This example demonstrates how to generate pages, groups and items from a collection according to the MVVM pattern. To generate pages in the RibbonPageCategory, bind the PagesSource property to a collection. Use the PageTemplate property to specify a template for generated pages.
RibbonPage and RibbonPageGroup contain similar properties for generating groups and bar items:
In Outlook 2013, you may notice a special menu at the bottom for navigation between different views. You can build such a menu with DevExpress controls using OfficeNavigationBar and NavBarControl. OfficeNavigationBar takes all groups from NavBarControl and displays them in one line. To bind OfficeNavigationBar to NavBarControl, use the OfficeNavigationBar.NavigationClient property. Please note that to display OfficeNavigationBar, it's necessary to set NavBarControl.Compact to false.
OfficeNavigationBar supports Peek Forms (popups displayed when you hover over an item).
To enable them, set ShowPeekFormOnItemHover to true and specify the PeekFormTemplate property.
Note that to display custom content in NavBarGroups, it's necessary to set NavBarGroup.DisplaySource to "Content". It also makes sense to disable built-in group scrolling so that TreeView can use its own scrolling mechanism. To accomplish this task, set GroupScrollMode to "None".
This example demonstrates how to navigate between views without executing code at the view model level. If you wish to control navigation from the view mode, please refer to: How to: Navigate between Views via FrameNavigationService.
In this example, the NavigationButton element is used to perform navigation. To specify the target view, use the NavigateTo property. If you wish to use the standard Button, set the dxwuin:Navigation.NavigateTo attached property:
[XAML]<ButtonContent="Tools"dxwuin:Navigation.NavigateTo="ToolsView"/>
Please note that the approach with the NavigationButton and Navigation.NavigateTo properties works only if the button is located in the NavigationFrame's visual tree. You can also use the NavigationFrame.Navigate method to initiate navigation from code-behind. To specify the start view, set the Source property.
In this example, each view contains the PageAdornerControl. This element consists of a header and a back button. As a rule, the header is used for navigation buttons and for displaying the view name. The back button is visible only when the ShowBackButton is true.
To cache views in order to improve performance, set the NavigationCacheMode to "Required".
Sometimes it may be necessary to change the layout in your application (e.g., add a panel into the DockLayoutManager, rearrange groups, or add columns into the GridControl). In this case, a previously saved layout may require manual patching during the layout restoration. For this purpose, you can use the DXSerializer.LayoutUpgrade event. This event is raised if a restored layout version is lower than the current one. To set a layout version, use the DXSerializer.LayoutVersion attached property.
Anand,
I've posted your commend in the T403971 - DXGrid column chooser - columns are showing up as blank - after column rename thread. Let's continue our discussion there.
Thanks,
Alex
In this example, it's demonstrated how to use the GroupDescription property to automatically group items generated from a collection. To accomplish this task, it's necessary to set GroupDescription to a property name by which items should be grouped.
Another solution to group items is to bind NavBarControl to a source that implements ICollectionView and specify GroupDescriptions:
[C#]CollectionViewEmployees.GroupDescriptions.Add(newPropertyGroupDescription("Department"));
If you wish to specify ItemsSource for each group separately, use the approach demonstrated at How to: Generate NavBarControl Groups and Items from a Collection
This example illustrates how to display a cross hair cursor and highlight the nearest Series point marker. The Series point value is displayed near a highlighted marker.
This approach is actual prior to version 14.1. Starting with version 14.1, use the approach illustrated in the How to bind a report to a stored procedure provided by the SQL Data Source in an ASP.NET Web Forms application example.
To allow passing a procedure parameter to an XtraReport descendant class (XtraReport1), it's updated with an argument which is used while populating the DataSet instance.
On the web page, a DropDownList control is placed, which is populated with the list of parameters.
In the example, the "CustOrdersOrders" stored procedure (Northwind database) with the "CustomerID" parameter is used, so the DropDownList contains every CustomerID from the Customers table.
Within the Page_Load event handler, the ReportViewer.Report property is updated using a newly created report instance.
Is there any "How To" for this? It seems to contradict other examples which use _BeforePrint
Is part of this example missing?
Added By: Mark D Loaney at: 6/20/2012 3:59:08 AMI've been wasting days trying to get this working, it appears that when I pass the parameters in the system breaks. I have a procedure that has the following parameters:
@OrganisationID INT = 0,
@Key INT = 3,
@WeekStarting DATE = NULL,
@WeekEnding DATE = NULL,
@DivisionID INT = 0,
@WorkgroupID INT = 0,
@EmployeeID INT = 281,
@Factor FLOAT = 0.00000
of which I only really need Key, EmployeeID, Division and Workgroup
The 'New' in xtrareports is as follows (note if I comment out the parameters passed in it works with the detault values and returns data:
Public Sub New(ByVal mEmployeeID As Integer, ByVal mKey As Integer, ByVal Org As Integer, divsn As Integer, wrkgp As Integer)
MyBase.New()
'This call is required by the Designer.
InitializeComponent()
cpM_Reports_StaffTableAdapter1.Fill(Me.staff1.CPM_Reports_Staff, Convert.ToInt32(Org), Convert.ToInt32(mKey), Convert.ToDateTime(Now()), Convert.ToDateTime(Now()), Convert.ToInt32(divsn), Convert.ToInt32(wrkgp), Convert.ToInt32(mEmployeeID))
End Sub
ie this works, but of course the parameters aren't there!
Public Sub New() 'ByVal mEmployeeID As Integer, ByVal mKey As Integer, ByVal Org As Integer, divsn As Integer, wrkgp As Integer)
MyBase.New()
'This call is required by the Designer.
InitializeComponent()
'cpM_Reports_StaffTableAdapter1.Fill(Me.staff1.CPM_Reports_Staff, Convert.ToInt32(Org), Convert.ToInt32(mKey), Convert.ToDateTime(Now()), Convert.ToDateTime(Now()), Convert.ToInt32(divsn), Convert.ToInt32(wrkgp), Convert.ToInt32(mEmployeeID))
End Sub
The proper values are coming in to the system when I put in a breakpoint - seems that the initialise isn't firing??
The code on the webform is
Dim Division As Integer = 0
Dim Workgroup As Integer = 0
Dim Key As Integer = lstFilter.SelectedIndex
If IsNumeric(lstDivision.SelectedValue) Then Division = CInt(lstDivision.SelectedValue)
If IsNumeric(lstWorkgroup.SelectedValue) Then Workgroup = lstWorkgroup.SelectedValue
Dim report As New XStaffActivity(Helpers.EmployeeID, Key, Helpers.MyCompanyID, Division, Workgroup)
rvStaffActivity.Report = report

