This ticket https://supportcenter.devexpress.com/ticket/details/s139747
shows how to modify the column captions in the Customization Form in detail views in XAF.Win.
Is there a relatively simple way to achieve the same functionality in the Customization Form for list views in XAF.Win?
(side notes)
The controller from the referenced ticket can be extended also to list views, but then (View as CompositeView).LayoutManager is not an instance of WinLayoutManager class (which has a useful ItemCreated event handler) but an instance of WinSidePanelLayoutManager. So that seems to be a dead end.
Hello,
If I correctly understand it, you wish to change column names in a grid control column chooser. Although XAF doesn't have a mechanism to accomplish this task, you can access the underlying grid control and use its API to change these captions. The following article should help you with accessing the grid control in an XAF app: Access Grid Control Properties.
To give you a more precise solution, we need to know what grid control you are using. Please specify your app's technology (ASP.NET or WinForms) so that we can pass this question on to the corresponding team.
If I misunderstood your requirements, describe them in greater detail.
Thanks,
Andrey
Hi Andrey, sorry if I wasn't clear. I have rephrased my initial question.
