Fixed column + autosized columns

[redshift20]

I have a gridview with a checkbox column that I would like to remain fixed.. but allow the other columns to auto size.  I'm using the following code:

   gvDocuments.MasterTemplate.AutoSizeColumnsMode = GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill;
   gvDocuments.Columns["Checked"].AutoSizeMode = BestFitColumnMode.None;
   gvDocuments.Columns["Checked"].MaxWidth = 30;
   gvDocuments.Columns["Checked"].MinWidth = 30;
   gvDocuments.Columns["Checked"].Width = 30;
  
   gvDocuments.Columns["Filename"].Width = 300;
   gvDocuments.Columns["Description"].Width = 300;
   gvDocuments.Columns["DocumentTypeDescription"].Width = 135;
   gvDocuments.Columns["DocumentDate"].Width = 135;

 

If you look in the attached screenshot, there is a space between the "Checked" column and the "Description" column.  I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Hello Chris, 

Thank you for writing.  
 
You can set the AutoSizeColumnsMode property to Fill and specify the MinWidth and MaxWidth properties of the column to the desired width. Thus, the column will fill the entire grid's width and the column will have a fixed size: 

public RadForm1()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    this.radGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill;
    this.radGridView1.Columns["Discontinued"].MinWidth = 20;
    this.radGridView1.Columns["Discontinued"].MaxWidth = 20;
}

I hope this information helps. Should you have further questions I would be glad to help.

Regards,
Dess
