Hello, Jay,
The custom
GridDataCellElement with the stretched
LightVisualElement for achieving the text overflowing (when the cell is not in edit mode) doesn't depend on the
ReadOnly property of the column. It is expected to overflow the text no matter whether the column is read-only or not.
However, please have in mind that when a cell enters edit mode, the respective editor is initialized and it is sized according to the width of the column which behavior is by design.
Could you please give us some more details about the exact goal that you are trying to achieve? Once we get better understanding of the precise case we would be able to think about a suitable solution and provide further assistance. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
I am looking forward to your reply.
Regards,
Dess | Tech Support Engineer, Sr.
