MaxCardAreaRows Property

Returns or sets the maximum number of cards displayed in the vertical dimension within the card area.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public Property MaxCardAreaRows As Integer
public int MaxCardAreaRows {get; set;}
Remarks

When a band is in card view mode, the card area is the container for the cards that are displayed. The vertical size of the card area is fixed (the card area only scrolls horizontally) but it can be changed by the user. Clicking the bottom edge of the card area and dragging resizes the card area's vertical dimension.

The cards in the card area will re-arrange themselves when it is resized. By default, the control will display as many rows of cards as will fit in the space, based on the size of a card with all fields visible. Using the MaxCardAreaRows property, you can limit the number of rows of cards that will be displayed. Once the maximum number of rows are visible, further expanding the height of the card area will only reveal more blank space.

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.
