Show the caption text
By default, there is no support for showing the Caption at the end of the Grid. In order to show the caption text at the end of the grid, GroupFooterSection can be used (which will be displayed at the end of the table) and cell value of Group Footer Section cell is assigned to CaptionText.
C#
//Display the GroupFooter cell this.gridGroupingControl1.TopLevelGroupOptions.ShowGroupFooter = true; //Set the caption text to be displayed String CaptionText = this.gridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.Name + ":" + this.gridGroupingControl1.Table.Records.Count + " Items"; this.gridGroupingControl1.Appearance.GroupFooterSectionCell.CellValue = CaptionText; //Disable the editing this.gridGroupingControl1.Appearance.GroupFooterSectionCell.CellType = GridCellTypeName.Static; //Set the height of the GroupCaption this.gridGroupingControl1.TableOptions.GroupFooterSectionHeight = 20;
VB
'Display the GroupFooter cell Me.gridGroupingControl1.TopLevelGroupOptions.ShowGroupFooter = True 'Set the caption text to be displayed Dim CaptionText As String = Me.gridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.Name & ":" & Me.gridGroupingControl1.Table.Records.Count & " Items" Me.gridGroupingControl1.Appearance.GroupFooterSectionCell.CellValue = CaptionText 'Disable the editing Me.gridGroupingControl1.Appearance.GroupFooterSectionCell.CellType = GridCellTypeName.Static 'Set the height of the GroupCaption Me.gridGroupingControl1.TableOptions.GroupFooterSectionHeight = 20
