XAF - Add a Command Column to a GridListEditor (an Unbound Column with a Custom Action)

This example adds an unbound column to the GridControl in a List View. Column cells contain buttons that invoke custom actions. When a user clicks a button, the Action obtains the selected Order object and toggles the value of the Active property.

The following image demonstrates the result:

Implementation Details

1. In the Order class, declare a public SimpleBusinessAction method that toggles the Active property.
2. Create a new unbound column and configure its editor. Add the column to the GridControl. For more information about GridControl customization, refer to the following documentation topic: Data Grid.

Note
For more information on how to implement an inline Action in an ASP.NET Core Blazor or ASP.NET Web Forms application, refer to the following documentation topic: How to: Add a Grid Column with an Action (ASP.NET Core Blazor and ASP.NET Web Forms).
