grid using data bindings.
The way I do this at the moment is by using an ItemsControl where each item is represented as a Grid with the columns that I need. The main reason I want a single grid is to make the widths of all columns line up.
Is there way for the Grid panel to be used with ItemsControl so that there is a single grid to contain all the items?
Or is there another solution?
Why not just use DataGrid?
You can make grid column widths "line up" across grids by using Grid.IsSharedSizeScope and SharedSizeGroup.
You simply need to set the Grid.IsSharedSizeScope property to true on the element that contains your grids, then set the SharedSizeGroup on the ColumnDefinitions you want to have the same width.
Both of the links above have examples.
Use a ListView with a GridView embedded in the ListView.View property. There are examples of this here and here.
