I have a custom <CommandItemTemplate> on this RadGrid that at runtime looks fine in terms of width but when I view it at design time every time I switch back to alter the contents, it's width is "crunched" up or shrunk. The table that wraps all the items in the <CommandItemTemplate> is using a stylesheet class that is sized to 100% width. But the template area itself seems to have no way to set the size.

This is not a show stopper, again at runtime is fine but it is annoying. Every time I switch to design view from markup view I need to :

Re-Select the grid (after scrolling down to select the grid when many exist on the page)
Click the Smart Tag
Choose "Edit Templates" (and why does the popup not stick to the grid but rather goes to the top of the template until you choose a template type, requiring you to scroll up and down again?)
Select the desired CommandItemTemplate in the popup smart tag window
Resize the template with the mouse to regain perspective

Now maybe I am doing something wrong but the above steps are very redundant and slow us down.

Thank you
