Hiding columns in GGC and scroll using keyboard causing the application to freeze

[Mike]

Hi,
I tried to hide columns in Grid Grouping Contol using the following methods:
ggc.TableModel.Cols.Hidden(str) = True
or
ggc.TableModel.ColWidths(str) = 0

For some reason, if I try to scroll to the right using keyboard, the application will freeze. Sample attached

Do you know any properties or work around I should set to avoid this to happen. We've been using this method all over the place in our application and it would be great if the solution won't be changing the whole logic in the grid.

Cheers

Hi,
Can anyone help me on this? We're nearing the final stage of the project and this issue is holding us up.

Hi

Please use VisibleColumns.Remove method to hide the column in a groupinggrid:

this.gridGroupingControl1.TableDescriptor.VisibleColumns.Remove(“ColumnName”);

Please let me know if this helps.

Hi Johnson, thanks for the reply.

The problem is we have been using TableModel.NameToColIndex("HiddenColumnName") to get the columnIndex and TableModel(rowIndex,colIndex).CellValue to get the value of a cell in the hidden column and it won't work if we use VisibleColumns property as you suggested.

Is this a known bug with GGC as it works fine with GDBG? Have you got any other work around on this as we're not keen to rewrite a big chunk our code at this stage.

Cheers,

Hi Myke,

You can get the hidden column value by using the Record.GetValue() method in QueryCellStyleInfo event.

Syncfusion.Grouping.Record rec = e.Style.TableCellIdentity.DisplayElement.GetRecord() as Syncfusion.Grouping.Record;

if (rec != null)
{
object val;
val = rec.GetValue("HiddenColName");
if( val != null )
e.Style.CellTipText = val.ToString() ;
}

Please refer the sample to implement this.

Hi Johnson,
thanks for your reply. The solution you provided requires heaps of code changes in our application at this stage.
I've found other work around by handling the TableControlMoveCurrentCellDirection event.

This thread shows how to do this.
