扩展GridView控件——为内容项添加拖放及分组功能

引言

相信大家对GridView都不陌生,是非常有用的控件,用于平铺有序的显示多个内容项。打开任何WinRT应用或者是微软合作商的网站,都会在APP中发现GridView的使用。“Tiles”提供了一个简单易用,平铺方式来组织内容显示。Windows8的开始菜单是最典型的GridView 示例。“开始菜单”显示了系统中安装的所有应用程序,而且支持重新排列。

本文源于我们项目的开发人员,他们想在项目中提供与GridView相同的用户体验,想要创建类GridView控件。

GridView 可以显示大小不定的内容项,并且以有序的方式显示。如果各个内容项无序,并且内容尺寸大小相同,GirdView还支持拖拽操作。然而,这些功能并不是默认提供的,需要编写一定的代码才能实现。

本文主要介绍了扩展GridView控件——称为GridViewEx, GridViewEx主要实现GridView在不同大小的内容项中的拖拽功能。

背景

首先了解GridView的基本属性和功能,GridView包含一些属性集和 ItemTemplate。为了实现通过拖拽操作执行重排列功能,必须完成以下三件事:

1. 设置AllowDrop属性为true;

2. 设置CanReorderItems 属性值为True;

3. 绑定数据源,该数据源必须支持数据修改或支持重排序。例如,使用ObservableCollection或IList数据源。

<GridView ItemsSource="{Binding}" AllowDrop="True" CanReorderItems="True"> <GridView.ItemTemplate> <DataTemplate> <Border BorderBrush="Aqua" BorderThickness="1" Background="Peru"> <Grid Margin="12"> <Grid.RowDefinitions> <RowDefinition /> <RowDefinition Height="Auto"/> </Grid.RowDefinitions> <TextBlock Text="{Binding}"/> <TextBlock Grid.Row="1">item</TextBlock> </Grid> </Border> </DataTemplate> </GridView.ItemTemplate> </GridView>

扩展后的GridView使用拖拽操作将会非常方便快捷。

扩展GridView控件——为内容项添加拖放及分组功能

GridViewEx 控件

GridViewEx控件弥补了GridView,功能如下:

  • 实现Item Panel 拖拽操作,而不是WrapGrid,StackPanel、VirtualizingStackPanel等
  • 分组时,实现拖拽功能;

我们也为GridViewEx增加了新建分组的功能,如果用户将内容项拖到控件左边或右边时会触发新建分组操作。

实现拖拽代码:

 1: public class GridViewEx : GridView
 2: {
 3:  /// <summary>
 4:  /// Initializes a new instance of the <see cref="GridViewEx"/> control.
 5:  /// </summary>
 6:  public GridViewEx()
 7:  {
 8:  // see attached sample
 9:  }
 10: 
 11:  private void GridViewEx_DragItemsStarting(object sender, DragItemsStartingEventArgs e)
 12:  {
 13:  // see attached sample
 14:  }
 15: 
 16:  /// <summary>
 17:  /// Stores dragged items into DragEventArgs.Data.Properties["Items"] value.
 18:  /// Override this method to set custom drag data if you need to.
 19:  /// </summary>
 20:  protected virtual void OnDragStarting(DragItemsStartingEventArgs e)
 21:  {
 22:  // see attached sample
 23:  }

该控件包含几个变量,用来存储拖放内容的索引。OnDragStarting 事件在DragEventArgs.Data.Properties[“Items”] 中存储拖拽的内容。OnDragStarting 需要根据自己的需求重写。

当用户拖拽某一项内容时,需要给用户提示来引导用户将内容放在合适的位置上。标准的GriView对象是通过滑动相邻的内实项来实现的。本文将在GridViewEx中完善此操作。

 1: /// <summary>
 2: /// Shows reoder hints while custom dragging.
 3: /// </summary>
 4: protected override void OnDragOver(DragEventArgs e)
 5: {
 6:  // see attached sample }
 7:  
 8: private int GetDragOverIndex(DragEventArgs e)
 9: {
 10:  // see attached sample 
 11: }

