An enumeration value.

Name Description
Default

The component’s content is aligned according to outer styles a user applies.

Left

The component’s content is aligned to the left of the component’s root element.

Right

The component’s content is aligned to the right of the component’s root element.

Center

The component’s content is aligned to the center of the component’s root element.

SpaceBetween

The component’s content uses the justify-content: space-between alignment.

SpaceAround

The component’s content uses justify-content: space-around alignment.

Remarks

Use the Alignment property to change checkbox alignment at runtime. To specify the alignment in markup, use the DxCheckBoxSettings.Alignment property.

The Grid aligns the checkbox editor to the left border of the container if the editor’s Alignment property is set to SpaceBetween. If the property is set to SpaceAround, the Grid centers the checkbox within the container.

Note

In EditRow and EditCell edit modes mode, the Alignment property has no effect and the checkbox editor is centered within its cell.

The ICheckBoxSettings interface allows you to get and customize settings of a checkbox editor at runtime. You can get editor settings in the following ways:

  • Call the GetColumnEditSettings method to get editor settings of the column bound to the specified data source field.

    Important

    You need to enclose your code between BeginUpdate and EndUpdate method calls to change values of Grid component parameters outside the Grid component markup. Otherwise, an exception occurs.

    var checkboxSettings = e.Grid.GetColumnEditSettings<ICheckBoxSettings>("Discontinued");
    if(checkboxSettings != null) {
        e.Grid.BeginUpdate();
        checkboxSettings.Alignment = CheckBoxContentAlignment.Right;
        e.Grid.EndUpdate();
    }
    
  • Handle the CustomizeFilterRowEditor event to customize a cell editor in the filter row.
    void Grid_CustomizeFilterRowEditor(GridCustomizeFilterRowEditorEventArgs e) {
        if(e.EditSettings is ICheckBoxSettings checkboxSettings)
            checkboxSettings.Alignment = CheckBoxContentAlignment.Right;
    }
    
  • Handle the CustomizeDataRowEditor event to customize a cell editor in a data row.
    void Grid_CustomizeDataRowEditor(GridCustomizeDataRowEditorEventArgs e) {
        if(e.EditSettings is ICheckBoxSettings checkboxSettings)
            checkboxSettings.Alignment = CheckBoxContentAlignment.Right;
    }
