<div class="markdown level1 summary"><p>Gets or sets the parent outline node.</p>
<p>
This allows to establish hierarchy of outline nodes for data-bound render object.
For instance, the following code:
<pre><code class="lang-csharp">C1PrintDocument doc = new C1PrintDocument();
RenderTable rtbl = new RenderTable();
doc.Body.Children.Add(rtbl);
doc.Outlines.Add(new OutlineNode("Document root", rtbl));
// set up data binding for rtbl.RowGroups[0,1]...
rtbl.RowGroups[0, 1].DataBinding.DataSource = myDataSource;
rtbl.RowGroups[0, 1].DataBinding.OutlineText = "Customer: [Fields!CustomerName.Value]";
rtbl.RowGroups[0, 1].DataBinding.ParentOutline = doc.Outlines[0];</code></pre>
will add outlines to the data-bound rows of 'rtbl', and will make
those outlines children of the 'Document root' outline node.
