XRPanel.CanGrow Property

Gets or sets a value indicating whether the panel’s height can grow in order to display the contents in their entirety.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraReports.UI

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraReports.v24.1.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Reporting.Core

Declaration

C#

[Browsable(true)]
public override bool CanGrow { get; set; }

VB.NET

<Browsable(True)>
Public Overrides Property CanGrow As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	true if the panel’s height can grow in order to display all its contents; otherwise, false.

Remarks

When the CanGrow property is set to true, the panel’s height will be automatically increased (if required) so that all its contents are displayed. If there are other controls below the current panel, they will be moved down to prevent them from overlapping. Note that if a control overlaps the growing panel by even one pixel, it will not be pushed down by the growing control.

Note

If the panel’s XRControl.AnchorVertical property is set to VerticalAnchorStyles.Bottom or VerticalAnchorStyles.Both, the CanGrow property value is ignored and doesn’t affect final height calculation for this panel.
