Questions about ColumnChooser

[Llorens Mathieu]

Hi,

First question : 

I have a radGridView in my application. I hide some columns. If I right-clic in the grid, the contextual menu appears and if I clic on "Column chooser" it appears correctly with hidden columns inside. Good.

Now, I want to create a little button to open the column chooser quickly without the contextuial menu. If I call 

Me.DataGrid.ColumnChooser.Show()

the column chooser appears, but it is empty.

Other question : 

Is it possible to change the theme of the columnChooser ? I'am using the desert theme and when I open it, it is still in XP style (blue border).

Thank you for all

Hello Llorens Mathieu,

Thank you for writing. Please try ShowColumnChoser method instead. I have tested it and it works as expected:

Me.RadGridView1.ShowColumnChooser()

Currently, we do not support changing the theme of the ColumnChooser. Actually we are using a standard windows form. We will consider to change it with RadFrom which supports theming in some of the next releases. I have updated your Telerik points for bringing our attention to this.

Do not hesitate to contact me again if you have any other questions.

All the best,
