Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.PivotGrid

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.PivotGrid.v14.2.dll

#Declaration

public object GetCellValue(
    PivotGridField dataField
)

#Parameters

Name Type Description
dataField PivotGridField

A PivotGridField object that specifies the data field, against which the required cell value is calculated.

#Returns

Type Description
Object

Value displayed in the specified cell; null (Nothing in Visual Basic) if the cell has not been found.

#Remarks

Using the GetCellValue method makes sense when there are two or more data fields. In this instance, columns (rows) contain sub-columns (sub-rows) that correspond to appropriate data fields (see the image below). The GetCellValue method allows you to obtain a cell value calculated for the same column and row field values as the processed cell value, but against another data field. The dataField parameter identifies the sub-column (sub-row) in which the desired cell resides.

The value of the processed cell can be obtained via the PivotCellBaseEventArgs.Value property.
