Autosizing columns

[Ivan Pelly]

Are there any events raised, other than ColWidthsChanged, when the user double-clicks on the divider between columns to resize the column? Thanks!

See ResizingColumns.

It is called for hittesting for that line, when pressing the mouse and dragging the sizing line.

I have noticed that the default behavior for double clicking the column divider (GridControl) is to set the size of the column to the 'DefaultColWidth' property of the grid. This seems a little strange as all other grids I've worked with size it to the longest text in any of the cells of the column. Is there an option to change the behavior of the double click to do this? If not, what would be the best way to implement this?

Thanks,
Terry

There is no property that does this, but you can do it handling the ResizingCols event.

private void gridControl1_ResizingColumns(object sender, GridResizingColumnsEventArgs e)
{
	if(e.Reason == GridResizeCellsReason.DoubleClick)
	{
		this.gridControl1.ColWidths.ResizeToFit(e.Columns, GridResizeToFitOptions.IncludeHeaders);
		e.Cancel = true;
	}
}

Perfect - thank you.
