Table layout auto not working

[marcus_m]

Hi - I am populating a grid from a datatable, with AutoGenerateColumns=true. I have tried using the master table view Tablelayout=auto property and it still resizes the columns to equal widths despite having some columns with long text and others with id values.  I have client side column resizing turned on - could this be interfering with this working correctly?  Thanks for your help

Hello Marcus,

You will need to set the columns width manually:

protected void RadGrid1_ColumnCreated(object sender, GridColumnCreatedEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Column.UniqueName == "ShipName")
    {
        e.Column.HeaderStyle.Width = Unit.Pixel(300);
    }
}

Alternatively, you can try the following approach:

Hope this helps.
