Grouping UI
The DataGrid Grouping UI is enabled by design on desktop and disabled on mobile, it allows the user to group the DataGrid by dragging and dropping the column headers to the DataGridGroupingPanel.
The UI is represented by the DataGridGroupingPanel. The panel is part of the DataGrid and it's visualized at the top.
For more information about Grouping UI review the Grouping UI article of the DataGrid.
Programmatic Grouping
Programmatic grouping can be done by adding descriptors to the GroupDescriptors collection. There are two types of descriptors:
-
PropertyGroupDescriptor—Uses a property from the model as a group key. -
DelegateGroupDescriptor—Creates a custom group key which you can use.
Expand and Collapse Groups
The DataGrid supports group expand and collapse operations either through the UI by tapping on the group headers, or programmatically. By default, all the groups are expanded.
Group Headers Customization
The DataGrid provides the ability to fully customize its group headers in order to achieve the desired look when the data is grouped. Go to Group Header Template topic for detailed information on this.
