Parameters
- editingUnit
Type: System.Windows.Controls.DataGridEditingUnit
Specifies whether to cancel editing for a Row or Cell.
Return Value
Type: System.Boolean
true if the operation was successful; otherwise, false.
Remarks
By default, you can edit items directly in the DataGrid. You manually cancel a cell edit by pressing ESC one time, and cancel all edits in a row by pressing ESC two times. To guarantee that edits can be committed and canceled correctly, the objects in the DataGrid must implement the IEditableObject interface. Alternatively, you can set the IsReadOnly property to true to disable editing in the DataGrid.
