Remarks

Important

To use the ReportDesigner control in a WPF application, you need a subscription that includes DevExpress WPF UI Controls: WPF, DXperience, or Universal. With the DevExpress Reporting Subscription, you can only use the ReportDesigner.ShowWindow method to display the End-User Report Designer in WPF Applications.

The ReportDesigner allows you to incorporate an End-User Report Designer directly within your WPF application.

The following code sample generates an End-User Report Designer:

<Window xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
        xmlns:dxrud="http://schemas.devexpress.com/winfx/2008/xaml/reports/userdesigner" x:Class="TestDesigner.MainWindow"
        Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525">
    <dxrud:ReportDesigner HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="20,10,0,0" VerticalAlignment="Top"/>
</Window>

See the following help topic for detailed instructions: Quick Start with an End-User Report Designer.

You can also customize an End-User Report Designer in various ways: modify context menus, smart tags, dock panels and much more. See the following article for details: API and Customization.
