Virtual Grid - auto-size columns

[Joel Reisner]

We have a virtual grid that is used for scrolling over a large set of data. How can we make the columns auto-size themselves based on their caption?

Hi Joelr,

Thanks for your interest in Syncfusion products.

For a virtual grid, you can achieve the column width based on the text length in cells through the ResizeToFit property.

void gridControl1_PrepareViewStyleInfo(object sender, GridPrepareViewStyleInfoEventArgs e)
{
     if (e.Style.CellType == "TextBox")
           this.gridControl1.ColWidths.ResizeToFit(GridRangeInfo.Col(e.ColIndex), GridResizeToFitOptions.NoShrinkSize);
}

Regards,
Rajadurai

Is there a similar way to auto size the height of rows?

Hi Steve,

Please see the following code for code for auto size the height of rows.

this.gridListControl1.Grid.RowHeights.ResizeToFit(GridRangeInfo.Cells(1, 1, row, col));

Please let me know if this helps.

Does this work for GridGroupingControl as well?

[Jisha Joy]

Hi,

For gridgrouping control you could access the property using the TableModel. Please see the code:

this.gridGroupingControl1.TableModel.RowHeights.ResizeToFit(GridRangeInfo.Table());

Please let me know if this helps.
