cxExportGraphicClass Constant

Specifies the graphic class type used to generate external or inline images for exported data.

Declaration

const cxExportGraphicClass: TGraphicClass = TBitmap;

Returns

Type	Description
TGraphicClass	The class-reference to the target graphic class.

Remarks

Use the cxExportGraphicClass global constant to define the format for external or inline images generated as a part of a data export operation from a DevExpress container control (that is, Data Grid, Tree List, Pivot Grid, or Vertical Grid). This global constant affects data export operations only in those formats that use external or inline images (XML or HTML, for instance).

For example, you can set the cxExportGraphicClass constant to the TMetafile or TJPEGImage class to reduce the storage size for generated external images.

Note

Data export operations in DevExpress controls never create duplicate images.
