Hide grid column client-side, can other columns automatically resize

[Brian Pye]

I'm using a RadGrid, and I'm able to show and hide columns using client-side script:

 

mygrid.get_masterTableView().hideColumn(i);

But, when I hide the column, it leaves a blank space where the column was located. Is it possible to have the remaining columns automatically resize and fill the empty space?

If this isn't possible, can I manually resize the remaining columns? I've tried the following script to set the hidden column width to zero, but it doesn't have any affect:

mygrid.get_masterTableView().resizeColumn(i, 0);

I just realized that I get the desired behavior when I run in Firefox 3.6.12 or IE7. That is, the remaining visible columns automatically resize to fill the grid when I hide a column. No manual resizing of columns is required. It's only IE8 that I'm having this problem, which is our primary target browser.

Hello Brian,

I tried to replicate the issue which you described, but to no avail.
Attached to this message, you will find the code which I used for testing.

Please, take a look at it and let me know if there are any differences at your end, which I may be leaving out.

Kind regards,

Hello i asked a similar question here http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-ajax/grid/radgrid-column-select-deselect-does-not-resize-grid.aspx#2516850

What i found is if i set the ClipCellContentOnResize="false", everything is fine. I was wondering if this was a bug.
