Filter Icon not visible on narrow columns

[Niki]

Hi
I'm having a problem with narrow columns, in that the filter icon is not visible: instead you have to faff around to try to select the teeny tiiny line that is visible.
Can anyone advise how to force the grid to display/give enough room for the filter icons?
It's my first Telerik grid, so there is nothing fancy going on behind the scenes!
Thanks!

Hi Niki,

I suggest you either to expand the columns with the property HeaderStyle-Width (do not forget to set TableLayout to fixed) or to shrink the filter with the FilterControlWidth.

Hope this helps,

I was finally able to get the Filter Icon visible by setting the width of the filter text box to 90%

Thanks for the other links though - they helped set me on the right path :)
