Sections summary

The two main sections of the xamGantt controls (grid sections and chart section) have properties for controlling their width. You can set independently both their width using the GridLength type. This type supports width specified in pixels, size determined by the content and size expressed as a weighted proportions of the available space.

Sections summary chart

The following table explains briefly the configurable aspects of the xamGantt’s sections and maps them to the properties that configure them.

Configurable aspect Details Properties

Grid Section Width

Set the width of the grid section with a value of type GridLength.

Chart Section Width

Set the width of the chart section with a value of type GridLength.

Note
Note

The control doesn’t use these properties directly. Instead it is expected that the properties are bound to in the control template so if you create a custom ControlTemplate for the xamGantt then you should bind to these properties as it is done in the default template.
