The TreeListView can display information as a tree, a grid, or a combination of both - in either data bound or unbound mode.

After you created and customized a new instance of the TreeListView class, you should assign the instance to the GridControl.View property.

TreeListView

Xaml

<dxg:GridControl AutoGenerateColumns="AddNew" 
                 EnableSmartColumnsGeneration="True" 
                 ItemsSource="{Binding Customers}">
    <dxg:TreeListView Name="treeListView" AutoWidth="True"
                      KeyFieldName="ID" ParentFieldName="ParentID"
                      TreeDerivationMode="Selfreference"/>
</dxg:GridControl>

The TreeListView supports standard data-aware and presentation features such as data editing, sorting, filtering, summary calculation, built-in validation, unbound columns, runtime column customization and more.

The TreeListView has the following TreeList-specific features:

Hierarchical Data Presentation

The information is displayed in a tree from hierarchical data structures.
Unbound Data Binding Mode

You can create a tree in Xaml or code. Nodes can be represented by objects of different types. The only requirement is that these data objects should have common fields (columns).
Tree-Traversal API

To simplify managing hierarchical data (without writing additional recursive code), the TreeListView ships with an API. You can sequentially visit nodes starting from a specified node down to the last node.

The following code snippets (auto-collected from DevExpress Examples) contain references to the TreeListView class.
