[Solved] Extra space after the Grid when dynamically created the columns

[Qaja Mohiddin]

Hi,

I am dynamically creating columns(GridBoundColumn and GridNumericColumn). There are nearly 15-16 columns. So have added scroll bars to the Grid to avoid Page scroll bar. I got the Scroll bar for the grid but at the same time I am getting extra space after the Grid which results horizontal scroll bar to the page. Because of this entire layout has been changed.

My ASPX Code:

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" Width="650px" BorderColor="#698AC0"
                                                        BorderWidth="2px" BorderStyle="Solid" Skin="Vista" GridLines="Both" HeaderStyle-Font-Names="Verdana"
                                                        HeaderStyle-Font-Size="9px" HeaderStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center" ItemStyle-Font-Size="9px"
                                                        AutoGenerateColumns="false" AlternatingItemStyle-Font-Names="Verdana" AllowFilteringByColumn="True"
                                                        CommandItemStyle-Width="50px"
                                                        OnPreRender="RadGrid1_PreRender" OnNeedDataSource="RadGrid1_NeedDataSource"
                                                        AllowSorting= "true" AlternatingItemStyle-Font-Size="9px" ShowFooter="true">
                                                        <ItemStyle Font-Names="Verdana" Font-Size="9px"></ItemStyle>
                                                        <FilterItemStyle Font-Names="Verdana" Font-Size="9px" />
                                                        <MasterTableView  TableLayout="Auto" Width="650px"/>
                                                        <ClientSettings>
                                                            <Scrolling AllowScroll="True" UseStaticHeaders="True" SaveScrollPosition="true"/>
                                                        </ClientSettings>
                                                    </telerik:RadGrid>

My Code Behind :

protected void RadGrid1_NeedDataSource(object source, GridNeedDataSourceEventArgs e)
        {
            DataSet RebateData = GetMSRebateDS();
            if (RadGrid1.Columns.Count == 0)
            {
                if (RebateData.Tables.Count > 0)
                {
                    foreach (DataColumn Column in RebateData.Tables[0].Columns)
                    {
                        ColList.Add(Column.ColumnName);
                    }
                }
                PrepareGridColumns(ColList);
            }

            RadGrid1.DataSource = RebateData;
        }




private void PrepareGridColumns(List<string> ColList)
        {
            foreach (string Column in ColList)
            {
                if (Column == "PartnerName")
                {
                    GridBoundColumn BoundCol = new GridBoundColumn();
                    RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(BoundCol);
                    BoundCol.UniqueName = Column;
                    BoundCol.HeaderText = Column;
                    BoundCol.DataField = Column;
                    BoundCol.HeaderStyle.Width = Unit.Pixel(70);
                    BoundCol.FilterControlWidth = Unit.Pixel(40);
                    BoundCol.SortExpression = Column;
                    BoundCol.AllowFiltering = true;
                }
                else
                {
                    GridNumericColumn BoundNumCol = new GridNumericColumn();
                    RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Columns.Add(BoundNumCol);
                    BoundNumCol.UniqueName = Column;
                    BoundNumCol.HeaderText = Column;
                    BoundNumCol.DataField = Column;
                    BoundNumCol.HeaderStyle.Width = Unit.Pixel(70);
                    BoundNumCol.FilterControlWidth = Unit.Pixel(40);
                    BoundNumCol.SortExpression = Column;
                    BoundNumCol.AllowFiltering = true;
                }
            }

        }

Help me to resolve this issue.

Hello Qaja,

From the code snippets it is difficult to say what exactly might caused getting extra space after the Grid. However, I suggest you review the following help article on the programmatic creation and see if it helps:
