I have a very irritating problem with RadGridView. Look at the video: Filter box suddenly becomes Non-Editable by itself
I am using Q1 2008 SP1. The filter it seems has suddenly become non-editable, at least from the way the textbox vanishes, but if I press on any key like 'd' or 's' or 'q' then this same filter box will show up its filter textbox.
Anyone knows how to get rid of this 'weird' problem?
Thanks
Sunil

I was able to figure out the cause of the problem and come up with a solution.
SOLUTION
In my original radgrid, I had autosizecolumnsmode set to 'fill'. When I changed the autosizecolumnsmode to 'none' before databinding and then after databinding set it to 'fill', the filtertextbox stopped vanishing suddenly after typing in one or two characters. Problem was solved.
EXPLANATION
In original scenario, as I typed the filtered rows showed up. If the number of filtered rows were 3 or 4 or less than the height available for data rows i.e. no vertical scroll was needed, then suddenly the width of the radgrid increases since its autosizecolumnsmode is set to fill. And this increase in width, was for some reason, causing the radtextboxeditor of filter to end its edit operation. Look at original video, and focus your eyes on the TOP right corner, and you'll notice the scrollbar vanishes causing the width of radgridview to increase WHEN number of filtered rows is very few.. Now look at this video Problem Solved, where you will notice that when number of rows is very few, the width of the grid remains the same even though the vertical scroll bar has vanished. The space occupied by vertical scroll bar shows up as empty clearance space. The autosizecolumnsmode is set to none in the latter scenario.
QUERY
Even though I have overcome this weird behavior, what I don't understand is why the width of radgrid should decide if the filtertextbox editing should end or not?
I wouldn't be surprised if this 'weird' and irritating behavior is also shown by the latest version of radgrid.

Hi Sunil,
I am glad that you have found a workaround for Q1 2008 SP1 version which avoids the described behavior. I just only want to let you know that this issue has been addressed in one of our previous versions and it is not present in the latest version.
Best wishes,

I am using: Telerik WinForms VSExtensions 2010.03.1214.0
The filter behaves still as described by Sunil. Unfortunately the workaround does not work.
My RadGridView is bound to a Linq DataSource in the code.

Hello Aho,
Is the described issue the same as the one you have regarded in the support ticket which I have already answered giving a solution for it? If not, I would kindly ask you to send more details on how to reproduce the issue with the latest version.
