Type	Description

Remarks

Use this property to customize the List Editor’s control. To do this, handle the Controller‘s ViewController.ViewControlsCreated event as shown below:

C#

using DevExpress.ExpressApp;
using DevExpress.ExpressApp.Editors;
using DevExpress.ExpressApp.Win.Editors;
using DevExpress.XtraGrid;
// ...
public class MyViewController : ViewController<ListView> {
    protected override void OnViewControlsCreated() {
        base.OnViewControlsCreated();
        GridListEditor editor = (GridListEditor)View.Editor;
        GridControl grid = (GridControl)editor.Control;
    }
    // ...
}

VB.NET

Imports DevExpress.ExpressApp
Imports DevExpress.ExpressApp.Editors
Imports DevExpress.ExpressApp.Win.Editors
Imports DevExpress.XtraGrid
' ...
Public Class MyViewController
    Inherits ViewController(Of ListView)
      Protected Overrides Sub OnViewControlsCreated()
            MyBase.OnViewControlsCreated()
            Dim editor As GridListEditor = CType(View.Editor, GridListEditor)
            Dim grid As GridControl = CType(editor.Control, GridControl)
      End Sub
      ' ...
End Class

If you need to execute a custom action after a List Editor’s control has been created, handle the ListEditor.ControlsCreated event.

When deriving from the ListEditor class, a List Editor’s control customization should be performed in the CreateControlsCore method after the control is created (see ListEditor).
