Morning!
I have a little problem that need a solution which I have not found on the web. Let's go!
I have a group of data grouped by year from today's year until 2040.
Example: For the year 2012 I must show 5 columns (A,B,C,D,E), for the 2013 the same (A,B,C,D,E) columns... and so on until 2040.
The idea is to show a grid like this (or see attached image), where year's will be :
2012 2013 2014
------------------ -------------------- --------------------- and so on till 2040
A | B | C | D | E A | B | C | D | E A | B | C | D | E
My problem is that I need to create those X quantity of grouped columns when my data is received from the ViewModel. From my viewModel I receive each row to be displayed with the information of the quantity of columns that will be created (the years) having always the same ABCDE the columns for each year. Each row will contain the identical years and quantity of information to be displayed, so there will not be any column or year without information to be displayed.
Any idea of how can be this performed?
Actually I have hardcoded everything in XAML, but this needs to be a revision each 1st of january to delete the previous year and the same if one day we display a different end year...
hI!!
My problem is not still solved. I have used as I said in my first post the group columns, but... All hardcoded in xaml when the data I get from my database is random. I mean, I can not know how many years will be displayed.
Hello,
I am just checking, if you need any further assistence on this matter,
I have been looking into your post and according to the image, that you have attached, I can suggest using ‘GroupColumns’ in order to achieve the desired appearance :
