Hi,

I'm just working on a project, where I need to edit some configuration classes with the DataForm. To wrap related properties, I implemented some data classes. With the current version of DataForm (or just my personal idea of it) those are just represented by their type name converted to string. It would be nice if DataForm could work like the VisualStudio property inspector, where complex types have a expand/collapse button and you can then edit its properties of primitive types.

I appended a screenshot from a Delphi application that shows this functionality. Is this also possible with your current DataForm build or are there any plans for updating DataForm to make scenarios like this working?

Thanks in advance,
Peter Schmidt

Hello Hans-Peter Schmidt,

Thank you for the interest! Actually we are already working on a new control called RadPropertyGrid.
It will be available most probably for Q2 2011.  One of the features provided will be grouping properties by categories.

Any feature requests, usage scenarios and feedback are always appreciated.

Kind regards,
