NavigatorBase Class
Serves as a base for DataNavigator and ControlNavigator classes.
Namespace: DevExpress.XtraEditors
Assembly: DevExpress.XtraEditors.v25.2.dll
NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Navigation
Declaration
Remarks
The NavigatorBase class is abstract and cannot be used directly. It serves as a base for (db and non-db) navigators used to move through the records in a dataset and perform operations against the data.
The NavigatorBase.TabStop property allows you to specify whether the navigator can be focused using the TAB key. The navigator button’s look is specified by the NavigatorBase.ButtonStyle property.
Example
The following code creates a new DataNavigator control, binds it to a data source, and specifies custom images for control buttons at runtime. Custom images are stored in an ImageCollection object.
using DevExpress.XtraEditors;
private void CreateDataNavigator() {
// Create a new DataNavigator control
DataNavigator dataNavigator = new DataNavigator();
Controls.Add(dataNavigator);
dataNavigator.Height = 40;
dataNavigator.Dock = DockStyle.Bottom;
// Bind to a data source
dataNavigator.DataSource = productsBindingSource;
// Specify the ImageCollection that stores custom images for DataNavigator buttons
dataNavigator.Buttons.ImageList = imageCollection1;
for (int i = 0; i < dataNavigator.Buttons.ButtonCollection.Count; i++) {
dataNavigator.Buttons.ButtonCollection[i].ImageIndex = i;
}
dataNavigator.ShowToolTips = true;
}
