Welcome to the documentation for Xceed 3D Views for WPF. This product provides all the 3D capabilities of Xceed DataGrid for WPF but at a lower cost, for those who need only Xceed’s 3D views.

Xceed 3D Views for WPF delivers the kind of compelling and stunning 3D interactivity that end-users have come to expect in today’s modern software. Although the 2D table view available in Xceed DataGrid for WPF is the trusted powerhouse when it comes to presenting and editing data, many applications that don’t need the advanced features it offers can benefit greatly from a 3D approach. Consequently, Xceed 3D Views for WPF offers a subset of the features found in Xceed DataGrid for WPF, focusing on Xceed’s 3D views. Applications created using the Cardflow™ 3D view give developers and end-users complete control over aspects such as card offsets, spacing, and angles; camera position and angle; and field of view. Additional views are being developed and will be added as they become available. A choice of four multi-surface themes is provided: three Office 2007 themes (Blue, Black, and Silver), and Chameleon, which lets you choose the gradient colors. Finally, several backgrounds are also provided, as are textures for the 3D and 2D cards.

And because it’s powered by the same engine that drives Xceed DataGrid for WPF—the most powerful one on the market—end-users will have a snappy, responsive experience when working with data. Developed entirely for WPF and built with .NET 3.5, Xceed 3D Views for WPF is provided with comprehensive documentation that fully integrates into Visual Studio, and includes C# and VB.NET sample applications.

For developers who need it all, Xceed DataGrid for WPF provides all of the 3D views included in Xceed 3D Views for WPF and much more:

• Xceed’s industry-defining 2D table view and card view;
• 12 editors usable outside the datagrid;
• Hierarchical master/detail, and grouping with UI virtualization;
• Custom detail relations;
• Multiple themes (including Glass, Office 2007, Material Design and Fluent Design, as well as Classic, Luna and Zune);
• Rich printing support;
• Statistical rows and functions that can be used both inside and outside of a grid in any element;
• Column stretching and column widths supporting star values;
• Automatic Excel-like filtering;
• Fixed columns;

The product is available through a subscription that delivers much more than just a perpetual license for versions received during the subscription. You also get a year of great services: expert priority support and access to new versions, new features, and bug fixes.
