[Solved] Resize Column Shrinks Grid

[Mike]

I have ten columns in a RadGrid and when I resize a column the grid shrinks on both sides. 

How do I keep the grid at 99% and prevent it from shrinking when I resize a column
?

  <telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1"
                                          AllowMultiRowSelection="True"
                                          AllowSorting="True"
                                          AllowPaging="False"
                                          AutoGenerateColumns="False"
                                          AllowAutomaticUpdates="True"
                                          AlternatingItemStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center"
                                          BackColor="#ffffff"

                                          Height="425px"
                                          ItemStyle-HorizontalAlign="Center"

                                          ShowHeader="True"
                                          ShowGroupPanel="True"

Hi George,

Try setting the TableLayout property to Fixed and see whether the Grid is shrinking on resize.

ASPX:

<MasterTableView AutoGenerateColumns="False" TableLayout="Fixed" Width="99%" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" >

I tried that and the table still shrinks on both sides.

Hi George,

Have you set ResizeGridOnColumnResize property to true? When this property is set to False (the default), the grid preserves its size and resizes the rest of the columns evenly. If you set ResizeGridOnColumnResize to True, the grid changes its size dynamically when the user resizes a column. All other columns retain their original sizes.