NOTE. Starting with v17.1, you can optionally save legend checkbox state for the chart's Series collection on callbacks. To activate this feature, enable the WebChartcontrol.SaveStateOnCallbacks option. If you prefer to use the manual Legend state initialization approach, set the SaveStateOnCallbacks property to False.
WebChartControl does not cache information about Series items and data source initialized at runtime. As a result, the Legend item checkbox state cannot be applied correctly. This example illustrates how to save the Legend state into a Session variable and restore it using the Page_Load event handler. The WebChartControl.LegendItemChecked event is used to obtain the current Legend panel state. Note that it is also required to disable the internal viewstate management using the WebChartControl.EnableViewState and WebChartControl.SaveStateOnCallbacks properties.

This example illustrates the capability to substitute a default Delete menu item with a custom one, to display a confirmation dialog to an end-user.
The dialog is displayed within the custom DXMenuItem.Click event handler assigned to the corresponding menu item.
This example illustrates the approach of searching a particular appointment using the AppointmentBaseCollection.Find(Predicate<T> match) method.
This allows quickly finding an object which meets the specified criteria.
This example illustrates two-way Model Binding for different editor types. Standalone editors are located in the Editors.cshtml view. In addition, we have the FormLayout extension in the FormLayout.cshtml view. We use the simplest possible implementation for simplicity sake. For instance, in the case of standalone editors, we use Strongly-Typed Editor Types. Since ComboBox and TokenBox list editors fully support Model Binding, we also use them in this example. Other list editors do not fully support Model Binding and you need to use the approach illustrated in the E4125 - How to use the CheckBoxList and RadioButtonList editors to edit Model fields code example if you wish to work with them.

This example illustrates how to create a flexible scheduling layout with the following controls:
SchedulerControl
DateNavigator
ResourcesCheckedListBoxControl
The grid with two GridSplitters (vertical and horizontal) is used for this purpose. Please review the Grid Panel tutorial to learn more about the corresponding layout instruments.
This example illustrates how to override the default scheme colors for Windows 10 XAML controls and support system themes (Light, Default). With the current implementation, the RibbonControl header background is overridden in the Generic and Win8 schemes and has different values in these schemes for the Default and Light system themes.
Starting with v17.1, colors can be defined in code by overriding specific values in related ThemeManager dictionaries.
Note that the Dark system theme is determined as Default, so our theme manager uses the same colors for these themes in the Generic color scheme.
If you wish to do this in an older version, refer to the How to override default colors from an existing Color Scheme in Windows 10 XAML controls and support system themes (Light, Default) [Deprecated] example for a solution.
This example demonstrates how to use standalone Workspace Manager API for capturing, applying, saving and loading workspaces and shows different Transition Types in action.
You can find the general information about the WorkspaceManager in our documentation: Workspace Manager.
Note that the Workspace Manager provides a bar menu, represented by the BarWorkspaceMenuItem class to assist both you and your end-users in creating, saving and loading workspaces. This item can be added to the required Bar or RibbonControl.
This example demonstrates how to preserve the MVC Splitter layout when an end-user expands, collapses or resizes its panes.
The Splitter extension is placed inside the CallbackPanel extension. In order to save its layout after a modification, you are required to handle corresponding client-side events and pass layout data to the server. This data is retrieved by using the ASPxClientSplitter.GetLayoutData method and passed as a parameter via the MVCxClientCallbackPanel.PerformCallback method to the server side to the corresponding Controller Action method. Then the client layout data is applied to Splitter in the SplitterSettings.ClientLayout event handler.
server event.It is a very basic ASP.NET MVC application that logs into the Report Server using Windows Authentication and displays a list of available reports. The ASPxDocumentViewer is used to display the selected report.
In the example a bar with two buttons is created above a PropertyGridControl. The buttons are used to sort properties alphabetically and group properties by categories, respectively.
To change the order of properties, the PropertyGridControl's OptionsView.ShowRootCategories property is used.
