  • ExplainFormulaBehavior Class

    Generates a detailed explanation of the formula used in a worksheet cell (clarifying its purpose and function).

    Namespace: DevExpress.AIIntegration.WinForms

    Assembly: DevExpress.AIIntegration.WinForms.v25.1.dll

    NuGet Package: DevExpress.AIIntegration.WinForms

    Declaration

    public sealed class ExplainFormulaBehavior :
        ChangeTextBehaviorBase

    Remarks

    The following example registers the ExplainFormulaBehavior and assigns it to the WinForms Spreadsheet control:

    using DevExpress.AIIntegration.WinForms;
    
      //...
    public SpreadsheetForm() {
        InitializeComponent();
        behaviorManager1.Attach<ExplainFormulaBehavior>(spreadsheetControl1);
    }
    

    Note

    Call the BehaviorInitializer.Initialize() method at application startup if your project targets the .NET Framework and you create AI-powered behaviors in code. Otherwise, an exception is thrown.

    internal static class Program {
        [STAThread]
        static void Main() {
            //...
            // The Initialize() method forcibly initializes the behavior manager in .NET Framework apps.
            DevExpress.AIIntegration.WinForms.BehaviorInitializer.Initialize();
            Application.Run(new Form1());
        }
    }
