using DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.API.Native;
// ...
richEditControl1.Document.Unit = DocumentUnit.Inch;
Section sectionDoc = richEditControl1.Document.Sections[0];
SectionColumnCollection sectionColumnsLayout = sectionDoc.Columns.CreateUniformColumns(sectionDoc.Page, 0.25f, 3);
sectionDoc.Columns.SetColumns(sectionColumnsLayout);
Imports DevExpress.XtraRichEdit.API.Native
' ...
richEditControl1.Document.Unit = DocumentUnit.Inch
Private sectionDoc As Section = richEditControl1.Document.Sections(0)
Private sectionColumnsLayout As SectionColumnCollection = sectionDoc.Columns.CreateUniformColumns(sectionDoc.Page, 0.25f, 3)
sectionDoc.Columns.SetColumns(sectionColumnsLayout)
