I have a grid with 4 levels of detail tables. I have not set the width of the grid, but have specified the width of every column using the HeaderStyle width. I also set TableLayout="Fixed" on the MasterTableView. However, the column widths don't seem to match the widths that I specified. The first level (the one that appears when the grid initially loads) is showing the correct column widths, plus 16. So if I specified 85px for a column, it shows up as 101px. The second level has the same issue. The third level seems to be doing something else altogether, ignoring the specific width of the first column and automatically adjusting the others. The first column's heading and data field are being set in the code behind, along with the width. Is this a known issue?

Hello Kim,
To prevent the described problem you should make sure that the total width of the columns (either auto-generated or declaratively set) is equal to the grid width. Another option would be to leave one column without width in order to compensate the difference and the width of the columns should apply correctly.

As I said, I did not set a grid width. Is a width required?

Hello Kim,
If all columns have a fixed pixel width, then the sum of all widths must match the RadGrid width, otherwise the columns expand to fill up the available space. In such cases it is good to leave one column without a width (e.g. the last one), so that it can adjust automatically. This is valid for grid without scrolling.
If you have scrolling enabled for the grid it is not needed to set fixed width for the grid because the mastertableview is with fixed layout and it is enough to declare HeaderStyle.Width for the columns.
