GridHitInfo.InColumn Property

Gets a value indicating whether the test point is within a column header.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraGrid.Views.Grid.ViewInfo

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraGrid.v19.2.dll

Declaration

C#

public virtual bool InColumn { get; }

VB.NET

Public Overridable ReadOnly Property InColumn As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	true if the test point is within a column header; otherwise, false.

Remarks

The InColumn property is useful if you don’t need to determine the exact element residing under the test point and only interested in whether the point is within a column header. For instance, the property can be used if you need to provide a common context menu for column headers regardless of which particular column header element is right-clicked. If you need to obtain a particular column header element located under the test point, use the GridHitInfo.HitTest property.
