Gridview BestFitColumns

[Ramius]

I use an unbound radgridview. After initialization of the columns i have an empty radgridview.

When i now call radgridview1.MasterGridViewTemplate.BestFitColumns( );

then the column header is ignored in the calculation of the best size for the columns and all columns are shrunken to a few pixels.

Kind Regards,

Ramius

Hi Ramius,

When there are no rows in RadGridView it uses the header text to determine the optimal column width. If it is empty, the column will shrink to its minimal width. Please, could you confirm that this is the case? If not, send us a small application that reproduces the issue. This will help us to locate it and address it for the next release.

I am looking forward to your reply.

Kind regards,

Hello Jack,

no i can't confirm this. 

When i expand a shrunken column i can see the column header text.

I will send you an example.

I had switch out this line of code:

gridFileVersions.MasterGridViewTemplate.BestFitColumns();

with this one:

gridFileVersions.MasterGridViewTemplate.AutoSizeColumnsMode = GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill;

in order for my columns to autosized after upgrading from the Q2 2009 release to the Q3 2009 Beta.
