Remarks

Form Layout can display a caption above an item or at its left. Use CaptionPosition properties to position item captions. Individual settings have higher priority.

Positioned Elements Property
A single caption. DxFormLayoutItem.CaptionPosition
All captions in a group. DxFormLayoutGroup.CaptionPosition
All captions in a tab. DxFormLayoutTabPage.CaptionPosition
All captions in all tabs. DxFormLayoutTabPages.CaptionPosition

If there is not enough space for the caption, Form Layout moves it above the associated editor (the Vertical position) regardless of the CaptionPosition property value.

<DxFormLayout CaptionPosition="CaptionPosition.Vertical">
    <DxFormLayoutItem Caption="Location:" ColSpanMd="12">
      <DxTextBox />
    </DxFormLayoutItem>
    <DxFormLayoutItem Caption="Check in:" >
      <DxDateEdit Date="DateTime.Today" />
    </DxFormLayoutItem>
    <DxFormLayoutItem Caption="Check in:">
      <DxDateEdit Date="DateTime.Today.AddDays(5)" />
