CaptionField Property

Returns or sets the name of the field used to supply the text for the caption area of a card.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property CaptionField As String
public string CaptionField {get; set;}
Remarks

When a band is displayed in card view, each card can display a caption. You can use the CaptionField property to specify the data field that will be used to set the caption text of the card. You can then choose whether or not to display that data field on the card itself. (Data displayed in the card's caption cannot be edited.)

If you want to set the card's caption to something other than the value of one of the data fields, you can do so through code in the UltraGrid.InitializeRow event. Simply set the UltraGridRow.CardCaption property of the UltraGridRow object to the text you want to appear in the card's caption.

Example
Following code illustrates how to use Card View feature in the UltraGrid. Following code turns on the card-view for the first band. All the descendants of that band will automatically get hidden.
