Remarks

Beside List Views and Detail Views, XAF supports a special View type - the DashboardView. A Dashboard View is used to display several Views side-by-side in a single Frame (on a single screen). Each View displayed on a dashboard is represented by a DashboardViewItem. To display its View, a DashboardViewItem creates a nested Frame, which you can access via the DashboardViewItem.Frame property. To access the displayed View, use the DashboardViewItem.InnerView property.

To learn how to add the DashboardViewItem to a Dashboard View, and configure it, refer to the How to: Display Several Views Side-by-Side help topic.
