[Solved] Change the column width in a GridTableView

[Mario]

Hello Guys,

How can I change the column width for one column in the Details View of a MasterView

Thanks

[Princy]

Hello Mario,

I suppose you want to change the width of the column in the childtable of a grid dynamically. If so, you can try out the following code:

c#:
RadGrid1.MasterTableView.DetailTables[0].GetColumn("ColumnUniqueName").HeaderStyle.Width = Unit.Pixel(100);

Thanks
Princy.

Thanks Princy,

That was what I was looking for

Just as a comment for anyone else running into this, I placed this code on the

grid_ColumnCreated(), since the columns are autogenerated, the columns are not available until this point, just in case someone try to reference it from the OnInit() or sort of those methods

Regards and thanks again for your support

Hi Princy -

What if I wanted to resize a column that is just a row of Select Buttons/Links?

<telerik:GridButtonColumn ButtonType="LinkButton" Text="Select"></telerik:GridButtonColumn>

These buttons will be directing the user to other pages of data.

Thanks!

Hello Wendy,

You can either set the size for the ButtonColumn declaratively:
aspx:

<telerik:GridButtonColumn ButtonType="LinkButton" UniqueName="ButtonColumn" Text="Select">
   <HeaderStyle Width="100px"/>
</telerik:GridButtonColumn>

or set the size dynamically:
c#:

RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetColumn("ButtonColumn").HeaderStyle.Width = Unit.Pixel(400);

Thanks
Princy.
