column resize questions

[Jack Altiere]

I have a few questions about resizing columns in a radGrid.

1.  When I have EnableRealTimeResize=true set on my grid, a pop up appears saying the width in pixels of the column when it is being resized.  Ideally, I'd like to show this width as a % rather than a pixel width....is this possible?  If not, can I suppress this pop up?

2.  I need to change data in the grid when a column is resized.....what is the best way to go about this?  I don't see a server event that helps me.

Thanks!

I'm guessing for my second question I need to use the client event for column resized and fire off an ajax request, let me know if there is another way.

Hi Jack,

You can use the ColumnResizeTooltipFormatString and DragToResize properties in grid ClientMessages section in order to remove/customize the tooltips shown while resizing. For example as below:

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" GridLines="Vertical">
            <ClientSettings>
                <Resizing AllowColumnResize="true" EnableRealTimeResize="false" />
                <ClientMessages ColumnResizeTooltipFormatString = "" DragToResize="" />
            </ClientSettings>
</telerik:RadGrid>

This will remove all the tooltips.

In regard of your second question, yes, you need to use a client event in order to make the changes in your grid.
