Width of content in RadPanelBarItem

[Simon]

I have a RadGridView inside a RadPanelBarItem, the grid has lots of columns so doesn't fit horizontally in the PanelBarItem.  By default the RadPanelBarItem expands to accommodate the gird however I'd like the grid to respect the width of its parent RadPanelBarItem.

<telerik:RadPanelBar>
    <telerik:RadPanelBarItem IsExpanded="True">
        <telerik:RadPanelBarItem.Header>
            <TextBlock Text="Grid"/>
        </telerik:RadPanelBarItem.Header>
        <telerik:RadGridView >
            <telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
                <telerik:GridViewColumn Header="Header">
                </telerik:GridViewColumn>
                <telerik:GridViewColumn Header="Header">
                </telerik:GridViewColumn>
                <telerik:GridViewColumn Header="Header">
                </telerik:GridViewColumn>
                <telerik:GridViewColumn Header="Header">
                </telerik:GridViewColumn>
                <telerik:GridViewColumn Header="Header">
                </telerik:GridViewColumn>
                <telerik:GridViewColumn Header="Header">
                </telerik:GridViewColumn>
                <telerik:GridViewColumn Header="Header">
                </telerik:GridViewColumn>
                <telerik:GridViewColumn Header="Header">
                </telerik:GridViewColumn>
                <telerik:GridViewColumn Header="Header">
                </telerik:GridViewColumn>
                <telerik:GridViewColumn Header="Header">
                </telerik:GridViewColumn>
            </telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
        </telerik:RadGridView>
    </telerik:RadPanelBarItem>
</telerik:RadPanelBar>

I have tried binding the width of the RadGridView to the ActualWidth of the RadPanelBar which gets close but is off by a few pixels due to the margin around the RadPanelBarItem content.  I'd prefer a solution which doesn't involve binding the width of the grid.

Hi

I'm experiencing the same problem. When resizing(maximizing) the application the content of the RadPanelBar resizes accordingly, but when I try to decrease the size of the application window the content of the RadPanelBar does not resize, keeps the maximized size.

Also using the RadTimeBar component inside the RadPanelBar causese it to not display intervals.

Hello Oddvin,

The RadPanelBar ControlTemplate defines a ScrollViewer that wraps the Items of the PanelBar so you can remove it to allow the content of the PanelBarItems to use their own measuring mechanism to work. This will allow the RadTimeBar component to display its built-in ScrollViewer and it will reflect the actual size of the bar.

Please give this a try and let me know it it helps.
