How to resize the last column to client size of the grid in WinForms GridControl?
Resize the last column
To resize the last column to client size of the Grid, you can use the QueryColWidth event. This customizes the width of the column in WinForms GridControl.
C#
this.gridControl1.Model.QueryColWidth += Model_QueryColWidth;
void Model_QueryColWidth(object sender, Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridRowColSizeEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Index > this.gridControl1.ColCount - 1)
{
//Resizes the last column to client size.
this.Col_size = this.gridControl1.Model.ColWidths.GetTotal(0, this.gridControl1.ColCount - 1);
e.Size = this.gridControl1.ClientSize.Width - Col_size;
e.Handled = true;
}
}
VB
Private Me.gridControl1.Model.QueryColWidth += AddressOf Model_QueryColWidth Private Sub Model_QueryColWidth(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridRowColSizeEventArgs) If e.Index > Me.gridControl1.ColCount - 1 Then 'Resizes the last column to client size. Me.Col_size = Me.gridControl1.Model.ColWidths.GetTotal(0, Me.gridControl1.ColCount - 1) e.Size = Me.gridControl1.ClientSize.Width - Col_size e.Handled = True End If End Sub
