Unbound Options Editor

The XtraVerticalGrid provides an extremely easy way to build option editors. Instead of placing numerous editor controls with corresponding labels and re-aligning them each time something has to be changed, you can use a single VGridControl component. It automatically aligns label-editor pairs one under another. This is a much more elegant solution, which is heavily used in Visual Studio's option editors, for instance.

If your objective is to build this type of user interface, you may not have a data source object, and if you use the XtraVerticalGrid, you don't have to worry about it. Simply add rows with appropriate editors to your VGridControl component. Data will be stored in the vertical grid's internal storage.
