Hi,
I am using a radgridview , in which i have few gridviewdatacolumn , i am adding a group descriptor for one of the column , and my requirement is, that column should be hidden from radgridview since i have grouped based on that, 
further GridViewColumn.ShowColumnWhenGrouped Property is not available to me as i am using an older version of telerik Dll, is their any other way to solve this problem?

 following is the xaml of code for more clarity, so i want column Element Path to be hidden as it is used in group descriptor -

 <telerik:RadGridView.Columns>
                                                <telerik:GridViewDataColumn  IsReadOnly="True"  IsGroupable="True"  Header="Element Path" DataMemberBinding="{Binding ElementPath}" Focusable="False" Width="Auto" TextAlignment="Left" IsEnabled="False"/>
                                                <telerik:GridViewDataColumn  IsReadOnly="True"  IsGroupable="True"  Header="Category" DataMemberBinding="{Binding CategoryName}" Focusable="False" Width="Auto" TextAlignment="Left" IsEnabled="False" />
                                                <telerik:GridViewDataColumn IsReadOnly="True"  IsGroupable="False"  Header="Name" DataMemberBinding="{Binding Name}" Width="Auto" Focusable="False" TextAlignment="Left" IsEnabled="False" />
                                                <telerik:GridViewDataColumn IsReadOnly="True"  IsGroupable="False"  Header="Description" HeaderTextAlignment="Left" DataMemberBinding="{Binding Description}" Focusable="False" Width="200" TextAlignment="Left" IsEnabled="False" />

Hello,

You can set the grouped column be not visible once a Grouping event with GroupingEventAction.Place is raised. For example:

private void clubsGrid_Grouping(object sender, GridViewGroupingEventArgs e)
      {
          if (e.Action == GroupingEventAction.Place)
          (e.GroupDescriptor as ColumnGroupDescriptor).Column.IsVisible = false;
      }

Hi,

Using grouping event i can hide the visibility,  once i add( drag and drop the GridViewcolumn header ) or remove it from group panel , but since column group descriptor shows gridviewcolumn to be grouped as the window opens , i need a solution which hides the visibility of gridviewcolumn as the window opens. Is their any solution available for that.


Thanks ,
Ankush.

Hello,

 You could check the RadGridView.GroupDescriptors that are initially defined and based on the information from them hide the proper columns.

hi,
Which event of radgrpoupDescriptor should i use so that i can get my desired result , if i am using Loaded event of radgridview and writing the following code in it , it is not hiding the corresponding column when window opens-

 private void rad1_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            ColumnGroupDescriptor gd = rad1.GroupDescriptors[0] as ColumnGroupDescriptor;
            //ColumnGroupDescriptor gd1 = gd;
            gd.Column.IsVisible = false;
        }
  
Thanks,
Ankush.

hi didie,

I am not sure why using the similar code , this approach is not working for me ,
well any how i have fixed this by using following code-

    
 private void rad1_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            //ColumnGroupDescriptor gd = rad1.GroupDescriptors[0] as ColumnGroupDescriptor;
            ////ColumnGroupDescriptor gd1 = gd;
            //gd.Column.IsVisible = false;
         ////   if (!isDefaultGroupingLoaded)
            {
                //   isDefaultGroupingLoaded = true;
                ColumnGroupDescriptor des = new ColumnGroupDescriptor();
                des.Column = rad1.Columns["FirstName"as Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridViewColumn;
                des.DisplayContent = "FirstName";
                des.SortDirection = null;
                rad1.GroupDescriptors.Add(des);
                des.Column.IsVisible = false;
            }
        }

thanks for your help.
