Example

The following example demonstrates how to show sparklines in a grid column.

To do this, it’s necessary to create a RepositoryItemSparklineEdit object, assign it to an unbound column and then provide necessary values in the ColumnView.CustomUnboundColumnData event handler.

    public partial class Form1 : Form {

        public Form1() {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
            // Fill a grid's data source.
            this.customersPaymentTableAdapter.Fill(this.contactsDataSet.CustomersPayment);

            // Create a Sparkline repository item, adjust it and add it to the grid's repository.
            RepositoryItemSparklineEdit repositoryItemSparklineEdit1 = new RepositoryItemSparklineEdit();
            LineSparklineView lineSparklineView1 = repositoryItemSparklineEdit1.View as LineSparklineView;

            colPayments.MinWidth = 50;

        private void gridView1_CustomUnboundColumnData(object sender, CustomColumnDataEventArgs e) {

            if (e.IsGetData) {
                List<double> values = new List<double>();
                DataRowView row = (DataRowView)e.Row;

                values.Add((double)row["January"]);
                values.Add((double)row["February"]);
