Controlling the Group Load Mode

You can control where the grouping will be handled using the GroupLoadMode property of GridTableView. There are two options:

  • Server-side - GridTableView.GroupLoadMode.Server - this is the default behavior. Groups are expanded after postback to the server for example:
    ASPX/ASCX Copy Code
    <MasterTableView GroupLoadMode="Server">
  • Client-side - GridTableView.GroupLoadMode.Client. Groups will be expanded client-side and no postback will be performed.
    ASPX/ASCX Copy Code
    <MasterTableView GroupLoadMode="Client">
    and set the client setting AllowGroupExpandCollapse to true:
    ASPX/ASCX Copy Code
    <ClientSettings AllowGroupExpandCollapse="True">

Further details about the group load modes can be found in the online examples of the product (section Grouping).
