I'm rather struggling with getting to grips with the data grid. I'm not thick - I've been writing software for 20 years. It's the usual steep learning curve. The reference material supplied in Document Explorer is okay once you know what you're doing but for a beginner with this specific control and WPF at the same time (long time WinForm developer), the documentation assumes a little too much. For example:
When a grid is in a table-view layout, its data items can display detail data that is usually provided by the detail descriptions defined in the DataGridCollectionView or DataGridCollectionViewSource to which the grid is bound (see Example 1)
If one doesn't know what "Detail data" actually means, this sentence is rather hard to understand.
Can you buy a printed manual for Xceed? The introductory sections don't go into enough detail and at the same time assume too much. They are also arrange in reference format (e.g. alphabetical), not necessarily a logical learning curve. Do you basically have to be fully up to speed using XAML and the existing Microsoft controls before you can start with Xceed as the documentation is based upon Microsoft's nomenclature?
Cheers, Rob.