实现拖放代码

首先需要重写GridView.OnDrop方法,该方法会当用户释放某一项内容时触发。重写Ondrop方法,代码如下:

 1: /// <summary>
 2: /// Handles drag and drop for cases when it is not supported by the Windows.UI.Xaml.Controls.GridView control
 3: /// </summary>
 4: protected override async void OnDrop(DragEventArgs e)
 5: {
 6:  // see attached sample
 7: }

 

OnDrop方法主要实现了内容项从源分组移到目标分组的逻辑代码,以及创建新分组的功能。

添加新分组

如果GrideView通过将IsSourceGrouped值为True来绑定CollectionViewSource情况下,GridView提供分组功能,这就意味着分组必须对数据源进行分组,但GridView没有访问数据的权限。因此本文在执行拖放操作时,实现添加新分组功能。GridViewEx.BeforeDrop事件处理此需求,并且提供更多的数据信息,如DragEventArgs数据。

当用户执行拖放操作时,触发BeforeDrop 事件。

 1: /// <summary>
 2: /// Occurs before performing drop operation,
 3: /// </summary>
 4: public event EventHandler<BeforeDropItemsEventArgs> BeforeDrop;
 5: /// <summary>
 6: /// Rises the <see cref="BeforeDrop"/> event.
 7: /// </summary>
 8: /// <param name="e">Event data for the event.</param>
 9: protected virtual void OnBeforeDrop(BeforeDropItemsEventArgs e)
 10: {
 11:  // see attached sample 
 12: }

BeforeDropItemEventArgs包含关于被拖拽的内容项的重要信息,该信息在OnDrop事件中可使用的。

 1: /// <summary>
 2: /// Provides data for the <see cref="GridViewEx.BeforeDrop"/> event.
 3: /// </summary>
 4: public sealed class BeforeDropItemsEventArgs : System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs
 5: {
 6:  /// <summary>
 7:  /// Gets the item which is being dragged.
 8:  /// </summary>
 9:  public object Item
 10:  {
 11:  get;
 12:  }
 13:  /// <summary>
 14:  /// Gets the current item index in the underlying data source.
 15:  /// </summary>
 16:  public int OldIndex
 17:  {
 18:  get;
 19:  }
 20:  /// <summary>
 21:  /// Gets the index in the underlying data source where
 22:  /// the item will be inserted by the drop operation.
 23:  /// </summary>
 24:  public int NewIndex
 25:  {
 26:  get;
 27:  }
 28:  /// <summary>
 29:  /// Gets the bool value determining whether end-user actions requested
 30:  /// creation of the new group in the underlying data source.
 31:  /// This property only makes sense if GridViewEx.IsGrouping property is true.
 32:  /// </summary>
 33:  /// <remarks>
 34:  /// If this property is true, create the new data group and insert it into
 35:  /// the groups collection at the positions, specified by the 
 36:  /// <see cref="BeforeDropItemsEventArgs.NewGroupIndex"/> property value.
 37:  /// Then the <see cref="GridViewEx"/> will insert dragged item
 38:  /// into the newly added group.
 39:  /// </remarks>
 40:  public bool RequestCreateNewGroup
 41:  {
 42:  get;
 43:  }
 44:  /// <summary>
 45:  /// Gets the current item data group index in the underlying data source.
 46:  /// This property only makes sense if GridViewEx.IsGrouping property is true.
 47:  /// </summary>
 48:  public int OldGroupIndex
 49:  {
 50:  get;
 51:  }
 52:  /// <summary>
 53:  /// Gets the data group index in the underlying data source
 54:  /// where the item will be inserted by the drop operation.
 55:  /// This property only makes sense if GridViewEx.IsGrouping property is true.
 56:  /// </summary>
 57:  public int NewGroupIndex
 58:  {
 59:  get;
 60:  }
 61:  /// <summary>
 62:  /// Gets the original <see cref="DragEventArgs"/> data. 
 63:  /// </summary>
 64:  public DragEventArgs DragEventArgs
 65:  {
 66:  get;
 67:  }
 68: }

