IconSetFormatCondition Class

Represents an icon set format condition.

Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.PivotGrid

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.PivotGrid.v24.1.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.PivotGrid

Declaration

public class IconSetFormatCondition :
    IndicatorFormatConditionBase

Remarks

An icon set format allows you to classify data cells into several ranges separated by threshold values, and display a specific icon in a cell according to the range to which this cell value belongs. The number of elements in the icon set corresponds to the number of ranges. The images below demonstrate examples of applying IconSetFormatCondition formats. For example, an upward green triangle corresponds to positive values and a downward red triangle corresponds to negative values.

Conditional Formatting - IconSet

The IconSetFormatCondition class is inherited from the FormatConditionBase base class and represents an icon set format condition. To apply the condition, create a new IconSetFormatCondition instance, specify its parameters and add it to the PivotGridControl.FormatConditions collection.

For each IconSetFormatCondition object you can select one of the predefined icons or apply a custom icon.

The following code sample shows how to apply the IconSet format condition with the predefined format.

using DevExpress.Xpf.PivotGrid;

public MainWindow()
{
    // ...

    // Creates a new IconSetFormatCondition instance.
    IconSetFormatCondition formatRuleIconSet = new IconSetFormatCondition();

    // Configures the IconSet format condition.
    formatRuleIconSet.ApplyToSpecificLevel = true;
    formatRuleIconSet.ColumnName = "fieldQuarter";
    formatRuleIconSet.RowName = "fieldSalesPerson";
    formatRuleIconSet.MeasureName = "fieldExtendedPrice";
    formatRuleIconSet.PredefinedFormatName = "Arrows3ColoredIconSet";

    // Adds this instance to the FormatConditionCollection.
    pivotGridControl1.AddFormatCondition(formatRuleIconSet);
}

Example

This example shows how to add format conditions to WPF Pivot Grid Control.

  • The Data Bar conditional formatting is applied to the ‘Extended Price’ measure and intersection of the ‘Sales Person’ and ‘Quarter’ fields. This condition formats data cells with a predefined orange gradient data bar.
  • The Top Bottom Rule conditional formatting is applied to the ‘Quantity’ measure and intersection of the ‘Sales Person’ and ‘Quarter’ fields. This condition formats data cells whose values are above average with green text and light green fill.
  • The Icon Set conditional formatting is applied to the ‘Extended Price’ measure and intersection of the ‘Sales Person’ and ‘Year’ fields. This condition displays a specific icon in a cell according to the range to which this cell value belongs.

The image below shows the result.
