Gridcontrol - Export to pdf outline

[Dinis Ferreira]

Hello,

When I export a gridcontrol to pdf the grid don't have outline/contour.

I've try gridTmp.RowStyles[0].Borders.Top but have no effect (header?).

Is there a way to add a border/outline to main grid?

Thanks

Hi Dinis Ferreira,

Your requirement to add a border/outline to grid Export to pdf can be achieved by adding the top and left border for GridControl using QueryCellInfo. Please refer to the below code snippet,

//Event Subscription

gridControl1.QueryCellInfo += OnQueryCellInfo;

 

//Event customization

private void OnQueryCellInfo(object sender, GridQueryCellInfoEventArgs e)

{

     //here set the Top border for Column Header

     if (e.RowIndex == 0)

         e.Style.Borders.Top = new GridBorder(GridBorderStyle.Solid);

     //here set the Left border for Row Header

     if (e.ColIndex == 0)

         e.Style.Borders.Left = new GridBorder(GridBorderStyle.Solid);

}
