<Grid xmlns:xcdg="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/datagrid">

    <Grid.Resources>

       <xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource x:Key="cvs_products"

                                       Source="{Binding Source={x:Static Application.Current}, Path=ProductsTable}"/>

      

    </Grid.Resources>

   <xcdg:DataGridControl x:Name="ProductsGrid"

                         ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource cvs_products}}"

                         Background="{x:Static xcdg:DataGridControlBackgroundBrushes.AuroraRed}">     

       <xcdg:DataGridControl.Columns>

          <xcdg:Column FieldName="ProductName"

                       IsMainColumn="True"/>

       </xcdg:DataGridControl.Columns>

       <xcdg:DataGridControl.View>

          <!-- In Cardflow 3D view, if a theme is not explicitly specified,

               the Elemental Black theme will be used. -->

          <xcdg:CardflowView3D CardHeightToViewportRatio="0.5"/>
