Text wrapping in a column header (2nd time)

[Szymon Wantuch]

Hello,

I am sorry for repeating the thread, but unfortunately, there was an error at the exact moment of posting and now all I can see is a "Server error" when I try to access the thread. After almost 30 min of searching the website for any contact to administrator of the forum I've decided to repost the isssue. Sorry for inconvenience.

The issue is the possibility of wrapping the text inside the column header: example in this thread cannot really be used, because the AlignmentContentPresenter is obsolete, also my efforts with using TextBlock yield no results.

Also, second question is about the possibility of creating the "overheader" gruping columns, in the style of a pivot grid.

Sorry for inconvenience,
Best Regards,
Szymon Wantuch

Hi Szymon Wantuch,

Regarding the text wrapping issue:
Please try the following XAML :

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn  Width="100"   DataMemberBinding="{Binding ObjectID}" >
                   <telerik:GridViewDataColumn.Header>
                       <TextBlock Text="Some long text here tes123 test123" TextWrapping="Wrap" />
                   </telerik:GridViewDataColumn.Header>
               </telerik:GridViewDataColumn>

Regarding the "overheader" . This feature is not internally supported by RadGridView ( yet) . We are working towards adding such feature , meanwhile there is still a way to achieve that. Please have a look at my blog post.

How would I wrap the header text if I was adding the column in code and not in xaml?

Hi,

You can add exactly the same TextBlock by code in desired column Header property.

All the best,
