Public Shared Property EnableGridColumnsUpperCase As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	true, if the upper case is enabled for grid column captions; otherwise, false.

Remarks

By default, in XAF ASP.NET Web Forms applications, the upper case is enabled for grid column captions. The following code snippet demonstrates how to disable it.

C#

protected void Session_Start(Object sender, EventArgs e) {
    //...
    WebApplication.Instance.SwitchToNewStyle();
    WebApplicationStyleManager.EnableGridColumnsUpperCase = false;
    WebApplication.Instance.Setup();
    WebApplication.Instance.Start();
}

VB.NET

Protected Sub Session_Start(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
    '...
    WebApplication.Instance.SwitchToNewStyle()
    WebApplicationStyleManager.EnableGridColumnsUpperCase = False
    WebApplication.Instance.Setup()
    WebApplication.Instance.Start()
End Sub

The result is demonstrated in the image below.

Tip

You can also disable the upper case for the grid column, Tree List column, layout group, and navigation group captions at once, using the WebApplicationStyleManager.EnableUpperCase property.
