Gridview (Scroll Bar Problem)

[sam Aryan]

Hi

I'm having a weird issue with the grid view column  if you I'm using Width="*" i get a really long horizontal scroll bar.

Code:
  <ScrollViewer HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Auto" BorderThickness="0" >
  <telerik:RadGridView Grid.Row="1" ScrollMode="Deferred"     RowIndicatorVisibility="Collapsed"   CanUserFreezeColumns="False"  ShowGroupPanel="False"  AutoGenerateColumns="False"  >
                    <telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
                    <telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Name" Width="200"  />
                    <telerik:GridViewDataColumn Header="Phone" Width="*" />
                    </telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
                </telerik:RadGridView>
</ScrollViewer>

Thanks

Hi sam Aryan,

When you place a RadGridView inside a ScrollViewer, the grid will be measured with infinity. This is why when you are using Width="*", you get this long scroll bar. 

You may reference this help link about RadGridView performance.

In order to avoid this problem, you may:
1. Use a fixed size to GridView's width
2. Do not use "*" for the column width
3. Do not use ScrollViewer

I hope that this answers your question.
