Binding too early?

[Troy Goddu]

I notice in my RadGridViews that I can bind successfully to entity objects.  However, the grids are incomplete (columns missing) until I click on a column heading.  Then, the rest of the columns suddenly appear (or in some cases the slider bar shortens by half!).  My application displays only one row, so there is no need for the end user to be clicking headings.  I have broken up my data into four different tables shown in four different grids in order to simplify for the user.  My rows have 10, 22, 17, and 9 columns respectively, and I am using automatic column display. 
Is there something I'm missing which causes the grid not to display all columns right away?   This same issue also happens with another project of mine.

Second question:  What is the best way to display a single row of many columns without sliding or panning?  Is there a way to "fold" the row?
Or do I have to handle it with two grids and column by column definitions?  What are the best practices for this? 
Many thanks,
RIchard

Hello Troy Goddu,

Could you please send me an example which demonstrates this "too lazy column loading" issue?
Thank you in advance.

You can use RowDetails feature to "fold" the row. For more information you can take a look at our online examples (Controls->Data->GridView->RowDetails).
