Visible Property

Description

Specifies whether the column is visible in the GridControl.

Property Type

Read-write property

Syntax (Visual Basic)

Public Property Visible() As Boolean

Remarks

  • If TRUE, the column will be visible in the GridControl.
  • If FALSE, the column will not be visible in the GridControl. The column will then appear in the FieldChooser where it can be dragged and dropped back into the GridControl, and the Visible property is automatically set to TRUE.
  • If FALSE, the column will still appear in the GridControl's collection of columns.

Example

Making a Column Invisible / Hiding a Column (Visual Basic)

This sample illustrates how to hide a column.

' Add this to the General code section  
Const COLUMN_NAME = 1  

' This code is placed in the Form_Load event  
Dim Column As GridColumn  

Set Column = wndGridControl.Columns.Add(COLUMN_NAME, "Name", 300, True)  
' Setting the visibility to FALSE will cause the column to appear in the FieldChooser  
Column.Visible = False  

' Or you can access the column this way  
wndGridControl.Columns(COLUMN_NAME).Visible = False
