Hi Ton,
Thank you for reaching out!
Please, note that since your question is regarding the XamDataGrid, which is part of the Ultimate UI for WPF product, we recommend creating threads in its dedicated WPF forum here. This is to ensure better traceability and categorization of the forum discussions. Thank you for understanding.
To address your question about the Control Configurator extension, I am afraid that according to our Supported Environments page, under “Productivity Tools”, I determined that Control Configurators are supported for Visual Studio up to version 2017, and additionally for Windows up to version 10. Having this in mind, it appears that the tool is not under active support.
If you would like to eventually have continued support for it, what I can currently suggest is logging a feature request in our WPF ideas site here.
Lastly, since the control configurator is not available, if you need assistance with setting up the XamDataGrid, please, do not hesitate to post new forum questions in the WPF forum, or to create private support cases, so that we can assist with implementing your requirements in the context of the grid. Additionally, our online documentation on the XamDataGrid provides all details about the available features and how they can be configured.

Hi,
I find a little bit strange that on the current site Infragistics speaks about configurators which are not supported anymore for the current vs version 2022. Also i found out that all the wpf examples are targeted to .net framework 4.5 which i also not supported anymore.
I thought i bought a package which could help me to make development easier but it gives a lot off struggle this way.
i would like to express my dissapointment onthese things.
Maybe other packages are more up to date and easier to work with

I understand your concern and I can assure you that the Ultimate UI for WPF product is in active support. The samples within the Browser indeed target the mentioned version of .NET Framework, nevertheless, all subsequent versions up to 4.8 are supported as well. Additionally, the product supports .NET (5,6,7) and is to be maintained for future versions.
However, the “Productivity Tools” , while related to the Ultimate UI product, are not part of it. Unfortunately, it seems they are not under active development, possibly due to prioritization. The main page of their documentation section links the Supported Environments Page for completeness as well. As for the reasons behind this, what I can say is that the global trend is rather inclined towards cross-platform, mobile and web application solutions these days. Other developer tools that are currently actively developed in Infragistics are Ignite UI for Angular, Blazor, Web Components, React, the App Builder and many more.
Regarding the ease of use of the components, they are designed with primarily this in mind, meaning simplicity both for developers and end-users. We strive to provide as detailed a documentation as possible and are always ready to assist you with any implementation questions via our forums and support requests system.
In conclusion, we appreciate your feedback and interest in our products and services!
