How to set a Grid header format

[Andy Grau]

It seems to be a simple thing, but I cannot get it working... I need to change a default font of the headers (i.e. row 0 and column 0) to normal, not bold.

This code works:

Me.GridControl2(0, 1).Font.Bold = False

But this one doesn't:

Me.GridControl2.Model.ColStyles(0).Font.Bold = False

Me.GridControl2.Model.RowStyles(0).Font.Bold = False

How can I define a custom font for the whole header row or column? It is not a good idea to loop through all cells...

Thanks

Hi Andy Garu,

Thanks for your interest in Syncfusion products.

Query: How can I define a custom font for the whole header row or column?

I could not able to reproduce the reported code doesnot respond to the particular column font. The code specified from your side itself can make the font of the particular column to be bold.  Please refer to the following image. I have provided the sample in latest Syncfusion version so it might cause problems if you use older version due to unavailability of advanced support provided in latest version. So please provide me the version you are using, so that I can provide sample in that version.

Please let me know if you have any other concerns.

Regards,

Arun.

Yes, it works for any columns/rows except headers, i.e. column 0 and row 0. How can I set it up for column 0 or row 0?

Thanks

Hi Andy,

Thanks for the update.

Yes I could able to reproduce the reported in your version. So to set the header text font to bold you can handle the PrepareViewStyleInfo event.

this.gridControl1.PrepareViewStyleInfo +=

Please let me know if you have any other concerns.

Thanks, could you please provide the complete code for VB.NET?

Also, for the code optimization, would it be better just to loop through all header's cells rather than handle events?

Thanks

Hi Andy,

Thanks for the update.

Here is the codesnippet for the reported behavior in VB.

Code Snippet:

Private Sub grid_PrepareViewStyleInfo(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridPrepareViewStyleInfoEventArgs)

if e.Style.CellType == GridCellTypeName.Header Then

e.Style.Font.Bold = true

End If

Please use the above code making the header text to be bold, and let me know if you have any other concerns.

Regards,

Arun.
