You might have seen the long awaiting announcement about our DataGrid for Silverlight http://www.devexpress.com/Home/Announces/AgDataGridFreeLicense.xml . Yes it is absolutely free!.
What do you get? Let' see...
- Automatic sorting against an unlimited number of columns.
- Automatic Grouping. Yes, since this is a Grid made by Developer Express expect support for Grouping.
- Support for summary footers with 5 build-in aggregation functions. (Count, Max, Min, Avg and Sum) and the ability to define custom ones.
- UI Elements that fully support custom templates. (Yes you can override how a row looks like by providing a custom template)
- Full animation support. Which is impossible in the standard grid.
- Lot's of optimizations for rendering.
I will blog more about each of these features of AgDataGrid and other controls that we are doing for Silverlight in the coming weeks, so please stay tuned.
P.S: LC Rocks. More on that later... :)
