Note

The TreeList View does not support data paging.

Enabling Data Paging

Set the GridViewBase.AllowPaging property to true to enable data paging:

• XAML

<dxg:GridControl>
    <!---->            
    <dxg:GridControl.View>
        <dxg:TableView AllowPaging="True" />
    </dxg:GridControl.View>
</dxg:GridControl>

The table below describes how Data Paging works depending on the data binding mode:

How Data Paging Works

| | --- | --- | |

Regular Mode

|

The GridControl loads all data to memory. End-users use the pager to navigate through loaded data.

| |

Server Mode

|

The GridControl loads and displays the first portion of data from the data source and requests subsequent data sections when an end-user navigates to another page.

The GridControl caches data internally. Data is not reloaded when end-users navigate to previous pages.

| |

Virtual Sources

|

The PagedSource and PagedAsyncSource allow you to request data manually. You can obtain the current page’s rows or load all data at once.

The GridControl caches data internally. The PagedAsyncSource.FetchPage and PagedSource.FetchPage events are not invoked when end-users navigate to a previous page.
