Frozen Column and hidden columns not working

[Josh]

Hi,

I am having the issue with the frozen column not working when I hide the SelectFields column.

code is as follows:
<ClientSetting>
<Scrolling AllowScroll="true" UseStaticHeaders="True" SaveScrollPosition="True" FrozenColumnsCount="2" />
</ClientSettings>

 <GroupByExpressions>
 <telerik:GridGroupByExpression>
<SelectFields>
<telerik:GridGroupByField FieldName="region_name" HeaderText="region"/>
</SelectFields>
 <GroupByFields>
<telerik:GridGroupByField FieldName="region_id" SortOrder="Ascending" />
 </GroupByFields>
   </telerik:GridGroupByExpression>
  </GroupByExpressions>

it is all working fine until I do this in the code behind:
grdResult.MasterTableView.GetColumnSafe("region_name").Display = false;

Then the frozen column is not working, but horizontal scroll is still there..except all of the columns are moving now.

Advice please.  Need it asap...

Cheers
Josh

Hi Josh,

Can you try hiding the column using the Visible property?

grdResult.MasterTableView.GetColumnSafe("region_name").Visible= false;

Thanks
Princy.

Hi Princy,

Thanks for the reply,
but I have tried both scenarios Display and Visible...both producing the same result...

Cheers

Ok I think I found the problem

It is still a bug with the horizontal scroll/frozen column.

Basically, it will work only on certain grid width and browser width.  When I ran it on my browser fully expanded, the problem occurs, when I minimize and make my browser smaller, it is working fine.

So I reckon the problem is with some calculation of the screen size? As my grid width = 100%;

To aid reproducing the error, my screen resolution is 1920x1200.  My Grid width is 100% in a framed window on the right hand side, left frame 60px width.  My headerstyle width is 150px, with a total of 14 columns, happens after I hide the 4th column, (so 10 showing, 4 hidden).  header/cell padding = 2px 2px 2px 2px.

Please confirm?

Cheers,
Josh

I get a problem like that too.
 i init the columns at server,and some of them display is false,but if i do Frozen column things,all the column is display on the FireFox.
and the 

UseStaticHeaders  = true make the page align not well on the IE.

Hi,

I have prepared a small sample with a column that has Display=false and the Grid itself is using Static Headers. It behaves as expected under IE and FireFox. Give it a try and let me know if it meets your requirements or if there is something I am leaving out.

hi .
my problem as fellow: i have to init all my columns on  the server side.some them display = 'false'.
every column fixed width like '100px',and my grid can't fix width.

one: how can the grid show a scroll bar when the page got 100%,but not the  page show a scroll bar itself.
two: the strange thing is if i do horizontal scroll ,some columns should display
disappeared on IE,and all the display = 'false' columns displayed on firefox.

i hope you can understand what i mean.

can you do a example like that for me ?thank you .

Hello,

I have prepared a small sample which hides a column using Visible=false instead, but the end result should be what you need. Try it and let us know what you think.

hi Pavel

Thanks for your help!

But I need  some data in the hidden columns !

Hi Niko,

In order to retrieve values from the columns marked with Visible = false consider adding those columns to the ClientDataKeyNames array of the master table and fetch them using the getDataKeyValue() method for the corresponding GridDataItem.

This online demo of the product illustrates the approach in question.
