Hello All,

I have a Kendo grid where all of its columns do not fit into the grid width. 

If there is a least one row of data to display the grid shows a horizontal scrolling bar.

However if there is no data, there is no horizontal scrolling bar. Even though it is a cosmetic issue and it happens when there is nothing to display, some of my users complain and want to have horizontal scrolling bar displayed.

Is there any way to get this done?

 

Thank you!

Hello Yuriy,

By default, the scrolling functionality of the Grid is disabled in Kendo UI for ASP.NET MVC. In order to enable it, you need to define the Scrollable property.

To render scrollbars and achieve horizontal scrolling explicitly define the width of all columns in pixels and make sure their sum exceeds the width of the Grid.

You can find more information about the scrolling functionality in the following documentation article - Grid Scrolling Overview.

Hello Silviya,

Thank you for your response!

I was side-tracked by some other project and will be able to try what you recommended tomorrow.

 

Best regards,

Yuriy.
