Changing column size on the fly and forcing changes into the grid

[Nick]

Hi,

I have created a custom control that contains a GridControl. I have a custom-defined structure in my custom control that defines column widths. During initialization, the gridcontrol inside my custom control is initialized and the QueryColWidth handler is invoked. However the column widths are defined in the form InitializeComponent, something like:

private void InitializeComponent() {
... this.xPropertyGrid1.DefaultHeaderStyle = ... this.xPropertyGrid1.DefaultValueStyle = ...

These style objects contain the new column widths. As part of the custom controls initialization, the form sets its TabIndex to 0, and some how this seems to initiate the internal GridControl to ask for new column widths on the QueryColWidth handler. In here I provide the newly assigned widths, but the actual rendered grid does NOT seem to reflect these widths - its as if the widths have been ignored.

Any advice?

Nick.
