MultiColumnComboBox
Only available in the Plus Edition
Derives from ComboBox
ComboBox control that displays data in columns by using a DataGrid.
This control uses the DataGrid control included in the toolkit (Xceed Toolkit for WPF), which is a stripped version of the full DataGrid (Xceed DataGrid for WPF).
If the MultiColumnComboBox is defined beside a full DataGrid in an application, references to Xceed.Wpf.DataGrid.dll (from Xceed Toolkit for WPF) and Xceed.Wpf.DataGrid.v#.#.dll (from Xceed Datagrid for WPF) will be necessary. You will be able to define the 2 controls in XAML, but when trying to set some properties, the XAML Parser will not act as expected.
In this situation, you should set the properties of the MultiColumnComboBox and the Full DataGrid in code-behind. Since the DataGrid in the Toolkit is a stripped version of the full DataGrid, they will have the same namespaces and property names. A solution is to use aliases to differentiate the assemblies.
