GroupDropArea

[Jeremy]

Hi Team,

Is there a reason why the GroupPanel's Height property has a minimum allowed value of 48?

Hi Jeremy, 

 

We have defined the minimum allowed value of group panel’s height as 48 is only for considering the appearance group panel items. You can also provide the value lesser than 48 for group panel’s height. To achieve this, you have to change the “MinimumSize” of group panel with your own values. Kindly refer to the attached sample from the below location. 

http://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/forum/144103/ze/CS6058363  

 

Refer to the following code example. 

/// <summary> 

        /// Grid Settings for better Look and Feel. 

        /// </summary> 

        private void GridSettings() 

        { 

            sfDataGrid.GroupPanel.MinimumSize = new System.Drawing.Size(0, 20); 

            sfDataGrid.GroupPanel.Height = 20; 

            sfDataGrid.GroupColumnDescriptions.Add(new GroupColumnDescription() { ColumnName = "ProductName" }); 

            sfDataGrid.GroupColumnDescriptions.Add(new GroupColumnDescription() { ColumnName = "ShipCountry" }); 

            sfDataGrid.GroupColumnDescriptions.Add(new GroupColumnDescription() { ColumnName = "CustomerID" }); 

            sfDataGrid.ExpandAllGroup(); 

        }

Hi Jeremy, 

 

Thanks for your update. 

 

We set the minimum height of the group drop area to properly paint the group drop area items without any clipping. And also you can refer the below UG documentation to customize the height of the group drop area, 

https://help.syncfusion.com/windowsforms/sfdatagrid/grouping#customizing-groupdroparea-height  

And you can enable datagrid to auto fit content for grouped items in GroupDropArea by using the sfDataGrid.AutoFitGroupDropAreaItem property. Please refer the below guidelines for your reference, 

https://help.syncfusion.com/windowsforms/sfdatagrid/grouping#auto-fit-group-drop-area-items  

Let us know whether this helps also if you need any further assistance on this.
