BandedGridView.Assign(BaseView, Boolean) Method

Copies properties and, optionally, event handlers from the View passed as a parameter.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraGrid.Views.BandedGrid

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraGrid.v21.2.dll

NuGet Packages: DevExpress.Win.Design, DevExpress.Win.Grid

Declaration

C#

public override void Assign(
    BaseView v,
    bool copyEvents
)

VB.NET

Public Overrides Sub Assign(
    v As BaseView,
    copyEvents As Boolean
)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
v	BaseView	A BaseView descendant representing a View whose properties and event handlers are copied. If null (Nothing in Visual Basic), the method does nothing.
copyEvents	Boolean	true if event handlers should be copied; otherwise, false.

Remarks

This method calls the base GridView.Assign method and then copies the properties and event handlers specific to the BandedGridView class. Note that the current View’s column collection is cleared before copying columns.

Note

If you copy settings to a grid control’s View before this grid’s data source is initialized, certain column settings (e.g., GridColumn.UnboundExpression of unbound columns) do not automatically take effect. You can use one of following solutions to resolve the issue:

• Set the target grid’s data source after the Assign method is called.
• Call the target View’s View.DataController.RePopulateColumns method after the Assign method is called.
