[Solved] Vertical Column Headers

[Timothy]

I have a requirement to display Column Headers vertically in my RadGridView. What is the easiest way to accomplish this?

Requirements:

Column one header needs to be horizontal while the rest of the columns need to be vertical. I actually had this working the other day but I accidently deleted the project. I know it was an issue with layoutTransform not being available but there was a workaround and like I said I had it working the other day.

Thanks,
Tim

I finally got this working.

Here is what I did to get vertical columns. I did this for each column and it work great. Found the code on this forum somewhere but I cannot find the link. Apologies for that but here it is,

 

<telerik:GridViewCheckBoxColumn.Header>
                        <Border Height="170" Margin="1,0,-151,0" >
                            <TextBlock  Text="Pre Migration Tasks" HorizontalAlignment="Left"  FontSize="11" FontWeight="Normal" Height="auto" TextAlignment="Center"  VerticalAlignment="Bottom" FontFamily="Portable User Interface" UseLayoutRounding="True" TextTrimming="None" Margin="9,0,0,0">
                            <TextBlock.RenderTransform>
                                <RotateTransform Angle="270" />
                            </TextBlock.RenderTransform>
                            </TextBlock>
                        </Border>
                    </telerik:GridViewCheckBoxColumn.Header>
                </telerik:GridViewCheckBoxColumn>

How did you deal with column headers where the text was longer than the height?  It appears the text will not wrap in these situations.
