Material Theme

From 2018v3 onwards, the default appearance of FlexGrid has changed to the material design pattern. So, for users using 2018v3 or beyond, FlexGrid appears as follows:

In order to revert to the classic style which was there until 2018v2, use the following code:

XAML

Style="{x:Static c1:FlexGrid.ClassicStyle}"

C#

grid.Style = FlexGrid.ClassicStyle;

We have also added following features to support the material design in the FlexGrid control:

• Checklist behavior
  To further support the material design, you can now enable the checklist like selection. This kind of selection lets you select the non-consecutive rows of data. You can enable it by using the following code:

  XAML

  <c1:FlexGrid x:Name="grid">
          <c1:FlexGrid.Behaviors>
              <c1:CheckListBehavior SelectionBinding="Selected"/>
          </c1:FlexGrid.Behaviors>
  </c1:FlexGrid>
  

  C#

  var details = new CheckListBehavior();
  details.SelectionBinding = "Selected";
  details.Attach(grid);
  

• Header grid lines
  Also, to provide more garnular styling capabilities suited for Material design, FlexGrid supports RowHeaderGridLinesVisibility, ColumnHeaderGridLinesVisibility, and TopLeftHeaderGridLinesVisibility properties to display or hide the individual header grid lines.
