BaseColumn.HeaderTemplateSelector Property

Gets or sets an object that chooses a column header template based on custom logic. This is a dependency property.

Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Grid

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

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.Grid.Core

#Declaration

public DataTemplateSelector HeaderTemplateSelector { get; set; }

#Property Value

Type Description
DataTemplateSelector

A DataTemplateSelector descendant that chooses a template based on custom logic.

#Remarks

A template that defines the column header’s presentation is specified by the BaseColumn.HeaderTemplate property. If you have more than one template that can be used to render the column’s header, you can implement custom logic to choose the required template. To do this, derive from the DataTemplateSelector class, implement the SelectTemplate method that returns a template which meets the required condition, and assign it to the HeaderTemplateSelector property.

If both the BaseColumn.HeaderTemplate and HeaderTemplateSelector are specified, the column’s header is rendered using the template returned by the template selector. If the template selector returns null, the template specified by the BaseColumn.HeaderTemplate property is used.
