Public ReadOnly Property Bands As ObservableCollectionCore(Of GridControlBand)
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| DevExpress.Xpf.Core.ObservableCollectionCore<GridControlBand> |
A collection of the GridControl‘s bands.
|
The GridControl stores its bands in the Bands collection. This collection’s methods allow you to add new and remove existing bands. The GridControlBand objects are individual bands. You can access bands by an index.
<dxg:GridControl.Bands>
<dxg:GridControlBand Header="Customer">
<dxg:GridColumn FieldName="Name"/>
</dxg:GridControlBand>
<dxg:GridControlBand Header="Information">
<dxg:GridColumn FieldName="City"/>
<dxg:GridColumn FieldName="Visits"/>
<dxg:GridColumn FieldName="Birthday"/>
</dxg:GridControlBand>
</dxg:GridControl.Bands>
View Example: Create a Banded View
Note
You cannot explicitly specify a band‘s width. The width of the GridControl‘s bands depends on the width of band columns.
The following code sample sorts the GridControl‘s data agains the specified band’s column:
public partial class MainWindow : Window {
public MainWindow() {
...
grid.SortBy(grid.Bands.Single(b => b.Header.ToString() == "Information").Columns.Single(c => c.FieldName == "Visits"));
}
}
Public Partial Class MainWindow
Inherits Window
Public Sub New()
...
grid.SortBy(grid.Bands.Single(Function(b) b.Header.ToString() = "Information").Columns.Single(Function(c) c.FieldName = "Visits"))
End Sub
End Class
Note
You cannot set the Bands and the GridControl.Columns properties at the same time.
The following code snippet (auto-collected from DevExpress Examples) contains a reference to the Bands property.
