Example
All examples in this topic assume that the grid is bound to the Orders table of the Northwind database, unless stated otherwise.
The following example demonstrates how to create a custom group-configuration selector that will return the appropriate group configuration depending on the number of items in a group. The implementation of the ItemCountGroupConfigurationSelector is provided below.
<Grid xmlns:xcdg="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/datagrid">
  <Grid.Resources>
    <xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource x:Key="cvs_orders"
                                       Source="{Binding Source={x:Static Application.Current},
                                                        Path=Orders}">
      <xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource.GroupDescriptions>              
        <xcdg:DataGridGroupDescription PropertyName="ShipCity" />
      </xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource.GroupDescriptions>
    </xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource>
  </Grid.Resources>
  <xcdg:DataGridControl x:Name="OrdersGrid"
