Gridlist
The Gridlist control visualizes a dataset structured like a table, supporting filtering, sorting, and footers, alongside styling for look, feel, and line styles. It’s the modernized successor to Grid, adding footers, multi-value row layouts, and advanced per-cell overrides: at the cost of paging, which is replaced by row-on-demand rendering.
Events
Section titled “Events”| Event | Description |
|---|---|
| On update | Triggered whenever the grid receives or updates its data, from an initial load or a filter value. |
| On grid row click | Triggered when a user selects a row: enables actions like downloading a file or opening/copying a form for that row. |
Content
Section titled “Content”The data shown in the grid is set through the datasource property, under Properties → Grid data. Column-level formatting and styling is configured through the overview fields property in that same section:
| Aspect | Description |
|---|---|
| Header text | The column’s display text; defaults to the column name. |
| Weight | The column’s relative width. A weight of 0 hides the column, but keeps its value available for logic or actions. |
| Format | Formats the cell’s value based on its type: numeric values can set a decimal count with {#} (e.g. €{2} renders 4.5 as €4.50), and date/time values use ISO 8601 format tags. |
| Footer | A text footer, or for numeric columns a mathematical operation (sum, min, max, …). |
| Styling | An override flag to style an individual cell separately from the control’s default styling, including data-driven cell background coloring. |
