Hello all!

I'm using the datagrid from wpf 4.0. This has a TemplateColumn containing a checkbox. The IsChecked property of the checkbox is set via binding.

The problem is that even if I specify the binding mode explicitly to be TwoWay, it works only in one direction.

I have to mention that the same code works perfectly in .net 3.5 with the datagrid from the wpf toolkit.

Please take a look at the .xaml and .cs contents.

Thanks in advance,

Roland

<Window.Resources>
    <DataTemplate
        x:Key="IsSelectedColumnTemplate">
        <CheckBox
            IsChecked="{Binding Path=IsSelected, Mode=TwoWay}"
            />
    </DataTemplate>
</Window.Resources>
<Grid>
    <DataGrid
        x:Name="dataGrid"
        AutoGenerateColumns="false"
        CanUserAddRows="False"
        CanUserDeleteRows="False"
        HeadersVisibility="Column"
        ItemsSource="{Binding}"
        >
        <DataGrid.Columns>
            <DataGridTemplateColumn 
                Header="Preselected"
                x:Name="myIsSelectedColumn" 
                CellTemplate="{StaticResource IsSelectedColumnTemplate}"
                CanUserSort="True"
                SortMemberPath="Orientation"
                Width="Auto"
                />
        </DataGrid.Columns>
    </DataGrid>
</Grid>

and the related .cs content:

public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
    public MainWindow()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        ObservableCollection<DataObject> DataSource = new ObservableCollection<DataObject>();
        DataSource.Add(new DataObject());            
        dataGrid.ItemsSource = DataSource;
    }
}

public class DataObject : DependencyObject
{
    public bool IsSelected
    {
        get { return (bool)GetValue(IsSelectedProperty); }
        set { SetValue(IsSelectedProperty, value); }
    }

    // Using a DependencyProperty as the backing store for IsSelected.  This enables animation, styling, binding, etc...
    public static readonly DependencyProperty IsSelectedProperty =
        DependencyProperty.Register("IsSelected", typeof(bool), typeof(DataObject), new UIPropertyMetadata(false, OnIsSelectedChanged));

    private static void OnIsSelectedChanged(DependencyObject obj, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        // this part is not reached
    }
}
