[Solved] AutoGenerateColumns ordering

[superold]

Hi,

I wonder how I could reorder columns that have been auto generated.

Hi Jorge, you can use Move function of grid Columns collection.

Reorder columns using column index:

radGridView1.Columns.Move(2, 3);

Reorder columns using column instance and insert position:

radGridView1.Columns.Move(radGridView1.Columns["City"],      radGridView1.Columns["Address"], InsertPosition.Before);

I hope this helpful.

Well, sort of perfect.

I tried to SuspendLayout and ResumeLayout on the grid but I had to set the Visibility of the grid instead to have an OK performance, since the columns are visually moved and removed.

Also when some of the columns are hidden I do not know how to reset the horizontal scrollbar to reflect the new width of the grid.

Thanks,

Hello j0rge,

Instead of using SuspendLayout and ResumeLayout, it is better to use:
 

(radGridView1.GridElement as GridTableElement).BeginUpdate();

// your code goes here

(radGridView1.GridElement as GridTableElement).BeginUpdate();

The horizontal scroll should automatically resize. There is no need to take care of it.
