Property Value

Type: System..::.Boolean

true if grid lines are visible; otherwise, false. The default value is false.

Enabling grid lines creates dotted lines around all the elements within a Grid. Only dotted lines are available because this property is intended as a design tool to debug layout problems. Setting ShowGridLines to true is not intended for use in production-quality code. If you want lines inside a Grid, style the elements within the Grid to have borders.
