How do i handle cell double click event on WPF DataGrid, equivalent to windows DataGrid's Events?

Question

As you know, in windows C#\'s gridview, if we want to handle a click/double click event on cell then there are events like CellClick, CellDoubleClick, etc.

So, i wan

Answer 1

An alternative way would to be define a DataGridTemplateColumn instead of using the predefined columns like DataGridCheckBoxColumn, DataGridComboBoxColumn and then add an event handler to the UI element defined in the data template.

Below I have defined a MouseDown event handler for a TextBlock Cell.

<DataGrid AutoGenerateColumns="False">
    <DataGrid.Columns>

        <DataGridTemplateColumn>
            <DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
                <DataTemplate>
                    <TextBlock MouseDown="TextBlock_MouseDown"/>
                </DataTemplate>
            </DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
        </DataGridTemplateColumn>
    </DataGrid.Columns>
</DataGrid>

In the Code behind file:

private void TextBlock_MouseDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
    TextBlock block = sender as TextBlock;
    if (block != null)
    {
        // Some Logic
        // block.Text
    }
}

I know coding WPF is sometimes a PITA. Here you would have to handle the MouseDoubleClick event anyway. Then search the source object hierarchy to find a DataGridRow and do whatever with it.

UPDATE: Sample code

XAML

<dg:DataGrid MouseDoubleClick="OnDoubleClick" />

Code behind

private void OnDoubleClick(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
    DependencyObject source = (DependencyObject) e.OriginalSource;
    var row = GetDataGridRowObject(source);
    if (row == null)
    {
         return;
    }
    else
    {
        // Do whatever with it
    }
    e.Handled = true;
}

private DataGridRow GetDataGridRowObject(DependencyObject source)                               
{
    // Write your own code to recursively traverse up via the source
    // until you find a DataGridRow object. Otherwise return null.
}

}

I know this may be a little late to the party, but this might be useful to someone else down the road.

In your MyView.xaml:

<DataGrid x:Name="MyDataGrid" ...>
    <DataGrid.Resources>
        <Style TargetType="{x:Type DataGridCell}">
            <EventSetter Event="MouseDoubleClick" Handler="DataGridCell_MouseDoubleClick"/>
        </Style>
    </DataGrid.Resources>

    <!-- TODO: The rest of your DataGrid -->
</DataGrid>

In your MyView.xaml.cs:

private void DataGridCell_MouseDoubleClick(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
{
    var dataGridCellTarget = (DataGridCell)sender;
    // TODO: Your logic here
}
