Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Core.v24.2.dll

Declaration

Remarks

DevExpress container controls (GridControl, TreeListControl, and so on) use DevExpress WPF Editors to edit data they display. Each editor has a helper class (a BaseEditSettings descendant) that is responsible for the editor’s functionality. When the same editor is used in multiple locations, a container control uses this helper class to paint its cells. The actual editors are only created when users start to edit, and are automatically deleted when editing is completed.

Refer to the Assign Editors to Cells topic for more information.

For detailed information on text editors, see TextEdit.

Example

The following sample demonstrates how to embed a TextEdit into a GridControl column.

XAML

<dxg:GridControl>
    <dxg:GridColumn FieldName="FirstName">
        <dxg:GridColumn.EditSettings>
            <dxe:TextEditSettings/>
        </dxg:GridColumn.EditSettings>
    </dxg:GridColumn>
    <dxg:GridControl.View>
        <dxg:TableView/>
    </dxg:GridControl.View>
</dxg:GridControl>
