Hi 

How to increase the gridview header's height when using  ColumnGroups.

When i am not using the Group header then by following code i am able to increase the size of header by
following code.

(this.radGridView1.GridElement as GridTableElement).TableHeaderHeight = 35;

 

 

but when i am using the group header ,above code is not working or does not have any affect on the header height.
 
Thanks
Ajay yadav

Hi Ajay,

You should set the RowSpan property of some column in this case. Consider the code snippet below:

 
viewDef.ColumnGroups[1].Rows[0].Columns[0].RowSpan = 40; 
 

We will add a more convenient API in our upcoming releases.

I am using Q3 2009 SP1 version of this control.  I have a grid with several columngroups and several group rows (three to be factual).  I have tried the code you suggested and it had no effect.  Should I be setting the rowspan for the first column for each group row ?

I am attempting to rotate the text to a vertical orientation within the group to be able to display the full text while displaying multiple columns.  Below is the code; (sorry it includes stuff I put in just for testing)

Imports Telerik.WinControls
Imports Telerik.WinControls.UI

Public Class frmTesting

    Private tableview As TableViewDefinition
    Private columngroupview As ColumnGroupsViewDefinition


    Private Sub frmTesting_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

        CreateGridColumns()
        tableview = TryCast(RadGridView1.ViewDefinition, TableViewDefinition)
        InitGrid()

    End Sub
    Private Sub GridReset()

        RadGridView1.ViewDefinition = tableview
        CreateGridColumns()
        'tableview = TryCast(RadGridView1.ViewDefinition, TableViewDefinition)
        InitGrid()

        If OptViewTable.ToggleState = Enumerations.ToggleState.On Then

            RadGridView1.ViewDefinition = Me.tableview
        Else
            RadGridView1.ViewDefinition = Me.columngroupview

        End If

        'RadGridView1.ViewDefinition = IIf(optViewCol.ToggleState = Enumerations.ToggleState.On, columngroupview, tableview)

    End Sub
    Private Sub InitGrid()


        Me.columngroupview = New ColumnGroupsViewDefinition

        Me.columngroupview.ColumnGroups.Add(New GridViewColumnGroup("General"))

Hi Kirk,

I looked at your code and I cannot find the line where you are setting the RowSpan property. Please, send me your application and specify the result that you expect. I will try to find a solution.

Jignesh, could you please give more details on this issue. I admit, that this property name may be a little confusing. Actually, we support row span feature only in HTML view mode. When using column groups view, this property specifies the row height.

All the best,
Jack

Hi Jack,

Thank you for your reply.

If it is possible in HTML view only then it will not solve my problem because I have used column groups view.

Thank you.

Hi Jignesh,

In this case I would suggest using HTML view. You can find an example in our demo application. The following blog article is also a good starting point.

Thanks Jack.  Sorry about not including the line.  This was a form I was using to test the functionality, so I had removed it before posting.  My apologies. 
That said, I had continued experimenting with it, and realized that I was placing the code in the wrong event.  I have since corrected it and I now have the form working.

Thanks much for your help...

Here is the code... if anyone else is interested... (incidentally... it's very commented...)
