How to change the header in girds ColumnChooserControl ?
posted

Hi all !

I'm using the UltraGrids built-in ui ColumnChooserControl.

Now, how can I change the controls header "Field Chooser" ?

My UltraGrid code looks like this: 

        private void DefaultInitializeLayout(InitializeLayoutEventArgs e){           
            e.Layout.Override.RowSelectors = DefaultableBoolean.True;
            e.Layout.Override.RowSelectorHeaderStyle = RowSelectorHeaderStyle.ColumnChooserButton; 
        }

        private void DefaultBeforeColumnChooserDisplayed(BeforeColumnChooserDisplayedEventArgs e) {
            e.Dialog.Size = new Size(250, 250);
            e.Dialog.DisposeOnClose = DefaultableBoolean.False;
            e.Dialog.ColumnChooserControl.MultipleBandSupport = MultipleBandSupport.SingleBandOnly;
            e.Dialog.ColumnChooserControl.Style = ColumnChooserStyle.AllColumnsWithCheckBoxes;
            e.Dialog.ColumnChooserControl.SyncLookWithSourceGrid = false;
            e.Dialog.ColumnChooserControl.DisplayLayout.GroupByBox.Prompt = "Zeilen ein-/ausschalten";
        }

 Trying to change the controls header via

       e.Dialog.ColumnChooserControl.DisplayLayout.GroupByBox.Prompt= "Some string";

 doesn't work.

Any hint or idea is very welcome !

Thanks in advance,

Claus

    Hi Claus,  

        The text you are referring to has nothing to do with the GroupByBox, it's the text of the dialog.  


            private void ultraGrid1_BeforeColumnChooserDisplayed(object sender, BeforeColumnChooserDisplayedEventArgs e)
            {
                e.Dialog.Text = "Some string";
            }

        But if you are trying to localize the strings in your application, you are better off using the ResourceCustomizer. For example, you could do this in Form_Load and it will affect all of the grids in your application. 

        Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.Resources.Customizer.SetCustomizedString("ColumnChooserDialogCaption", "Some String");
