Is it possible to pivot the gridview so that columns behave as rows, and vice-versa? For example, when a row is added, it actually adds a column and the rows stay static.

The one piece of this that is missing is a way to put headers on these rows. Are there any examples of how to do this while implementing the posted solution above?

Hi,

You can create your own custom column to achieve this. Something similar to this demo.

thank you. The row header suggestion does work. However I have found a few more issues, or rather, limitations to this implementation.
1. You don't have control over which properties are displayed.
2. You don't have the option on which order the properties are displayed.
3. You don't have the option to have to have different column types for the different rows. For example I would want some of the rows in the column to be drop down columns and others masked columns.
I suppose the third option could be handled with the column extension to GridViewColumn, but that seems messy to me and liable to slow the grid down considerably.
