which I can't solve by my self. So how do I set autoSizeDropDownToBestFit like on the MultiColumnComboBox object? or something like that.

Hi Hugo Ruivo,

If you want to resize the dropdown according to the columns' width, please set the AutoSizeDropDownToBestFit to true:

void radGridView1_CellBeginEdit(object sender, GridViewCellCancelEventArgs e)
{
    if (this.radGridView1.CurrentColumn is GridViewMultiComboBoxColumn)
    {
        RadMultiColumnComboBoxElement editor = (RadMultiColumnComboBoxElement)this.radGridView1.ActiveEditor;
        editor.AutoSizeDropDownToBestFit = true;
    }
}

Please note that this modification should be done in the CellBeginEdit event as it is demonstrated in this article.

I hope this helps. If you have additional questions, feel free to contact me.
