SfDataGrid potential bug on setting FontSize

[John]

I may have found a bug in SfDataGrid, if I set its FontSize property to lets say 20. It works in Windows 7 and entire grid has FontSize 20 but in Windows 10, it ignores that FontSize property and uses maybe default FontSize.

So I'm forced to use GridCell style and set FontSize there to make it work in Windows 10 as well.

Please fix this.

Remove this

<Style TargetType="syncfusion:SfDataGrid">

            <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="20"/>

        </Style>

and use this

        <syncfusion:SfDataGrid x:Name="dataGrid"
                               AllowFiltering="True"

                              FontSize="20"                   
                               ShowGroupDropArea="True"
                               AllowEditing="True"
                               AddNewRowPosition="Top"
                               ItemsSource="{Binding Orders}">
        </syncfusion:SfDataGrid>

Hello again unfortunately,

This somehow seems to be a problem pertaining to newer versions of the Datagrid.

I am using the last version of Syncfusion.SfGrid.WPF 20.1.0.55 and .net core 6 and by simply setting the FontSize="20" nothing happens.

I tested this to your sample project "Syncfusion wpf-demos-master" in the GettingStarted.xaml file of the

syncfusion.datagriddemos.wpf_lib_60 project.

Could you take a look at this?

Is there another hack to change the cell's fontSize until this issue is resolved?

With kind regards

I can see that in your project it works as expected. In my printscreen, as stated above, you can see that with your default code from the project stated above, changing only the FontSize and it doesnt work.

Can it be that the FontSize needs some specific attribute/s to be "activated" somehow?
Otherwise i am out of ideas...

I uploaded a zipped printscreen of the sollution, since uploading the whole project 2something gb would be not possible

Hi Fanourios Siskakis,

We have applied the theme for the GettingStarted sample in the WPF demos. In this case, the font size is displayed based on the applied theme. So, the changed font size property is not replicated in SfDataGrid.

However, your requirement to change the font size in SfDataGrid can be achieved by adding the ResourceDictionary based on the applied Theme (ex: MaterilaLight). Basedon property bound with SyncfusionGridCellStyle as StaticResource in defined Style based. Please refer the below code snippet,

<syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Resources>

                <ResourceDictionary>

                    <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>

                        <ResourceDictionary Source="/Syncfusion.Themes.FluentLight.WPF;component/MSControl/Window.xaml"/>

                        <ResourceDictionary Source="/Syncfusion.Themes.FluentLight.WPF;component/SfDataGrid/SfDataGrid.xaml"/>

                        <ResourceDictionary Source="/Syncfusion.Themes.FluentLight.WPF;component/MSControl/TextBox.xaml"/>

                        <ResourceDictionary Source="/Syncfusion.Themes.FluentLight.WPF;component/MSControl/TextBlock.xaml"/>

                        <ResourceDictionary Source="/Syncfusion.Themes.FluentLight.WPF;component/MSControl/ComboBox.xaml"/>

                        <ResourceDictionary Source="/Syncfusion.Themes.FluentLight.WPF;component/MSControl/Button.xaml"/>

                        <ResourceDictionary Source="/Syncfusion.Themes.FluentLight.WPF;component/MSControl/RadioButton.xaml"/>

                        <ResourceDictionary Source="/Syncfusion.Themes.FluentLight.WPF;component/MSControl/ScrollViewer.xaml"/>

                    </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>

                    <Style  BasedOn="{StaticResource SyncfusionGridCellStyle}" TargetType="syncfusion:GridCell">

                        <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="20" />

                    </Style>

                </ResourceDictionary>

</syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Resources>
