Fixed separator lines

guest

I have a requirement to add "separator" lines to a non hierarchical grid. For example: I'm adding 10 lines to a grid (Rows.Add(BusinessObject)) and after row 5 I would like to insert an empty line. I can do this using the childindex property but the tricky part is that the user wants to be able to sort the grid and still have the separator line at a fixed location (the 5th line)

Any idea how to solve this using dapfor grid?

  Hello,

  Did you see docked rows? The idea is that they stay in their positions regardless of sort. You can add 5 first rows, then add a separator. and all of them dock to the top.

  Row row = Rows.Add(BusinessObject); 
  row.Dock = RowDockStyle.Top;

      I was able to achieve the required functionality using grouping.

      Thanks for the quick support!

  Great!

  You can also achieve the requested feature by using the ICustomSort interface. You have to compare row1.VisibleIndex with row2.VisibleIndex, but row grouping may be a better solution.
