Public Shared Property AlwaysUseLegacyColumnChooser As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Default	Description
Boolean	false

true to display the Column Chooser in the legacy window; false to use this legacy window only if the GridControl is in a pop-up window.

Remarks

You can display the GridControl in a popup. In this case, the pop-up window closes if a user invokes the GridControl‘s Column Chooser. The legacy Column Chooser window changes this behavior and retains the pop-up window’s opened state.

However, the legacy Column Chooser window does not have rounded corners in DevExpress Windows 11 themes.
