GridPersistentLayoutEventArgs Class

Provides data for the LayoutAutoSaving and LayoutAutoLoading events.

Namespace: DevExpress.Blazor

Assembly: DevExpress.Blazor.v24.1.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Blazor

Declaration

public class GridPersistentLayoutEventArgs

Remarks

The Grid allows you to save and restore the component’s layout when necessary. The saved layout object includes the current page, column sort order/direction, column position, filter values, and grouped columns (information about expanded rows in groups is not included).

To save and restore the Grid layout automatically, handle the following events:

The following code snippet demonstrates how to ensure the grid’s layout persistence. When the component layout changes, the LayoutAutoSaving event handler saves the updated layout to the browser’s local storage. Once the page is reloaded or restored, the LayoutAutoLoading event handler loads the most recently-saved layout from the local storage and applies it to the grid.
