Example

The following example demonstrates how to create a FieldLayout and add it to the FieldLayouts property of a DataPresenterBase derived control. It also demonstrates how to create and initialize the FieldSettings of a FieldLayout and create the Fields that will make up that FieldLayout including the use of UnboundField instances.

XAML

<igDP:XamDataGrid x:Name="XamDataGrid12" BindToSampleData="true">
    <igDP:XamDataGrid.FieldLayouts>
        <!-- define a field layout that will match the data -->
        <igDP:FieldLayout>

            <!-- initialize settings for the fields in this specific field layout -->
            <igDP:FieldLayout.FieldSettings>
                <igDP:FieldSettings CellClickAction="SelectRecord"/>
            </igDP:FieldLayout.FieldSettings>

            <!-- define the fields for the field layout -->
            <igDP:FieldLayout.Fields>
                <igDP:Field Name="name" Label="Name"/>
                <igDP:Field Name="department" Label="Dept." />
                <igDP:Field Name="salary" Label="Salary"/>
                <igDP:Field Name="email" Label="Email"/>
                <!--
                    The XamDataGrid allows you to include Unbound Fields in a
                    FieldLayout. This sample shows how you can use
                    Unbound Fields to include calculated values. -->
                <igDP:UnboundField Name="SubTotal" Label="Sub-total"></igDP:UnboundField>
                <igDP:UnboundField Name="SalesTax" Label="Sales Tax (7%)" />
                <igDP:UnboundField Name="Total" Label="Total" DataType="{x:Type sys:Decimal}"></igDP:UnboundField>
            </igDP:FieldLayout.Fields>

        </igDP:FieldLayout>
    </igDP:XamDataGrid.FieldLayouts>
</igDP:XamDataGrid>
