Custom Grid Code

Anything created with the Custom Grid Auto-Code Designer is capable of having that design exported into actual c# code for you to add to you own .net library that can be loaded as an Add-In [see more] in LemonEdge.

Code

The Auto-Code designer will export the following:

• The definition of the grid itself
  • You can modify any part of this class
• The list of all columns in the grid along with any of their custom behaviour/formatting
  
  • You can modify this column list

See our API-Code section for more information about using our API to create you own grids and other UI components.

Example

As a simple example, continuing our Insurance mock entity from the Custom Entity example [more info] we could create a simple grid that holds the name and currency of our mock insurance contracts. The system would create the following code for us:
