I've set up a tree view so that when the user double clicks on a node, they can edit its title (IsEditable is set to true).   This works fine but the event handler for NodeEdited ALWAYS gets called, even if the user hits ESC to cancel the edit.  Is there a way to keep this from happening so that NodeEdited is only triggered when the user hits Enter?

Thank you.

Hi,

Thats true, however when the event is called you have access to the current Title and the EditedTitle.  Simply comare these two and perform your actions when they differ.

if(e.Source.EditedTitle != e.Source.Title)

{

        // Perform operation when edited

}

Thanks!

Hi, Dan.  

That works if the user edits the title and then clicks somewhere off that node to put focus elsewhere.  I'm able to detect that the EditedTitle and Title are equivalent and the operation is canceled.  However, it does not work if the user presses ESC.  In that case, Title and Edited titles are different, just as they are when the user presses enter.  I'm simply looking for behavior similar to how Windows works.  (Actually, when renaming a Windows folder, for example, you press ESC to cancel and press Enter or simply place focus elsewhere to confirm).

Thank you.

Hi,

Good point, i've altered the code to reset the EditedTitle property to the original node title.  The NodeEdited event will still be raised but with the two properties now being the same it should be easy for you to dismiss events where no change has occurred.

This update will be included in the next version which will be released in conjunction with the official Silverlight 4 release.

Thanks!
