Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.PropertyGrid

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

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.PropertyGrid

Declaration

C#

public DataTemplate PropertyDefinitionTemplate { get; set; }

VB.NET

Public Property PropertyDefinitionTemplate As DataTemplate

Property Value

Type	Description
DataTemplate	A DataTemplate object that defines the presentation of properties.

Remarks

A template that defines the presentation of property definitions is specified by the PropertyDefinitionTemplate property. If you have more than one template that can be used to render property definitions, you can implement custom logic to choose the required template. To do this, derive from the DataTemplateSelector class, implement the SelectTemplate method that returns a template which meets the required condition, and assign it to the PropertyGridControl.PropertyDefinitionTemplateSelector property.

XAML

<dxprg:PropertyGridControl SelectedObject="{Binding EditObject}"
                           PropertyDefinitionsSource="{Binding Properties}"
                           ShowProperties="WithPropertyDefinitions" 
                           ExpandCategoriesWhenSelectedObjectChanged="True">
    <dxprg:PropertyGridControl.PropertyDefinitionTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <dxprg:PropertyDefinition Path="{Binding Name}"/>
        </DataTemplate>
    </dxprg:PropertyGridControl.PropertyDefinitionTemplate>
</dxprg:PropertyGridControl>

Note

Both the PropertyGridControl.PropertyDefinitionTemplateSelector and PropertyDefinitionTemplate properties are in effect when the PropertyGridControl is bound to a property definition source via the PropertyGridControl.PropertyDefinitionsSource property. Refer to the Binding to a collection of PropertyDefinitions topic to learn more.
