Syntax

public class GridModelMergeCells : GridModelBound, IDisposable, ISerializable

Remarks

You access this class from a grid with the MergeCells property of a GridModel instance.

Merged ranges are saved in two separate collections:

The first collection is GridRangeInfoList which allows quick enumeration through all merged cell ranges in the grid. This is good when merged ranges need to be recalculated because rows or column have been inserted, moved, or removed.

The second collection is Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridSpanCellPool that is optimized to look up if a specific cell is part of a merged range.

Constructors

GridModelMergeCells(GridModel)

Initializes a new instance of GridModelMergeCells class and associates it with a GridModel.

Declaration

public GridModelMergeCells(GridModel model)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
GridModel	model	A reference to the parent GridModel.

GridModelMergeCells(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)

Initializes a new instance of GridModelMergeCells from a serialization stream.

Declaration

protected GridModelMergeCells(SerializationInfo info, StreamingContext context)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationInfo	info	An object that holds all the data needed to serialize or de-serialize this instance.
System.Runtime.Serialization.StreamingContext	context	Describes the source and destination of the serialized stream specified by info.

Methods

DelayMergeCells(GridRangeInfo)

Marks the specified range of cells to be re-evaluated at a later time.

Declaration

public void DelayMergeCells(GridRangeInfo range)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
GridRangeInfo	range	The range to be re-evaluated.

EvaluateMergeCells(GridRangeInfo)

Checks the specified range if any cells have been previously marked with DelayMergeCells(GridRangeInfo) to be re-evaluated.

Declaration

public bool EvaluateMergeCells(GridRangeInfo range)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
GridRangeInfo	range	The range to be re-evaluated.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Boolean	True if merge state for any cell in the given range was changed.

Find(GridMergeCellDirection, Int32, Int32, out GridRangeInfo)

Returns a GridRangeInfo object that indicates the merge cell's range for the specified cell position or False if there are no merge cells in range for the given cell position.

Declaration

public bool Find(GridMergeCellDirection mergeDirection, int rowIndex, int colIndex, out GridRangeInfo range)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
GridMergeCellDirection	mergeDirection	Specifies whether cells merged in row or column (or both) are asked for.
System.Int32	rowIndex	The row index.
System.Int32	colIndex	The column index.
GridRangeInfo	range	The GridRangeInfo where the found merge cell's range is returned.

Returns

Type	Description
System.Boolean	True if a merge cell's range is at the specified cell position; False if not.

FindRange(Int32, Int32)

Returns a GridRangeInfo object that indicates the merge cell's range for the specified cell position or Empty if there are no merge cells in range for the given cell position.

Declaration

public GridRangeInfo FindRange(int rowIndex, int colIndex)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Int32	rowIndex	The row index.
System.Int32	colIndex	The column index.

Returns

Type	Description
GridRangeInfo	A reference to range if a merge cell's range is at the specified cell position or Empty if not.

Merge(GridRangeInfo)

Combines all merge cells' ranges that intersect into one outer range that spans over all found ranges.

Declaration

public GridRangeInfo Merge(GridRangeInfo range)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
GridRangeInfo	range	The original range.

Returns

Type	Description
GridRangeInfo	The GridRangeInfo with the outer range.

Explicit Interface Implementations

ISerializable.GetObjectData(SerializationInfo, StreamingContext)

Implements the ISerializable interface and returns the data needed to serialize the GridModelMergeCells.

Declaration

void ISerializable.GetObjectData(SerializationInfo info, StreamingContext context)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationInfo	info	A SerializationInfo object containing the information required to serialize the object.
System.Runtime.Serialization.StreamingContext	context	A StreamingContext object containing the source and destination of the serialized stream.
