Remarks

For pattern Views, this property returns the Rectangle.Empty value.

Note

Detail pattern Views do not contain data and they are never displayed within XtraGrid. So, the ViewRect member must not be invoked for these Views. The ViewRect member can only be used with Views that display real data within the Grid Control. Use the following methods to access these Views with which an end user interacts at runtime.

The following code snippet (auto-collected from DevExpress Examples) contains a reference to the ViewRect property.