AllowNewGroup属性确定用户拖拽某一内容项到控件边界时,是否创建新组。GridView并没有提供此功能,在GridViewEX添加此功能。

 1: /// <summary>
 2: /// Gets or sets the value determining whether new group should be created at 
 3: /// dragging the item to the empty space.
 4: /// </summary>
 5: public bool AllowNewGroup
 6: {
 7:  get { return (bool)GetValue(AllowNewGroupProperty); }
 8:  set { SetValue(AllowNewGroupProperty, value); }
 9: }
 10: 
 11: /// <summary>
 12: /// Identifies the <see cref="AllowNewGroup"/> dependency property.
 13: /// </summary>
 14: public static readonly DependencyProperty AllowNewGroupProperty =
 15:  DependencyProperty.Register("AllowNewGroup", typeof(bool),
 16:  typeof(GridViewEx), new PropertyMetadata(false));

为了在拖拽过程中添加分组,需要将AllowNewGroup属性设置为True。处理GridViewEx.BeforeDrop事件,该事件的参数能够帮助决定单项内容的起始位置和目的位置。在BeforeDrop事件的Handler中,使用 NewGroupIndex 创建新的数据组,并插入到已有组集合。最后,需要实现的扩展GridView控件模板。在用户可拖拽的项目的位置创建新分组,并使用占位符来代替。一旦用户拖某一内容放置到控件的边界时,触发创建新分组,ItemsPresenter的两个边界元素是新组的占位符。

GridViewEx控件模板generic.xaml,如下:

 1: <Style TargetType="local:GridViewEx">
 2:  <Setter Property="Padding" Value="0,0,0,10" />

丰富GridViewEx功能

如上所示,我们已经实现了基本的拖拽操作,与Windows8 开始菜单类似的功能,接下来讨论如何实现以下功能:

  • 尺寸大小不定的内容项
  • 分组
  • 添加新组
  • 节省跨会话布局空间

大小不定的内容项

Windows8展示了不同大小的Tiles,但是目前GridView或GridViewEx还不支持此功能。因为GridView使用WrapGrid作为默认的ItemsPanel,WrapPanel只能创建一种布局,即所有的条目尺寸相同的。因此微软提供了VariableSizedWrapGrid,支持不同大小块的布局创建。

GridViewEx控件的优势在于能够使用VariableSizedWrapGrid,并且很好的支持拖放操作。为了使用VariableSizedWrapGrid 并显示不同大小的内容项,必须实现以下功能:

将GridViewEx.ItemsPanel 设置为VariableSizedWrapGrid

在GridView中重写GridView 的PrepareContainerForItemOverride 方法。在该方法中,可以设置Item的RowSpan或ColumnSpan属性来识别内容项的大小。

即生成继承GridViewEx的新控件MyGridView。为什么需要扩展GridViewEx控件而不是重写GridViewEx的PrepareContainerForItemOverride方法?因为指定Item尺寸的逻辑必须放在数据模型中,而不是控件内部。

如想将某一项显示较大一点,需要在数据项中创建一个属性返回比1大的整型数值,来设置RowSpanhuoColumnSpan属性。

 1: public class Item
 2: {
 3:  public int Id { get; set; }
 4:  public int ItemSize { get; set; }
 5:  /* */
 6: }

