The gridlist control allows visualization of a dataset structured like a table. The control support several table related features like filtering, sorting and footers.
Besides the functionality for usability the control allows various styling related features regarding look and feel and line styling.
Generally speaking, this control is used to either display a table or allow users to make selections for non-singular data entries (i.e. order lines or downtime records).

Depending on the underlying type values in the cell can be formatted at will.
Numerical values can have their decimal count set by using {#}. For example €{2} would result in €4.50 for the value 4.5.
Date(time) values use the ISO8601 tags for format dates.
