WPF Grid Control - Inline Editing, Partial Groups & Record Selection (Coming soon in v15.2)

Thinking Out Loud
13 November 2015

Our upcoming release is going to include a number of key enhancements to our WPF Grid - the first of which is Inline Data Editing - something we first introduced in WinForms Grid a couple of years ago.


Inline Data Editing


As you can see in the screenshot below, inline editing is an alternative approach to editing column values within grid cells.

The Inline Data Edit Form can be displayed directly below the edited row or as a popup window.

By default, the Inline Edit Form is auto-generated based on column settings, but you can customize it as needed via options or completely redesign it using templates.


Partial Data Grouping


This release introduces partial data grouping within our WPF Grid Control. By setting a single option, group rows will only be displayed for rows with 2 or more matching values. As you would expect, this reduces the amount of scrolling/mouse clicks necessary to view information on-screen when grouped data is disparate.

Marquee Record Selection


This features gives users a quick and easy way to select a range of rows/cells.