因此,当创建新的内容项,我们要指定ItemSize属性。如果值为1则表明常规尺寸,如果值为2则表明大尺寸,ColumnSpan属性则设置为2。

 1: /// <summary>
 2: /// This class sets VariableSizedWrapGrid.ColumnSpanProperty for GridViewItem controls, 
 3: /// so that every item can have different size in the VariableSizedWrapGrid.
 4: /// </summary>
 5: public class MyGridView : GridViewSamples.Controls.GridViewEx
 6: {
 7:  // set ColumnSpan according to the business logic
 8:  // (maybe some GridViewSamples.Samples.Item or group properties)
 9:  protected override void PrepareContainerForItemOverride(
 10:  Windows.UI.Xaml.DependencyObject element, object item)
 11:  {
 12:  try
 13:  {
 14:  GridViewSamples.Samples.Item it = item as GridViewSamples.Samples.Item;
 15:  if (it != null)
 16:  {
 17:  element.SetValue(
 18:  Windows.UI.Xaml.Controls.VariableSizedWrapGrid.ColumnSpanProperty, it.ItemSize);
 19:  }
 20:  }
 21:  catch
 22:  {
 23:  element.SetValue(Windows.UI.Xaml.Controls.VariableSizedWrapGrid.ColumnSpanProperty, 1);
 24:  }
 25:  finally
 26:  {
 27:  base.PrepareContainerForItemOverride(element, item);
 28:  }
 29:  }
 30: }

创建MyGridView实例,并绑定到数据集合。

 1: <local:MyGridView AllowDrop="True" CanReorderItems="True"
 2:  CanDragItems="True" IsSwipeEnabled="True"
 3:  ItemsSource="{Binding}"
 4:  ItemTemplate="{StaticResource ItemTemplate}" >
 5:  <GridView.ItemsPanel>
 6:  <ItemsPanelTemplate>
 7:  <VariableSizedWrapGrid ItemHeight="160"
 8:  ItemWidth="160" />
 9:  </ItemsPanelTemplate>
 10:  </GridView.ItemsPanel>
 11:  <GridView.ItemContainerStyle>
 12:  <Style TargetType="GridViewItem">
 13:  <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment"
 14:  Value="Stretch"/>
 15:  <Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment"
 16:  Value="Stretch"/>
 17:  </Style>
 18:  </GridView.ItemContainerStyle>
 19: </local:MyGridView>

如上所示,我们将指定内容项的ItemSize属性设置为2,效果如图所示:

扩展GridView控件——为内容项添加拖放及分组功能

分组

使用GridViewEx控件,能够实现添加新分组和拖拽等功能,也是在App中最为常见的功能,实现分组必须完成以下设置:

  • 为GridView绑定CollectionViewSource,必须使用支持分组的数据源。CollectionViewSource可视为代理服务器。
  • 使用GroupStyle确定分组结果如何显示,GroupStyle包含Header Tempate及Panel,因此需要指定子项目的排序方式。

在GridViewEx中添加支持不同大小的内容项,逻辑代码:

 1: <local:MyGridView AllowDrop="True" CanReorderItems="True"
 2:  CanDragItems="True" IsSwipeEnabled="True"
 3:  ItemsSource="{Binding}"
 4:  ItemTemplate="{StaticResource ItemTemplate}" >
 5:  <GridView.ItemsPanel>
 6:  <ItemsPanelTemplate>
 7:  <VirtualizingStackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"/>
 8:  </ItemsPanelTemplate>
 9:  </GridView.ItemsPanel>
 10:  <GridView.GroupStyle>
 11:  <GroupStyle>
 12:  <GroupStyle.HeaderTemplate>
 13:  <DataTemplate>
 14:  <Grid Background="LightGray"
 15:  Margin="0">
 16:  <TextBlock Foreground="Black"
 17:  Margin="10"
 18:  Style="{StaticResource 
 19:  GroupHeaderTextStyle}">
 20:  <Run Text="{Binding Id}"/>
 21:  <Run Text=" group"/>
 22:  </TextBlock>
 23:  </Grid>
 24:  </DataTemplate>
 25:  </GroupStyle.HeaderTemplate>
 26:  
 27:  <GroupStyle.ContainerStyle>
 28:  <Style TargetType="GroupItem">
 29:  <Setter Property="BorderBrush"
 30:  Value="DarkGray"/>
 31:  <Setter Property="BorderThickness"
 32:  Value="2"/>
 33:  <Setter Property="Margin"
 34:  Value="3,0"/>
 35:  </Style>
 36:  </GroupStyle.ContainerStyle>
 37:  
 38:  <GroupStyle.Panel>
 39:  <ItemsPanelTemplate>
 40:  <VariableSizedWrapGrid ItemHeight="160"
 41:  ItemWidth="160" />
 42:  </ItemsPanelTemplate>
 43:  </GroupStyle.Panel>
 44:  </GroupStyle>
 45:  </GridView.GroupStyle>
 46:  
 47:  <GridView.ItemContainerStyle>
 48:  <Style TargetType="GridViewItem">
 49:  <Setter Property="HorizontalContentAlignment"
 50:  Value="Stretch"/>
 51:  <Setter Property="VerticalContentAlignment"
 52:  Value="Stretch"/>
 53:  </Style>
 54:  </GridView.ItemContainerStyle>
 55: </local:MyGridView>

