Class GridCellTypeNameConverter - WindowsForms API Reference | Syncfusion

    Show / Hide Table of Contents

    Class GridCellTypeNameConverter

    Implements a System.ComponentModel.TypeConverter class for CellType of the GridStyleInfo class.

    Inheritance
    System.Object
    GridCellTypeNameConverter
    GridTableCellTypeNameConverter
    Namespace: Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid
    Assembly: Syncfusion.Grid.Windows.dll
    Syntax
    public class GridCellTypeNameConverter : TypeConverter
    Remarks

    In its current implementation, the cell type name converter loads all cell types from the BaseStylesMap. So, in order to make new cell types appear in a property grid, BaseStylesMap provides a mechanism to register cell type names. TODO: Is this correct?

    GridCellTypeNameConverter returns a list of cell types. If you display a GridStyleInfo in a System.Windows.Forms.PropertyGrid, you will be able to drop-down a choice list with cell types for the CellType property.
