Left Margin of the Grid

[erwin]

I've set up a very simple read-only Grid, and set Docking to Fill and the Grid to Fill.
However, there is a small Margin on the left side of the Grid (about the size of the scroll bar). This margin is there regardless if scrollbars are shown on the grid or not. Maybe used for complex hierarchical grids, but how can I remove this margin, so that the grid fills the whole area in my very simple case.

Hello Erwin,

Thank you for the question.

You could remove GridTableElement padding by using the code block below:

((GridTableElement)this.radGridView1.RootElement.Children[0]).Padding = new Padding(0);

I hope this helps. If you have additional questions do not hesitate to contact me again.

Kind regards,

Thanks, works perfectly, what's the reason for having such a large left Margin / Padding?

Hello Erwin,

I am glad to hear my suggestion has helped you achieve the desired appearance.

Actually, there is no special reason for the default Padding values. We will consider removing them in our future releases.

If you have other questions, do not hesitate to contact me again.

All the best,