运行演示:

扩展GridView控件——为内容项添加拖放及分组功能

添加新分组

自定义的GridViewEx控件支持新分组的创建,因此需要设置AllowNewGroup为True。其次处理添加新分组的数据层,处理GridViewEx.BeforeDrop 事件。

 1: /// <summary>
 2: /// Creates new CollectionViewSource and updates page DataContext.
 3: /// </summary>
 4: private void UpdateDataContext()
 5: {
 6:  CollectionViewSource source = new CollectionViewSource();
 7:  source.Source = _groups;
 8:  source.ItemsPath = new PropertyPath("Items");
 9:  source.IsSourceGrouped = true;
 10:  this.DataContext = source;
 11: }
 12: // creates new group in the data source,
 13: // if end-user drags item to the new group placeholder
 14: private void MyGridView_BeforeDrop(object sender, Controls.BeforeDropItemsEventArgs e)
 15: {
 16:  if (e.RequestCreateNewGroup)
 17:  {
 18:  // create new group and re-assign datasource 
 19:  Group group = Group.GetNewGroup();
 20:  if (e.NewGroupIndex == 0)
 21:  {
 22:  _groups.Insert(0, group);
 23:  }
 24:  else
 25:  {
 26:  _groups.Add(group);
 27:  }
 28:  UpdateDataContext();
 29:  }
 30: }

也可以使用Drop事件删除空分组

 1: // removes empty groups (except the last one)
 2: private void MyGridView_Drop(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
 3: {
 4:  bool needReset = false;
 5:  for (int i = _groups.Count - 1; i >= 0; i--)
 6:  {
 7:  if (_groups[i].Items.Count == 0 && _groups.Count > 1)
 8:  {
 9:  _groups.RemoveAt(i);
 10:  needReset = true;
 11:  }
 12:  }
 13:  if (needReset)
 14:  {
 15:  UpdateDataContext();
 16:  }
 17: }

节省布局空间

Windows8支持挂起或终止功能,为了提供更好的用户体验,我们继续改善此前实现的功能,当用户离开当前页面,将当前的布局暂存。在本示例中,我们使用JSON 字符串简化数据序列化。根据已有的数据、数据的大小及需求,以其他格式来保存数据。我们主要将“业务对象集合”保存。

为了节省布局空间。重写LayoutAwarePage方法:

