Declaration
Remarks
The following table lists the built-in Show View Strategies that derive from the WinShowViewStrategyBase.
| WinShowViewStrategyBase Descendant | Description |
|---|---|
| ShowInMultipleWindowsStrategy | Used by default in XAF Windows Forms applications. |
| ShowInSingleWindowStrategy | A Show View Strategy that can be used as an alternative to the ShowInMultipleWindowsStrategy. Provides different behavior when a Detail View is invoked from a List View that is displayed in the main Window. |
| MdiShowViewStrategy | Another alternative to the ShowInMultipleWindowsStrategy. Uses multiple document interface. |
By default, XAF Windows Forms applications use the ShowInMultipleWindowsStrategy. To use another Strategy, specify the Application Model‘s IModelOptionsWin.UIType property of the Application | Options node. Alternatively, you can manually instantiate the required Strategy and assign it to the XafApplication.ShowViewStrategy property.
