DataGridView.IsRefreshing Property

Allows you to hide the refresh or load indicator that the grid displays when executing the pull-to-refresh or load-more operation.

Namespace: DevExpress.XamarinForms.DataGrid

Assembly: DevExpress.XamarinForms.Grid.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.XamarinForms.Grid

Declaration

[XtraSerializableProperty]
public bool IsRefreshing { get; set; }

Property Value

Type Description
Boolean

true if the grid displays the refresh or load indicator; otherwise, false.

Remarks

When a user pulls the grid down to check for data updates or scrolls to the bottom of the grid to load more data items, the grid displays an indicator to show the pull-to-refresh or load-more activity status.

Pull To Refresh

Set the IsRefreshing property to false to notify the grid that the refresh activity is completed and the indicator should be hidden. However, if you set this property to true, it does not force the grid to show the indicator.

Example

This example shows how to set up the grid so that it allows users to request a content update with the pull-down gesture. To do this, follow the steps below.

  1. Set the DataGridView.IsPullToRefreshEnabled property to true to enable the grid’s pull-to-refresh functionality.
  2. Create a command to be executed when a user pulls the grid down. Set the DataGridView.IsRefreshing property to false after data is refreshed to hide the refresh indicator in the grid.

  3. Bind the DataGridView.PullToRefreshCommand property to the created command.
