Property Value

Type	Default	Description
DefaultBoolean	Default	True, if grid rows are expanded and collapsed using an animation effect; otherwise, Default or False.

Available values:

Name	Description
True	true. DefaultBoolean.True has a constant value of 0, while the standard true value corresponds to a value of 1. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
False	false. DefaultBoolean.False has a constant value of 1, while the standard false value corresponds to a value of 0. In Visual Basic, do not use implicit conversion of Boolean values to DefaultBoolean, and vice versa, as the conversion may produce incorrect results.
Default	The default behavior determined by the control’s logic.

Remarks

End-users can expand and collapse grid rows using the category and row expand buttons. You can show/hide these buttons using the VGridControlBase.OptionsView.ShowButtons option, which is accessible through the grid’s VGridControlBase.OptionsView property.

In code, you can collapse/expand:

• a particular row using the row’s BaseRow.Expanded property, or
• a particular row and all its child rows using the grid’s VGridControlBase.FullExpandRow method.

By default, grid rows are collapsed/expanded immediately, without animation effects. Set the AllowGroupExpandAnimation property to True to enable a smooth animation.
