Property Value

Type	Description
DetailView

The DetailView object representing a detail view displayed with the current list view.

Remarks

XAF displays a List View together with a Detail View when the IModelListView.MasterDetailMode property of the appropriate Views | <ListView> node is set to ListViewAndDetailView. In this scenario, the Detail View demonstrates the object currently focused in the List View’s List Editor:

The EditView property allows you to customize this Detail View and access its View Items. To do this, you can use the following properties: CompositeView.Items, CompositeView.LayoutManager, and DetailView.Model.

The following example demonstrates how to access and customize a Property Editor of a Detail View in MasterDetailMode :

csharp

using System.Linq;
using DevExpress.ExpressApp;
using DevExpress.ExpressApp.Editors;
using DevExpress.ExpressApp.SystemModule;

namespace MySolution.Module.Controllers {
    public class UpdateShortcutViewController : ViewController<ListView> {
        protected override void OnViewControlsCreated() {
            base.OnViewControlsCreated();
            if(View.EditView != null) {
                ListPropertyEditor detailsPropertyEditor = View.EditView.Items.OfType<ListPropertyEditor>().FirstOrDefault();
                if(detailsPropertyEditor?.Frame != null) {
                    NewObjectViewController newObjectViewController = detailsPropertyEditor.Frame.GetController<NewObjectViewController>();
                    if(newObjectViewController != null) {
                        newObjectViewController.NewObjectAction.Shortcut = "CtrlI";
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
