[Solved] How set the total width of the grid?

[Raymond]

All the grids I see on the example span the entire width of the containing block.

Is there a way to make the grid only as large as the column width contents?
This is slightly related to questiosn involving setting column widths -- however, they do not seem to work if I do not set Scrollable. (i.e. I do NOT want scroll bars).

Thanks.

Have you tried wrapping your grid in a div - something like this:

<div style="width:300px;">

GRID HERE

</div>

Hello,

 The Telerik Grid is rendered as an HTML table element. The latter do not accept column widths unless in fixed layout mode. The grid automatically goes in that table-layout: fixed mode if it is made scrollable. This can be also made using CSS:

.t-grid table
{
   table-layout:fixed;
}

You can set the width of the grid using its HtmlAttributes:

<%= Html.Telerik().Grid().HtmlAttributes(new { style = "width: 500px" } ) %>
