Hi,
I've installed the WPF controls (15.2) for the first time (first WPF Project...) and I'm missing the xamGrid. Because of conditional formatting I prefer xamGrid over xamDataGrid.
I tried to add InfragisticsWPF4.Controls.Grids.XamGrid.v15.2.dll to the Toolbox, but there are no components which could be placed into the Toolbox.
What I'm missing here? Many thanks for your help.
regards
Erich
Hello Erich,
Thank you for posting.
I have been looking into your question. What I can suggest if you want to use the XamGrid is add the assemblies manually to your project. The needed assemblies you can find on the following link from our documentation: http://help.infragistics.com/doc/WPF/2015.2/CLR4.0/?page=xamGrid_Adding_xamGrid_to_Your_Page.html.
Please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any further questions on this matter.
Hi Gergana,
thank you for the soon replay.
I've allready read this article and was able to manually add the xamGrid. If there would be a possibility to get it into the Toolbox, then there also would be advantage for configure the datasource and drag and drop it onto the form like you can do it with the xamDataGrid. That would save time for configuring the columns because they are taken from the datasource automatically.
Am I right, that there is no possibility to add it to the toolbox?
Hi Brian,
thank's for explaining!
So, if I understand right the xamGrid unique features will be moved to xamDataGrid and the xamGrid will get obsolete?
Essentially yes. For example, the next major feature coming over from xamGrid is column grouping. Conditional formatting is lower on the priority list.
Thank you for clarification and the prompt answers, Brian!
