DataLayoutControl.CurrentItem Property

Gets or sets the object whose properties are being currently displayed and edited by the DataLayoutControl. This is a dependency property.

Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.LayoutControl

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.LayoutControl.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.LayoutControl

#Declaration

public object CurrentItem { get; set; }

#Property Value

Type Description
Object

An object whose properties are being currently edited.

#Remarks

When you bind an object to the CurrentItem property, the DataLayoutControl generates a layout (DataLayoutItems with embedded editors) to display and edit the bound object’s public properties.

If the new and old values of the CurrentItem property have the same type, the layout is not regenerated. The DataContext of generated items is only updated.

When the CurrentItem object’s value is changed or a new layout is generated, the DataLayoutControl.CurrentItemChanged event fires.

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

The algorithm used to collect these code examples remains a work in progress. Accordingly, the links and snippets below may produce inaccurate results. If you encounter an issue with code examples below, please use the feedback form on this page to report the issue.
