GridColumnHeaderCaptionTemplateContext Class

Stores information about a column header’s caption and is passed as the context parameter to the DxGrid.ColumnHeaderCaptionTemplate and DxGridColumn.HeaderCaptionTemplate.

Namespace: DevExpress.Blazor

Assembly: DevExpress.Blazor.v23.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Blazor

Declaration

public class GridColumnHeaderCaptionTemplateContext

Remarks

The DxGrid.ColumnHeaderCaptionTemplate and DxGridColumn.HeaderCaptionTemplate accept a GridColumnHeaderCaptionTemplateContext object as the context parameter. You can use the parameter’s members to get information about the caption of the column header.

The following example shows the tooltip when a user hovers the mouse pointer over any column caption:
