    I noticed a strange behavior when trying to change the column width.
    Just copy and paste the code below to get the same environment.

    Hold the line between columns and move the cursor to the left a little. The first column will reduce its width inappropriately. The cursor remains in the correct position.

    The result can be seen in the attached files before.png and after.png.

    private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
     GridViewTextBoxColumn col1 = new GridViewTextBoxColumn();
     col1.HeaderText = "Stretch1";
        col1.MinWidth = 100;
        col1.Width = 200;
     
        GridViewTextBoxColumn col2 = new GridViewTextBoxColumn();
        col2.HeaderText = "Stretch2";
        col2.MinWidth = 100;
        col2.Width = 200;
     
        GridViewTextBoxColumn col3 = new GridViewTextBoxColumn();
        col3.HeaderText = "Static";
        col3.MaxWidth = 200;
        col3.MinWidth = 200;
        col3.Width = 200;
     
     Telerik.WinControls.UI.RadGridView grid = new RadGridView();
     grid.Location = new Point(0, 0);
     grid.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(600, 100);
        grid.MasterTemplate.AutoSizeColumnsMode = GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill;
                
        grid.MasterTemplate.Columns.AddRange(new GridViewDataColumn[] { col1, col2, col3});
     
        Controls.Add(grid);
    }

    Hello Dominik,

    Thank you for writing.

    I have reviewed your case and was able to reproduce the issue. In this case when you set min and max width of the columns before actually adding the grid to the form it can not properly calculate the columns sizes. You should set the min and max width after you have added the grid, like this:
    Controls.Add(grid);
    col1.MinWidth = 100;
    col2.MinWidth = 100;
    col3.MaxWidth = 200;
    col3.MinWidth = 200;

    I hope this helps.

    RadChart for WinForms is obsolete. Now what?
