Summary Display Modes

Summaries in cells are calculated according to the PivotGridFieldBase.SummaryType property of data fields. By default, they are displayed “as is”.

PivotGridControl can show how these values correlate to summary values in other cells, instead of displaying raw summary results. For instance, the pivot grid allows you to display the percentage of the totals and grand totals, or the absolute or percentage difference between current and preceding cells.

A data field’s PivotGridFieldBase.SummaryDisplayType property allows you to choose one of the predefined summary display modes. By default, this property is set to PivotSummaryDisplayType.Default, indicating that summary values are displayed “as is”.

See the following topics to learn more about predefined summary display modes provided by PivotGridControl.

Note

Note that if none of these summary display modes suits your needs, you can implement custom summaries via the PivotGridControl.CustomCellValue, PivotGridControl.CustomCellDisplayText or PivotGridControl.CustomSummary event.
