Build WPF property editors with the DevExpress PropertyGridControl — bind any object via SelectedObject (or multiple via SelectedObjects), define which properties show via PropertyDefinition, edit collections inline via CollectionDefinition (with NewItemInitializer for add/remove), group properties via [Category] attribute and CategoryDefinition (flat / Visible / Tabbed modes), and control expandability of nested objects via TypeConverter / ExpandableObjectConverter / AllowExpanding. Use when building visual designers, settings dialogs, diagram property panels, report designers, or any view that lets a user inspect and edit an arbitrary object's properties at runtime. Also use when someone mentions "PropertyGridControl", "PropertyDefinition", "CollectionDefinition", "CategoryDefinition", "ShowCategories", "ShowProperties", "ExpandableObjectConverter", "AllowExpanding", or "dxprg:". Covers .NET 8+ and .NET Framework 4.6.2+.
