Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	true, if the DataLayoutControl should generate layout items automatically; otherwise, false.

Remarks

The DataLayoutControl can generate items automatically. If the AutoGenerateItems property is true, DataLayoutControl gets an object from the DataLayoutControl.CurrentItem property and generates a layout. Otherwise, if this property is false, DataLayoutItems for the current DataLayoutControl won’t be generated automatically and they should be created manually.
