Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Grid

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

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.Grid.Core

Declaration

public class TabViewDetailDescriptor :
    MultiDetailDescriptor

Remarks

If you want to display multiple Details within a tabbed container, use a TabViewDetailDescriptor object to initialize the master grid’s GridControl.DetailDescriptor property.

To populate the tabbed container with Details, use the MultiDetailDescriptor.DetailDescriptors property.

Note

The TabViewDetailDescriptor does not allow adding details at runtime.

Example
