Hi all,

I have a grid with the header context menu enabled. It is a nice feature to let the user show/hide columns.
But when a column is unchecked on the context menu, it is just removed from the grid and the other columns are not resized to fit the original width of the grid.

Is there a way to do that ? Is it possible to track column showing/hiding on server side ?

Thanks,
Laurent.

Hi Laurent,

Could you please try setting the MasterTableView TableLayout to Auto and see if the columns are automatically resized upon hiding/showing a column?

All the best,

Hi,

Thanks for your help but setting TableLayout to Auto did not change anything.

I realize I posted another thread about nearly the same trouble one day ago. I apologize for that. The other thread's subject is "Header context menu bug ?". I attached pics to this other thread to let you see the result of the header context menu demo on my machine. You can go on anwsering to the other thread if you prefer.

Thanks,
Laurent.

Hi Laurent,
                  I am having the same issue, my grid is loaded with only few columns , i set the visibility of the remain columns is false. Based on the HeaderContextMenu selection i used to display the hidden columns. But when i do grouping with the available columns the width of the columns is not looking good.The width of the grid is restored only after i displayed all of the hidden columns

I used to give fixed width to all of my columns including hidden columns too. 
Suppose if anyone found the answer to the question, please let me know. I already posted the question in the forum related to same question.

-Thanks
