Hi Sahaja,

Thanks so much for your sample app and your response!

I modified your Form1.cs file a little. You need to resize the column to see the issue and please look at the attached screen image. There is too much space wasted with the cell left padding. I noticed there were some discussions on padding but I do not totally agree with the answers. I also noticed that no partial letter is displayed inside a cell. Is there an option or setting to control where a letter of digit can be displayed partially?

Your help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Shaolin

Hi Sahaja,

I was not able to attached two files. The modified file Form1.cs is attached.

Thanks,

Hi Sahaja,

I am sending you another image and that is what we would like to have. The letter E of cell text "A&E" is partially displayed and the first 3 of "3,331.02" is also partially displayed.

Thanks,
Shaolin

Hi Shaolin,

The space you are seeing with the cell left padding is because of the masked characters in that cell.

You can use TextTrimming property to partially display the cell text. For example you can do something like this
  this.ultraGrid1.DisplayLayout.Bands[0].Columns["Col1"].CellAppearance.TextTrimming = Infragistics.Win.TextTrimming.Character;

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

Hi sahaha,

Thanks for your investigation!

I changed the code as you suggested but I did not notice any improvement. I made some of data in column "Col0" same as I used before and the same column width. They were shown exactly the same with or without TextTrimming and all the numbers were truncated. Please note my "Col0" is your "Col1" in your provided sample.

Could you please give me some more suggestions?

Thanks,
Shaolin

Sahaja,
