Grid UI/UX Customization
Easy-to-use and highly customizable Grid
Many datagrids have been replaced throughout the desktop application with more easy-to-use and highly customizable grids. The more modern datagrids offer an array of UI customization features - so you can personalize your datagrids to meet your ever-changing needs.
Here are a few of the UI/UX customization options:
Group By this Column - Right-click any column and choose Group By This Column, or simply drag-and-dropping column headers to the “Group By Box”. Remove grouping by selecting “Ungroup” from the pop-up, or by dragging the header out of the “Group By Box”.
Rearranging Columns
You can rearrange the left-to-right order of your datagrid columns by simply selecting, then dragging-and-dropping the column where you want it to be.
Hiding/Removing Columns
There are a couple of ways that you can remove columns from your datagrid. Removing them doesn’t delete them. It simply removes or “hides” it from your view. When you hide a column, it’s stored on a Column Chooser palette, where it can be re-added to your datagrid at any time, by simply dragging it back to the datagrid.
Right-click the column header and select Hide This Column from the pop-up context menu.
Click, then drag the column header off of the datagrid.
