wpf 4 datagrid not highlighting row.
- by SteveCav
I have a shiny new wpf 4 datagrid, and no matter what I do I can't make the row highlight when the user clicks on a cell. It works on the empty "new record" row on the bottom, but not on rows with data (yes I've tried with and without readonly).
My XAML is:
<DataGrid AutoGenerateColumns="False" Background="Beige" Height="353" SelectionUnit="FullRow" SelectionMode="Single" AlternatingRowBackground="lightcyan" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Name="dgJobs" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="1160">
<DataGrid.Columns>
<DataGridTextColumn Header="Job ID" Width="80" Binding="{Binding JobID}" IsReadOnly="True"></DataGridTextColumn>
<DataGridTextColumn Header="Site" Width="SizeToCells" Binding="{Binding AssetName}" IsReadOnly="True"></DataGridTextColumn>
<DataGridTextColumn Header="Category" Width="SizeToCells" Binding="{Binding CategoryName}" IsReadOnly="True"></DataGridTextColumn>
<DataGridTextColumn Header="Status" Width="SizeToCells" Binding="{Binding JobStatusDesc}" IsReadOnly="True"></DataGridTextColumn>
<DataGridTextColumn Header="Reason" Width="SizeToCells" Binding="{Binding Reason}" IsReadOnly="True"></DataGridTextColumn>
</DataGrid.Columns>
</DataGrid>
Nothing too fancy, it's quite plain really. I had themes enabled because I'm using a Fluent Ribbon elsewhere and it forces you to, but I tried turning that off and it had no effect.
I have a 3.5 form in another app which is also very plain and you can highlight the row on it. Why on earth isn't this one working?
