[Solved] Disabling scrolling in GridView...

[cbondeson]

Is there a way to disable scrolling in the grid, I would either like to handle scrolling myself or have it fit itself to the size I tell it.  Thank you.

Hello Chris,

Here is an example how to hide the grid vertical scrollbar:
...
xmlns:telerikGrid="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView"
xmlns:systemWindows="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls;assembly=System.Windows"
....
<telerikGrid:RadGridView systemWindows:ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Hidden" ...
...

You can check also my blog post for more info about possible custom scrolling approach.

Best wishes,

Thank you that is what I needed though now I have a different issue: the headers for my grids are not wrapping even though I have set the TextWrapping to Wrap.  Do you have to set the width of the column to make the header text wrap?  I was hoping that it would try to shrink the columns as small as it could if I disabled the scrolling.  Do you have any other suggestions?

Hello Chris,

In this case you do not need to set VerticalScrollBarVisibility - you can use Width="*" for some of your columns (or ColumnWidth="*" for the entire grid) similar to this demo:

Thank you that answers my question though setting the ColumnWidth did not work I has to set the Width directly on the column for it to take effect.
