Gets or sets whether an end-user can open an Expression Editor for the current unbound row, using a context menu.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraVerticalGrid.Rows

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraVerticalGrid.v24.2.dll

NuGet Packages: DevExpress.Win.Navigation, DevExpress.Win.VerticalGrid

#Declaration

[DefaultValue(false)]
[XtraSerializableProperty]
public virtual bool ShowUnboundExpressionMenu { get; set; }

#Property Value

Type Default Description
Boolean false

true if an end-user can open an Expression Editor for the current unbound row, using a context menu; otherwise, false.

#Remarks

Unbound rows can be populated with data by specifying an expression via the RowProperties.UnboundExpression property. If the ShowUnboundExpressionMenu option is enabled, a row’s context menu contains an Expression Editor… menu item:

UnboundExpressionEditorMenu_VGrid

The user can select this menu command to edit the row’s expression via the Expression Editor:

UnboundExpressionEditor_VGrid

For information on the syntax of expressions, see Expressions.

If the ShowUnboundExpressionMenu option is disabled, the Expression Editor can be opened in code, by calling the VGridControl.ShowUnboundExpressionEditor method.
