Evolutionary…

Constantly evolving—no other datagrid is updated as often—it has more features than any other offering and a flexible, extensible object model. It also provides unbeatable performance by handling millions of rows and thousands of columns, and integrates easily into any WPF app. It’s easy to understand why it’s the most-adopted WPF datagrid available and used by Microsoft in Visual Studio.

…and Revolutionary

Raw performance is supplemented by advanced data loading and caching techniques including asynchronous stealth paging, zero lag data virtualization, and preemptive data loading. Perceived performance is greatly enhanced thanks to a fully animated and fluid experience. Inertial smooth scrolling with rows that fade-in as data is received works in parallel with the data virtualization, and pre-loaded sticky group and master-detail headers help the user stay in context even when scrolling quickly.

Traditional non-animated table view is available as well, and still looks great thanks to the well-crafted themes that are included. 2D card view, and jaw-dropping animated 3D card view with stunning appearance are also provided.

Editing, Printing, Exporting

Xceed DataGrid for WPF features rich in-place editing with a full complement of flexible, themed, and themable editor controls for all kinds of data types. Provides all the mouse and keyboard interactivity necessary for efficient data entry. Rich printing allows for easy report creation, and exporting lets Excel lovers access the data in that tool if needed. Flexible filtering and powerful sorting capabilities let users find and visualize data quickly, and persist/restore features let them keep their setups.

Grouping, Master-Detail

Supports multi-level grouping with all the related features, as well as master-detail hierarchy with a single-scrollbar approach for the cleanest user experience.

Themes

Xceed DataGrid for WPF can integrate with many existing applications’ look and feel, thanks to the variety of included themes. Windows 10, Metro, Office, and custom themes are included. All are meticulously crafted.

Professional Grade

MVVM support, script-based testing support through UI automation, detailed documentation, available full source code, a responsive support team to answer your questions, and a development team that works full time on just this one control ensures your mission-critical application will be made to the highest standards and on time.

The only datagrid with asynchronous data virtualization and modern smooth scrolling mechanics: your grid feels fast even with remote data sources!

  • Container recycling also performed for improved scrolling speed.
  • CLS compliant, uses no unsafe blocks. XBAP-compatible version available.
  • Based on a flexible and extensible object model, with modular and reusable visual elements.
  • Can be used in conjunction with the MVVM and MVC programming patterns. MVVM support greatly improved as of v6.2.
  • Supports UI Automation covering many scenarios and enabling the use of script-based testing and assistive technologies.
  • The datagrid’s cells are true WPF content controls, so they can contain anything.
  • Supports the WPF command infrastructure, for example letting you map a toolbar button to “enter edit” in a cell.

  • Triggers meaningful edit events for both rows and cells.
  • Manages “null” and “DbNull” values.
  • Any portion of the grid can be made read-only.
  • The cells in a column can be non-focusable when read-only, so they can’t be selected with either the mouse or the keyboard.
  • Lets users see their data in a master-detail hierarchy.
  • The single-scrollbar approach used in detail grids provides a more professional, integrated master/detail experience than the awkward scrollbar-within-scrollbar approach used by competing datagrids.

  • The grid automatically picks the correct type depending on the data type of the column.
  • Fully visual approach: Powerful designers help make development faster and easier.
  • Extensibility: All controls can be extended to implement custom features, appearance, and behavior.
  • Data virtualization (sometimes called “virtual mode” or “lazy loading”) vastly improves performance and reduces memory usage, especially when working with large data sources, loading data only when it’s needed. Also supports grouping and data sources implementing IQueryable (LINQ). (See it in action!)
  • Because it’s asynchronous, the data virtualization implementation decouples the UI from the data source, which keeps the application responsive while data is being retrieved. It also supports caching, pre-emptive data loading, and delayed triggering of events to avoid needless querying during scrolling.

  • Filtering (auto filtering and filter row) in virtualized collection view, letting you combine the advantage of a data virtualization performance boost and the flexibility of filtering.
  • Filter row supports columns with custom types.
  • Special row type for grid and group headers and footers that lets you bind to, and display, additional data sources.
  • Indicator glyphs let end-users know when virtualized data is being loaded and committed, and when there has been an error.
  • Support for Entity Framework data sources, making the developer’s job easier when he or she must work with different types of data sources, as there is less code to write.

  • Provides column virtualization, which allows you to work with a large number of columns while keeping performance reasonable.
  • Inserting records into non-IBindingList sources.
  • Easy binding to XML data sources.
  • Excel-like end-user automatic filtering, which provides a drop-down box in the column header, allowing end-users to filter by one or more items, on a per-column basis. New events for auto- filter changes allow for improved control.
  • Custom CollectionView that provides fine-grained and efficient control over its underlying data source.
  • Fully supports WPF data binding.
  • Displays, edits, and works with bound and unbound data.
  • Directly supports unbound columns, allowing for example the display of static information such as a delete button for each row, etc.
  • Supports unbound data fields, which facilitates the use of calculated columns.
  • Custom key-value mappings, which lets you map any kind of value or object to fields in the data that represent keys, such as mapping an employee first and last name fields to an integer ID field in an employee database.
  • Can be bound directly to an array of simple types such as String, Decimal, DateTime, TimeSpan, Guid, or Primitive (e.g., SByte, Byte, Int32, etc.), and will show the value of those types in one column.
  • Automatically obtains and synchronizes bound data from any .NET source, including jagged arrays, any object that implements IListSource or IList, and any ADO.NET DataSet, DataTable, DataView, or DataViewManager object.
