Description

SaveOptions is a TSaveOptions property with the set of options enabled when saving values in the grid to a file or stream. The options indicate whether design-time information, column attributes, cell content and positions are included in the values save for the grid control. The TSaveOption values included in or excluded from the property affect the following:

soDesign

Design-time information for the control, including: column count, row count, number of fixed columns and rows, default column width, default row width and height, color, column definitions (when enabled in the control), and row heights with non-default values. Also includes the settings in the Options and Options2 properties for the control.

soPosition

Run-time values for the top and left coordinates for the grid, and the current column and row number.

soRangeSelect

Requires the soPosition option. Stores the left, top, bottom, and right coordinates for the range in the Selection property.

soContent

Stores the UTF-8-encoded text for each of the cells in the grid control.

The default values in SaveOptions are not assigned in TCustomGrid, and must be provided in a descendent class like TCustomStringGrid.

SaveOptions also determines the data available and processed when loading grid information in the LoadFromFile or LoadFromStream methods.
