how to make grid honour viewmodel data annotations
posted

Im using a view model as the data source for a grid and i have some date properties

        [DisplayName("Start Date")]
        [DisplayFormat(ApplyFormatInEditMode = true, DataFormatString = "{0:dd/MM/yyyy}")]
        public DateTime  StartDate { get; set; }

        [DisplayName("End Date")]
        [DisplayFormat(ApplyFormatInEditMode = true, DataFormatString = "{0:dd/MM/yyyy}")]
        public DateTime EndDate { get; set; }

when I display these in the grid they default to US format date.  I dont want to have to repeat the format in the grid definition (it kinda defeats the object of data annotations on the model) so how can i make the grid honour the data format in my model ?

    Hello Mark ,

     Thank you for posting in our forum.

    Currently the igGrid does not take into account the DisplayFormat annotation when generating its client-side code.

    You can log adding this functionality as a new product idea at <http://ideas.infragistics.com>. 

    In the meantime you can specify the Format option of the related columns to change the displayed format. 

    Let me know if you have any questions. 

    Best Regards,
