[Solved] Rad Grid Column width

[Simon Channell]

I've set up a grid with vertical headers (see attached screenshot) but I can't resize the column width.
Should I be changing it in code or in the style sheet?

Hello Simon,

You will need to enable the AllowColumnResize property. Please check out the following demo for an actual example:

Hope this helps.

I have found that if I enable the "Allow columnResize" property I get the strange effect you can see in the attached screenshot.

Below is the code for intialising the Grid which is performed in the "page_init" (This gives the headings which look ok)

RadGrid1.ID = "RadGrid1"
        RadGrid1.EnableEmbeddedSkins = "False"
        RadGrid1.Width = Unit.Percentage(100)
        RadGrid1.PageSize = 5
        RadGrid1.AllowPaging = True
        RadGrid1.AllowSorting = False
        RadGrid1.PagerStyle.Mode = GridPagerMode.NextPrevAndNumeric
        RadGrid1.AutoGenerateColumns = False
        RadGrid1.MasterTableView.EnableColumnsViewState = True
        RadGrid1.MasterTableView.PageSize = 15
        RadGrid1.ClientSettings.Resizing.AllowColumnResize = False
        RadGrid1.ClientSettings.Resizing.AllowResizeToFit = False
        RadGrid1.ClientSettings.Resizing.EnableRealTimeResize = False
        RadGrid1.ClientSettings.Resizing.ResizeGridOnColumnResize = False

This code is used to create the columns

 

 

For x = 1 To numcols
          colnum = x
          column1 = New GridBoundColumn
          column1.UniqueName = "column" + x.ToString
          column1.DataField = "mark" + x.ToString
          If colnum Mod 2 = 0 Then
              column1.ItemStyle.CssClass = "csscol2"
              column1.HeaderStyle.CssClass = "cssHead3"

          Else
              column1.ItemStyle.CssClass = "csscol1"
              column1.HeaderStyle.CssClass = "cssHead"

          End If
          column1.ItemStyle.Width = 300 / numcols
          column1.HeaderStyle.Width = 300 / numcols
          column1.HeaderStyle.Height = 100
          column1.HeaderText = "Assessment " + x.ToString
          RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(column1)

      Next
