在Devexpress网格控制单元上添加“扩展详细信息”按钮

Question

I have a gridcontrol with a few columns. I want a way to expand a specific cell, displaying a popup with additional information.

Basically, the column is 'Message', which is of type string, and I want to be able to click on individual cells in this column and display a popup with additional details. It is a Devexpress gridcontrol.

I was thinking of button with a little plus sign to expand this view, on each cell. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

Use a RepositoryButtonEdit and handle the Click event:

private void buttonEdit1_ButtonPressed(object sender, ButtonPressedEventArgs e) {
    ButtonEdit editor = (ButtonEdit)sender;
    int buttonIndex = editor.Properties.Buttons.IndexOf(e.Button);
    if (buttonIndex == 0) 
    {
       MessageBox.Show("Aditional details");
    }
}
