Among the hundreds of features VIBlend DataGrid supports rows and columns resizing,
customizable tooltips, cell styles, cell templates and formatting, full drag-and-drop
support for columns and rows, keyboard navigation, multiple cells selection, full
row/column select mode.
In-place cell editing

Cells Merge
Most Silverlight DataGrids don't support cells merging. That's not the case with
VIBlend DataGrid for Silverlight. You can easily marge grid cells by changing the
rows span and columns span properties of any grid cell.
Data Binding and Unbound mode
VIBlend Data Grid for Silverlight allows you to work in bound and unbound mode.
You can bind to different data sources like data base tables, generic collections
and more.
Hierarchies on Rows and on Columns
Hierarchical rows and columns support is at the core of our Data Grid products.
It works out of the box in bound and unbound mode. You can use it to group your
data, build custom layouts, display hierarchical data structures, and build and
manipulate pivot tables.
Data Sorting
The data grid control supports built-in powerful sorting capabilities like one-click
automatic sorting, selection of sort option from a context menu, and sorting through
APIs. The datagrid automatically recognizes the type of the grid cells and chooses
the most appropriate comparison. You can also implement and use a custom comparer.
Unlike other data grids on market, VIBlend Data Grid allows you to sort both on
rows and on columns. The sorting works well in bound and unbound mode with all possible
configurations including rows grouping and pivot tables.
Filtering
Data filtering is a fundamental feature in all professional data grid controls.
VIBlend DataGrid allows you to filter the data using APIs or convinient built-in
UI filtering options. The build-in filtering interface supports check-box filtering
as well as custom filter rules.
Rows Grouping
The group-by support displays a flat list of rows as interactive expand/collapse
groups. It works with multiple columns with built-in drag and drop, sorting and
filtering.
Pivot tables
VIBlend DataGrid is the only product on the market that combines traditional data
grid, hierarchical grid and pivot tables features in a single component. You won't
have to worry about buying, learing and integrating two or three different components.
Pivot table sorting by Label
The columns and rows hierarchies are sortable by their label text. This sorting
option is available in addition to the standard ascending and descending cell value
sorting.
Compact style and traditional Pivot Rows Rendering
The data grid control support two different layout styles of rows hierarchy. The
compact style uses less space and the parent rows are rendered above their child
rows regardless of their expand state.
Data aggregation capabilities
Support for pivot cell aggregations functions like Minimum, Maximum, Sum, Average,
Product, Count, StDev, StDevP, Var, VarP.
Automatic Grand Totals and SubTotals Optional display and automatic calculation
of grand totals and sub totals for pivot rows and columns.

nested data grids.

the row details area and use custom data templates.
