Disable RadPropertyGrid Horizontal Scrolling

[Jonah]

I have several textboxes in my property grid that are sometimes larger than the grid, I don't want the grid to scroll horizontally. I added code in the loaded event to disable the scrollbar which works well. However when I click the category or A-Z button the scrollbar appears. I tried using the sorted and grouped method to disable the scrollbar but that doesn't seem to work. Any suggestions?

Hi Jonah,

I would suggest you to use RadPropertyGrid with RenderMode="Flat". Then you can disable the horizontal scrollbar in the Loaded event like so:

private void RadPropertyGrid_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
       {
           (sender as RadPropertyGrid).ChildrenOfType<VirtualizingStackPanel>().First().ScrollOwner.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility = ScrollBarVisibility.Disabled;
       }

Please give it a try and let me know how it works for you.

Hi Yoan,

 

If I can't set RenderMode to 'Flat', How do I disable the horizontal scroll?

Because when I use tab to switch the focus it's not working when RenderMode is 'Flat'.

Hello,

Actually, you can disable the navigation which comes from the Flat mode. You can use the EnableBuiltInNavigation property of the PropertyGridCommandProvider. Please check the following code snippet for a reference:

public MainWindow()
        {
            InitializeComponent();

            this.RadPropertyGrid.CommandProvider = new CustomKeyboardCommandProvider(this.RadPropertyGrid);
        }
    }

    public class CustomKeyboardCommandProvider : PropertyGridCommandProvider
    {
        public CustomKeyboardCommandProvider()
            : base(null)
        {

        }

        public CustomKeyboardCommandProvider(RadPropertyGrid propertyGrid)
            : base(propertyGrid)
        {
            this.PropertyGrid = propertyGrid;
            this.EnableBuiltInNavigation = false;
        }
    }

I hope this will work for you.
