dataGrid Column Width Doesn't work

[Robert]

Hi,

I have not been able to set the Column Widths of my data grid.

           <my:RadDataGrid x:Name="grdContacts" SelectionChanged="grdContacts_SelectionChanged" AutoGenerateColumns="False" >
                <my:RadDataGrid.Columns>
                    <my:DataGridTextColumn PropertyName="FullName" Width="250"/>
                    <my:DataGridTextColumn PropertyName="Phone1" Header="Phone" Width="120"/>
                    <my:DataGridTextColumn PropertyName="Status" Width="60"/>
                    <my:DataGridTextColumn PropertyName="RecentNote" Header="Recent Note" />
                </my:RadDataGrid.Columns>

            </my:RadDataGrid>

All the columns are equally spaced.  

Any solution?

Hi Robert,

Thank you for the provided code.

The width of each column in a RadDataGrid for UWP depends on its SizeMode and Width properties. In this case the Width property of the columns will apply when the SizeMode="Fixed". For more information how this could be achieved please take a look at the following link in our documentation: How to set a column's width. 

Let me know if you have any other questions on this.