 1: /// <summary>
 2: /// Populates the page with content passed during navigation.  Any saved state is also
 3: /// provided when recreating a page from a prior session.
 4: /// </summary>
 5: /// <param name="navigationParameter">The parameter value passed to
 6: /// <see cref="Frame.Navigate(Type, 
 7: /// Object)"/> when this page was initially requested.
 8: /// </param>
 9: /// <param name="pageState"
 10: /// >A dictionary of state preserved by this page during an earlier
 11: /// session.  This will be null the first time a page is visited.</param>
 12: protected override void LoadState(Object navigationParameter,
 13:  Dictionary<String, Object> pageState)
 14: {
 15:  base.LoadState(navigationParameter, pageState);
 16:  if (pageState != null && pageState.Count > 0
 17:  && pageState.ContainsKey("Groups"))
 18:  {
 19:  // restore groups and items from the previously serialized state
 20:  System.Runtime.Serialization.Json.DataContractJsonSerializer rootSer =
 21:  new System.Runtime.Serialization.Json.DataContractJsonSerializer(typeof(List<Group>));
 22:  var stream = new MemoryStream(System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes
 23:  ((string)pageState["Groups"]));
 24:  _groups = (List<Group>)rootSer.ReadObject(stream);
 25:  }
 26:  else
 27:  {
 28:  // if we get here for the first time and don't have
 29:  // serialized content, fill groups and items from scratch
 30:  for (int j = 1; j <= 12; j++)
 31:  {
 32:  Group group = Group.GetNewGroup();
 33:  for (int i = 1; i <= 7 + j % 3; i++)
 34:  {
 35:  group.Items.Add(new Item()
 36:  {
 37:  Id = i,
 38:  GroupId = group.Id
 39:  });
 40:  }
 41:  _groups.Add(group);
 42:  }
 43:  }
 44:  UpdateDataContext();
 45: }
 46:  
 47: /// <summary>
 48: /// Preserves state associated with this page in case the application is suspended or the
 49: /// page is discarded from the navigation cache.  Values must conform to the serialization
 50: /// requirements of <see cref="SuspensionManager.SessionState"/>.
 51: /// </summary>
 52: /// <param name="pageState">

 54: protected override void SaveState(Dictionary<String, Object> pageState)
 55: {
 56:  // save groups and items to JSON string so that 
 57:  // it's possible to restore page state later
 58:  base.SaveState(pageState);
 59:  System.Runtime.Serialization.Json.DataContractJsonSerializer rootSer =
 60:  new System.Runtime.Serialization.Json.DataContractJsonSerializer
 61:  (typeof(List<Group>));
 62:  var stream = new MemoryStream();
 63:  rootSer.WriteObject(stream, _groups);
 64:  string str = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(stream.ToArray(),
 65:  0, (int)stream.Length);
 66:  pageState.Add("Groups", str);
 67: }
 68:  
 69: /// <summary>
 70: /// Invoked when this page is about to be displayed in a Frame.
 71: /// </summary>
 72: /// <param name="e">Event data that describes

 74: /// property is typically used to configure the page.</param>
 75: protected override void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)
 76: {
 77:  // restore page state
 78:  var frameState =
 79:  GridViewSamples.Common.SuspensionManager.SessionStateForFrame(this.Frame);
 80:  if (frameState.ContainsKey("TilePageData"))
 81:  {
 82:  this.LoadState(e.Parameter,
 83:  (Dictionary<String, Object>)frameState["TilePageData"]);
 84:  }
 85:  else
 86:  {
 87:  this.LoadState(e.Parameter, null);
 88:  }
 89: }
 90:  
 91: protected override void OnNavigatedFrom(NavigationEventArgs e)
 92: {
 93:  // save page state with "TilePageData" key
 94:  var frameState =
 95:  GridViewSamples.Common.SuspensionManager.SessionStateForFrame(this.Frame);
 96:  var pageState = new Dictionary<String, Object>();
 97:  this.SaveState(pageState);
 98:  frameState["TilePageData"] = pageState;
 99: }

总结

GridViewEx控件丰富了GirdView控件功能,改进了基础功能,提升用户体验。到此已经实现了GridView项与Windows8开始菜单具有的相同用户体验,如果你想了解如何在Windows10平台下开发UWP引用,请持续关注下篇文章:如何在Windows10中开发UWP应用
