NextGrid.NET is designed to be used in both flat mode as two-dimensional array, and as tree. There are no difference in grid appearance and functionality between this two modes and grid may have one, or unlimited number of child rows.

1. Introducing

When NextGrid.NET is used as "flat" grid, all rows are top-level rows. You may access to cells with using two-dimensional indexer property (e.g. nextGrid1[3, 2].BackColor = Color.Red;), delete, move rows as you have done with ListView.

2. Add child row

As soon we add new row by using AddChildRow() method, grid will contain one second level (child) row. We only need to decide to which row we will attach this child row. This is why AddChildRow method have as parameter absolute index of existing (parent) row.

nextGrid1.AddRow(3); // Add 3 top-level rows
nextGrid1.AddChildRow(1); // Add child row to the 2nd row

3. Tree column

Tree column is a standard column type which may be placed on any position in grid and it may be used any times you need. This column allow user to collapse and expand child rows by clicking on " " and "-" buttons.
