FlowLayoutControl.IsFlowBreak Attached Property

Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.LayoutControl

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.LayoutControl.v23.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.LayoutControl

Declaration

See GetIsFlowBreak(UIElement) and SetIsFlowBreak(UIElement, Boolean).

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	A Boolean value that specifies whether an item must start a new layer.

Remarks

Use the IsFlowBreak attached property to specify that a specific item must forcibly start a new layer (column or row, according to the FlowLayoutControl.Orientation property). In the following example, the IsFlowBreak property is enabled for Item 3 and Item 6:

XAML

<dxlc:FlowLayoutControl >
    <local:SampleLayoutItem Caption="Item 1"/>
    <local:SampleLayoutItem Caption="Item 2"/>
    <local:SampleLayoutItem Caption="Item 3" dxlc:FlowLayoutControl.IsFlowBreak="True"/>
    <local:SampleLayoutItem Caption="Item 4"/>
    <local:SampleLayoutItem Caption="Item 5"/>
    <local:SampleLayoutItem Caption="Item 6" dxlc:FlowLayoutControl.IsFlowBreak="True"/>
    <local:SampleLayoutItem Caption="Item 7"/>
    <local:SampleLayoutItem Caption="Item 8"/>
    <local:SampleLayoutItem Caption="Item 9"/>
</dxlc:FlowLayoutControl>

The FlowLayoutControl.AllowAddFlowBreaksDuringItemMoving property allows an end-user to start new layers at runtime when moving an item. To enable runtime items to move, use the FlowLayoutControl.AllowItemMoving property.

When applied to a Tile within a TileLayoutControl, this property allows you to start a new group.
