Fit Columns only 99%

[Kitty]

Hi

            RadGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill
            or
            RadGridView1.MasterTemplate.AutoSizeColumnsMode = GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill

            is it possible to fit 100%?

Thank You

Hello Kitty,

Thank you for writing.

Can you please clarify for me why you think that the columns do not fit at 100%? As far as I can see they are taking the full space available. You can see that from the attached image.

Looking forward to your reply.

Hi George

Sorry, it is not 99%,
it is 101% (over fit),
because the hscrollbar can still moving, when horizoned scrolling.

Thank You

Hello Kitty,

Thank you for writing.

Horizontal scrolling is turned on by default. However, when AutoSizeColumnsMode is set to Fill, columns are resized to fit the available space in RadGridView. In this mode, horizontal scroll bar is not supposed to be displayed. Use the following code to change the AutoSizeColumnsMode property to be applicable with horizontal scroll bar:

this.radGridView1.MasterGridViewTemplate.AutoSizeColumnsMode = GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.None;

You can control the scrollbar visibility by VerticalScrollState and HorizontalScrollState properties of RadGridView. You can set them to AlwaysHide, AlwaysShow, and AutoHide (default). If your requirement is fill the columns to 100% and force the horizontal scroll bar to be shown without the ability to move it, you can use the TableElement.HScrollBar.ValueChanged event and set the TableElement.HScrollBar.Value property to 0​:

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.order_DetailsTableAdapter.Fill(this.nwindDataSet.Order_Details);

    radGridView1.HorizontalScrollState = Telerik.WinControls.UI.ScrollState.AlwaysShow;
    radGridView1.VerticalScrollState = Telerik.WinControls.UI.ScrollState.AlwaysHide;
    radGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill;

    radGridView1.TableElement.HScrollBar.Minimum = this.radGridView1.TableElement.HScrollBar.Maximum = 0;
    radGridView1.TableElement.HScrollBar.ValueChanged += HScrollBar_ValueChanged;
}

private void HScrollBar_ValueChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (this.radGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode == Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill)
    {
        this.radGridView1.TableElement.HScrollBar.Value = 0;
    }
}

I hope this information helps. Should you have further questions, I would be glad to help.

Hi Desislava

is it possible to maintain grid lines even if the grid is not full?
(example: ComponentOne C1TrueDBGrid EmptyRows = True)

Thank You

Hello Kitty,

Thank you for writing back.

By default our RadGridView does not display empty rows. Hence, it shows grid lines only for the data rows. However, you can add empty rows to the data source if the RadGridView is bound mode, or add empty rows directly to the RadGridView.Rows collection for unbound mode. Thus, you will force the grid lines to be shown:

this.radGridView1.DataSource = this.orderDetailsBindingSource;
this.order_DetailsTableAdapter.Fill(this.nwindDataSet.Order_Details);

this.nwindDataSet.Order_Details.Rows.Clear();

this.radGridView1.Columns[0].IsVisible = false;
this.radGridView1.Columns[1].IsVisible = false;
for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++)
{
    this.nwindDataSet.Order_Details.Rows.Add(i, i);
}

I hope this information helps. If you have any additional questions, please let me know.
