The WPF PropertyGrid control, inspired by the Visual Studio object editor, provides an intuitive way to display and edit object properties, with the ability to sort, group, and search by property names. Various built-in data editors and custom editors help to manage the properties of various data types. Also, the category editor helps to group properties of similar data types.
UI virtualization allows the PropertyGrid to load items faster within the viewport.
By default, each property is mapped to built-in editor controls based on its data type and is automatically generated. For example, a numeric value is mapped to a numeric text box control.
Using the custom editor option, users can map the object properties to any editor control of their choice. This mapping can be based on property name or its type.
PropertyGrid has a built-in collection editor that allows users to view, add, or remove items in a collection.
Users can categorize one or more related properties and edit with their own custom editor. For example, all brush related properties can be edited using a single editor.
Validate data with the predefined editor controls. Users can define the validation criteria for custom editor controls, as well.
Properties can be grouped based on categories. For example, “User Name” and “Password” properties are arranged under the “Login” category. These categories can also be collapsed.
Users can arrange properties based on the property names, either in the ascending or descending order. You can also control the order of properties programmatically.
Filter properties with a built-in search option for easy access. In a single view, a properties filter would arrange the resultant property items sequentially. In a categorized view, a properties filter would arrange the resultant property items in categories.
Users can navigate down the sub-properties in order to edit the inner-level object properties. You can explore sub-properties to any level.
Properties can be grouped according to the needs of the users or programmatically. Groups can be expanded and collapsed easily.
Customization options are available either to show or hide properties in a business object.
Show the property description within a description panel positioned at the bottom of the PropertyGrid.
The WPF PropertyGrid control ships with built-in themes like Metro, Blend, Office 2010, Office 2013, Office 2016, Office 365, Visual Studio 2013, Visual Studio 2015, Lime, and Saffron.
Customize the appearance of the control to any extent programmatically.
Users can easily load and edit the WPF PropertyGrid control in Expression Blend for a custom style.
The WPF PropertyGrid ensures that every cell is accessible using a keyboard. Major features like sort, select, and edit can be performed using keyboard commands without mouse interaction. This helps create more accessible applications.
Localize all static default strings in the WPF PropertyGrid to any desired language.
Easily get started with the WPF PropertyGrid using a few simple lines of XAML, and C# code example as demonstrated below. Also explore our WPF PropertyGrid Example that shows you how to render and configure the XAML PropertyGrid.
<syncfusion:PropertyGrid SelectedObject="{Binding SelectedEmployee}"
Name="propertyGrid1" >
<syncfusion:PropertyGrid.DataContext>
<local:ViewModel></local:ViewModel>
</syncfusion:PropertyGrid.DataContext>
</syncfusion:PropertyGrid>// Employee class to be explored in property grid.
public class Employee {
public string EmployeeName { get; set; }
public string ID { get; set; }
public int Age { get; set; }
public int Experiance { get; set; }
}
//Create ViewModel class with a property to be bounded with PropertyGrid.SelectedObject
public class ViewModel {
public object SelectedEmployee { get; set; }
public ViewModel() {
SelectedEmployee = new Employee()
{
EmployeeName = "Johnson",
Age = 25,
ID = "1234",
Experiance =3
};
}
}We do not sell the WPF PropertyGrid control separately. It is only available for purchase as part of the Syncfusion WPF suite, which contains over 100 WPF controls, including PropertyGrid. A single developer license for the Syncfusion Essential Studio for WPF suite costs $995.00 USD, including one year of support and updates. On top of this, we might be able to offer additional discounts based on currently active promotions. Please contact our sales team to see if you qualify for any additional discounts.
No, our 100 WPF controls, including PropertyGrid, are not sold individually, only as a single package. However, we have competitively priced the product so it only costs a little bit more than what some other vendors charge for their PropertyGrid alone. We have also found that, in our experience, our customers usually start off using one of our products and then expand to several products quickly, so we felt it was best to offer all 100 WPF controls for a flat fee of $995/developer. On top of this, we might be able to offer additional discounts based on currently active promotions. Please contact our sales team today to see if you qualify for any additional discounts.
No, this is a commercial product and requires a paid license. However, a free community license is also available for companies and individuals whose organizations have less than $1 million USD in annual gross revenue and five or fewer developers.
A good place to start would be our comprehensive getting started documentation.
