Questions about LaneGrid

Hi,
I have screen which looks similar to Microsoft Project (using Gantt Chart).

While evaluating your control, I found Mindfusion also has such an implementation in WpfDiagramming (LaneGrid).

I have the following questions on the LaneGrid.
  • Can we customize the Header like writing Templates? As far as I know, it is using yours Style class which doesn't allow templating.
  • I am trying to create some timelines like 24 hours (1 hour duration). It is showing only 10 hours. Rest got truncated. Header width is 80 per column.
  • Can I use Blend to customize the templates, which I tried doesn't show up?
  • How to freeze the header on top? HeaderOnTop is not helping.

Hi,

Here are the answers to your questions in order of asking:

1. The LaneGrid headers cannot be customized through .NET templates because they are not implemented as .NET Control objects. Instead they are directly rendered in the diagram through a DrawingContext. However, you can customize the appearance of the headers through the Diagram.DrawLaneHeader event by performing custom rendering.

2. Any chance you can supply me with a screenshot illustrating what you are trying to achieve?

3. This is not possible for the reasons outlined above.

4. HeadersOnTop only affects Z-index ordering. Freezing can be achieved with the Grid.HookHeaders property. This property might not be available in your version of the control, but it will appear in the next release.

Regards,
Meppy

Here is the screenshot. I hope, you could see the header customization and better Timeline styles.
