    int rowHandle,
    int relationIndex
)

An integer value containing master row handle.

relationIndex Int32

A zero-based integer specifying the index of the relationship in the data source.

#Returns

Type Description
Boolean

true if the specified master row can be expanded; otherwise, false.

#Remarks

The CanExpandMasterRowEx method returns false in the following cases:

The CanExpandMasterRowEx method’s return value specifies whether calling the GridView.SetMasterRowExpandedEx method with the same parameters will be a success. This method also affects visual elements’ availability. If false is returned for a particular detail, this detail’s link is not displayed within a detail tooltip and the corresponding detail tab is invisible.

Note

Detail pattern Views do not contain data and they are never displayed within XtraGrid. So, the CanExpandMasterRowEx member must not be invoked for these Views. The CanExpandMasterRowEx member can only be used with Views that display real data within the Grid Control. Use the following methods to access these Views with which an end user interacts at runtime.
