[Solved] Default GridViewSelectColumn should autosize to header width

[devster]

 

 

 

Using version 2009 Q3

Given these columns

<telerik:RadGridView.Columns>

 

 

 

  <telerik:GridViewSelectColumn Header="Select" />

 

 

 

  <telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Select" />

 

</telerik:RadGridView.Columns>

 

The GridViewSelectColumn has a truncated header text, while the GridViewDataColumn autofits correctly to the header.
Workaround: add Width="SizeToHeader"  to GridViewSelectColumn

 

It would be more consistent if the GridViewSelectColumn autosizes by default.

Hello Katrien,

Your proposal has been noted and a fix is already on its way to our upcoming Q3.SP1.
The new width of the SelectColumn was changed from 35 to SizeToHeader.

Thank you for the valuable feedback.

The same problem exists for the GridViewToggleRowDetailsColumn.
