The following example demonstrates how to change the information displayed in each GroupHeaderControl by creating an implicit DataTemplate targeting the Group data type.

XAML	Copy Code
<Grid> <Grid.Resources> <xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource x:Key="cvs_orders" Source="{Binding Source={x:Static Application.Current}, Path=Orders}"> <xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource.GroupDescriptions> <xcdg:DataGridGroupDescription PropertyName="ShipCountry"/> </xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource.GroupDescriptions> </xcdg:DataGridCollectionViewSource> <DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type xcdg:Group}"> <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"> <TextBlock Text="The "/> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Value}"/> <TextBlock Text=" group contains "/> <TextBlock Text="{Binding Items.Count}"/> <TextBlock Text=" items."/> </StackPanel> </DataTemplate> </Grid.Resources> <xcdg:DataGridControl x:Name="OrdersGrid" ItemsSource="{Binding Source={StaticResource cvs_orders}}"/> </Grid>
