6 May 20211 minute to read

Data can be populated in the GroupBar control thought XAML, C#, or XML. The GroupBar control also supports binding to objects. The following sections describe how to implement these different forms of data population.

Through XAML

Create a GroupBar control in XAML, as seen below.

  • XAML
    • <syncfusion:GroupBar Name="groupBar1">

<syncfusion:GroupBarItem HeaderText="NewGroupBarItem1" IsSelected="True" >

<syncfusion:GroupView>

<syncfusion:GroupViewItem Text="New GroupViewItem" />

</syncfusion:GroupView>

</syncfusion:GroupBarItem>



<syncfusion:GroupBarItem HeaderText="NewGroupBarItem2" />



<syncfusion:GroupBarItem HeaderText="NewGroupBarItem3"  />



</syncfusion:GroupBar>

    Through C#

    To create a GroupBar control in C# , include the following namespace to the directives list.

  • C#
    • using Syncfusion.Windows.Tools.Controls;

    Next, create the GroupBar as follows.

  • C#
    • GroupBar gBar = new GroupBar();



GroupBarItem gBarItem1 = new GroupBarItem() { HeaderText ="NewGroupBarItem1", 					IsSelected = true };



GroupView gView = new GroupView();

GroupViewItem gViewItem = new GroupViewItem() { Text="New GroupViewItem"};

gView.Items.Add(gViewItem);



gBarItem1.Content = gView;



GroupBarItem gBarItem2 = new GroupBarItem() { HeaderText="NewGroupBarItem2"};

GroupBarItem gBarItem3 = new GroupBarItem() { HeaderText="NewGroupBarItem3"};



gBar.Items.Add(gBarItem1);

gBar.Items.Add(gBarItem2);

gBar.Items.Add(gBarItem3);

    This will generate the following GroupBar control.
