Column Widths

[Ivan Pelly]

Hi -

We're formatting a GridDataBoundGrid in code, setting column widths explicitly. The grid is on a tab control, so is not initially visible when the form is displayed. When the grid does become visible, it appears that, for columns whose width has been set narrower than the text in the column header, the column width is reset so that the wide column header text is accomodated. (I don't think this happened in version 1.1 of the grid) Is there a way to prevent this from happening?

Thanks

You can prevent the auto resize based on the column headers by setting the AutoResizeToFit property to False.

I'm not seeing a property of that name - which object would that be a property of? Thanks.

You will need version 1.5 which is available as an evaluation download as of last week. The property is

GridDataBoundGrid.AllowResizeToFit
