Summary Row Alignment

[ahmed almousa]

Hi,

I have added summary row total in my grid but I am not getting it aligned in anyway. I have tried by following method

private void rgvFinancials_ViewCellFormatting(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.CellFormattingEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.CellElement is Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridSummaryCellElement)
            {
                                             
                e.CellElement.Alignment = ContentAlignment.MiddleRight;
                e.CellElement.UpdateLayout();
            }
        }

I tried by commenting and uncommenting following statement also:

                e.CellElement.UpdateLayout();

But there is no effect on the cells of summary row.

Please guide me how can I align text in the summary row cells.

Regards,

Ahmed Almousa

Hello ahmed almousa,

Thank you for this question.

The UpdateLayout is not needed in this case. In fact it can only slow down your application. We do not recommend calling this method directly. You should set the TextAlignment property when changing the text alignment. Please replace the Alignment property with TextAlignment and your code should work. 
 
In case you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to write me back.

Best wishes,
Jack
