Feature Request #296

[Administrator]

Any estinate of when (in which version) this request will be completed? Our users are clamoring for it and I''m sure my attempt to implemnt this would be inferior to a builtin grid solution.

I do not know when this might be completed. I have forwrded your question onto the development team to see if they have an idea.

It is straight-forward to do this using the DrawCellDisplayText event.

private void gridControl1_DrawCellDisplayText(object sender, GridDrawCellDisplayTextEventArgs e)
{
	float w = e.Graphics.MeasureString(e.DisplayText, e.Style.GdipFont).Width;
	if(w > e.TextRectangle.Width)
	{
		e.DisplayText = new string(''#'', e.DisplayText.Length);
	}
}
