Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Grid.LookUp

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Grid.v20.2.dll

NuGet Packages: DevExpress.WindowsDesktop.Wpf.Grid.Core, DevExpress.Wpf.Grid.Core

Declaration

C#

public bool AllowGrouping { get; set; }

VB.NET

Public Property AllowGrouping As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	true to allow an end-user to group data; otherwise, false.

Remarks

End-users can group data in two ways:

• Drag a column’s header to the group panel (requires the GridViewBase.ShowGroupPanel property to be set to true).
• Invoke a column’s context menu by right-clicking its header, and select the Group By This Column menu item.

Both methods are allowed if the view’s AllowGrouping property is set to true.

Note

Data grouping requires data sorting to be performed. End-users can group data only if data sorting is allowed.
