Improvements for WPF Pivot Grid

     

While we are constantly improving the Pivot Grid I wanted to call out two new enhancements to the WPF version. In past versions the scrolling behavior could lead users to not be able to see certain types of information in the row header and the column header could get lost when scrolling the the data within the pivot grid.

We have now made the text in the column headers move to stay in view as the data area is scrolled left and right.

We have also made the text in the row headers move to stay in view as the data area is scrolled up and down when the property PivotGridControl.RowTotalsLocation is set to Far or Near. There will be no change to behavior when PivotGridControl.RowTotalsLocation is set to the default of Tree.

In this screen shot you can see the default view of the DXPivotGrid with the horizontal and vertical scroll bars at the starting positions of top left.

In this screen shot you can see in past versions as soon as the data area was scrolled even one column and/or row the row and column headers text would get scrolled out of view.

Now in this screen shot you see the new behavior when scrolled (headers still visible)

This new functionality is now available (as of v2011 vol 1.5) to current subscribers.

We hope you will find this a nice enhancement to the pivot grid for your users, please let us know what you think.
