I am using RadGridView for my WPF application and want to display vertical and horizontal scroll bar whenever the number of colums and rows are more.
I have set its Styles as folows :
<
Style
TargetType
=
"{x:Type telerik:RadGridView}"
>
<
Setter
Property
=
"HeaderRowStyle"
Value
=
"{DynamicResource GridViewHeaderRowStyle1}"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"AlternateRowStyle"
Value
=
"{DynamicResource AlternateRowStyle}"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"IsFilteringAllowed"
Value
=
"false"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"RowStyle"
Value
=
"{DynamicResource GridViewRowStyle}"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"GridLinesVisibility"
Value
=
"Both"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"Cursor"
Value
=
"Hand"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"VerticalGridLinesBrush"
Value
=
"#CCCCCC"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"HorizontalGridLinesBrush"
Value
=
"#CCCCCC"
/>
<!--Setter Property="MinColumnWidth" Value="20"/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"MaxColumnWidth"
Value
=
"150"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"ColumnWidth"
Value
=
"100"
/-->
<
Setter
Property
=
"RowIndicatorVisibility"
Value
=
"Collapsed"
/>
<!--Setter Property="RowDetailsVisibilityMode" Value="VisibleWhenSelected"/-->
<
Setter
Property
=
"AlternationCount"
Value
=
"2"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"VerticalAlignment"
Value
=
"Top"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"HorizontalAlignment"
Value
=
"Center"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"ShowGroupPanel"
Value
=
"False"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"AutoGenerateColumns"
Value
=
"False"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"IsReadOnly"
Value
=
"True"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility"
Value
=
"Auto"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility"
Value
=
"Auto"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"IsScrolling"
Value
=
"True"
/>
</
Style
>
Then in the main XAML i am using the following code :
<
telerik:RadGridView
x:Name
=
"billDataGrid"
Grid.Row
=
"5"
>
<
telerik:RadGridView.Columns
>
<
telerik:GridViewDataColumn
Header
=
"Name"
Width
=
"*"
TextWrapping
=
"Wrap"
/>
<
telerik:GridViewDataColumn
Header
=
"Address"
Width
=
"*"
TextWrapping
=
"Wrap"
/>
</
telerik:RadGridView
>
But when i am running my screen then I am not able to see the scroll bar even the data is very large.
Kindly let me know where i am wrong in defining the scroll bar.

Basically, the RadGridView will display a scroll bar in case the rows or columns are more than the available space. However, in case you define it in a control - like StackPanel for example - the scroll bar will not be available.

Thanks for quick response !!!!!!!
But kindly let me know the correct way to get the scroll bar.I am not clear with your answer.
So you mean to say that I should not give style to the grid as follows ?
<
Setter
Property
=
"ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility"
Value
=
"Auto"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility"
Value
=
"Auto"
/>
<
Setter
Property
=
"IsScrolling"
Value
=
"True"
/>
And what should be the Width i should give to the columns of the grid ?
There is no need of the style in case you use it only in the attempt to visualize the scroll bar. Do you define the RadGridView in a particular control - for example:
<
StackPanel>
<
telerik:RadGridView
Name
=
"playersGrid"
ItemsSource
=
"{Binding Players}"
AutoGenerateColumns
=
"False"
>
</
telerik:RadGridView>
</
StackPanel
>
May you share of your code illustrating how you define the grid ?

I have defined my grid into a Grid row directly and not using the Stackpanel for it.

Kindly let me know why it is not displaying the scroll bar though i have defined style for it and also have large data into it.

Based on the code-provided by Parul, I have prepared a sample project so that to test the case. However, everything works as expected - the horizontal scroll bar is displayed accordingly. When I added an ItemsSource for the grid, the vertical scroll bar is also visualized.
May you take a look at the sample attached and verify whether there are any misunderstandings or there is something I am missing according to both of your scenarios ?

Thanks alot for the solution !!!!!!!!
May be I have applied some wrong style to the grid because of which it was not giving me the aprropriate answer.

I have the same problem with scroll bar in grid. Your sample project works fine, but when I put radgrid in radexpander scroll bars do not appear. What should I do?
There have been an issue with the RadExpander and the way it measures its size. However, it has already been fixed and will be available with the release of our Service Pack.
Furthermore, I have tested the case with a RadGridView defined in a RadExpander and everything works as expected with our latest binaries that, as mentioned above, will be available with the Q1 2011 SP.

Please have a look at the following article which explains how to modify the appearance of the scrollbars if you have not done so already.
Do let me know if you require any assistance with the concrete implementation. If that is the case, please specify the theme(s) you're using and I'd be happy to help you out further.
