Remarks

To insert an image in an HTML string displayed in field values or field headers:

• Set the PivotGridOptionsView.AllowHtmlDrawHeaders or the PivotGridOptionsView.AllowHtmlDrawFieldValues property to true

• Create a ImageCollection object, add images to it and assign this ImageCollection to the HtmlImages property.

• Insert an image tag in the HTML string, use collection indexes to refer to the images.

• Assign an HTML string to the PivotGridFieldBase.Caption property to display it in the field’s header or handle the PivotGridControl.FieldValueDisplayText event and use the PivotFieldDisplayTextEventArgs.DisplayText property to display HTML in the field’s value.

Example

This code snippet demonstrates how to handle the PivotGridControl.FieldValueDisplayText event to dispklay HTML in field values.

Tip

The live example HTML in Field Values is available in our demo center.

C#

pivotGridControl.HtmlImages = DemoHelper.GetHtmlImages();
pivotGridControl.OptionsView.AllowHtmlDrawFieldValues = true;
pivotGridControl.FieldValueDisplayText += (sender, args) => {
    if(!args.IsPopulatingFilterDropdown && args.ValueType == PivotGridValueType.Value && args.Field.FieldName == "ProductName") {
        int categoryID = (int)args.CreateDrillDownDataSource().GetValue(0, "CategoryID");
        string prefix = string.Format("<image={0}> ", categoryID);
        string foreColor = DemoHelper.GetCategoryColor(categoryID);
        if(!string.IsNullOrEmpty(foreColor))
            prefix += string.Format("<color={0}>", foreColor);
        args.DisplayText = prefix + args.DisplayText;
    }
};

VB.NET

pivotGridControl.HtmlImages = DemoHelper.GetHtmlImages()
pivotGridControl.OptionsView.AllowHtmlDrawFieldValues = True
AddHandler pivotGridControl.FieldValueDisplayText, Sub(sender, args)
    If Not args.IsPopulatingFilterDropdown AndAlso args.ValueType = PivotGridValueType.Value AndAlso args.Field.FieldName = "ProductName" Then
        Dim categoryID As Integer = CInt(Fix(args.CreateDrillDownDataSource().GetValue(0, "CategoryID")))
        Dim prefix As String = String.Format("<image={0}> ", categoryID)
        Dim foreColor As String = DemoHelper.GetCategoryColor(categoryID)
        If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(foreColor) Then
            prefix &= String.Format("<color={0}>", foreColor)
        End If
        args.DisplayText = prefix & args.DisplayText
    End If
End Sub
