I have a grid which has groupby feature (ViewStyleBand.OutlockGroupBy) turned on with summary cells in the groupby row.
band.Override.GroupBySummaryDisplayStyle = GroupBySummaryDisplayStyle.SummaryCells; band.Override.SummaryDisplayArea = SummaryDisplayAreas.InGroupByRows;
Question 1 - The summary cells appear to be couple pixels shorter (height-wise) than the regular rows. Is there a way to programmatically adjust the summary cell height in the groupby row to the cells on the regular rows?
Question 2 - I noticed each groupby section appears to have a white line border around it. I would like to remove it so that there is no gap between each group. Is there a way to do that? I already used the following, but still couldn't get that white line border to go away.
DisplayLayout.Override.GroupByRowSpacingBefore = 0; DisplayLayout.Override.GroupByRowSpacingAfter = 0; DisplayLayout.Override.GroupByRowPadding = 0;
I was able to make it transparent, by setting DisplayLayout.Override.GroupByRowAppearance.BorderAlpha = Alpha.Transparent, but ideally, that's not what I want, I want the gap to completely go away. Thanks.
Hi Michael,
You might actually be able to solve both of these issues with one solution:
I tried changing the border color of the GroupBy Rows in the InitializeGroupByRow handler and it seemed like it had the effect you're looking for. Please try this out:
private void ultraGrid1_InitializeGroupByRow(object sender, Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.InitializeGroupByRowEventArgs e) { e.Row.Appearance.BackColor = Color.Green; e.Row.Appearance.BorderColor = Color.Green; }
You can also set the Height of the rows directly in that method.
Actually, it is not what I was looking for. I already turned off painting the border white by using DisplayLayout.Override.GroupByRowAppearance.BorderAlpha = Alpha.Transparent, and that worked, but it has a gap there. Please see attachment. Another thing i want to mention is that I removed showing the groupby description using the following:
DisplayLayout.Override.GroupByRowDescriptionMask = " ";
because I want it to show more like a parent and child grid with cells at the group level. Please see attachment.
Hi Michael.
You can control this by using the BorderStyleSummaryValue property on the override. Try adding this code to your InitializeLayout handler:
private void ultraGrid1_InitializeLayout(object sender, Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.InitializeLayoutEventArgs e){ e.Layout.Override.BorderStyleSummaryValue = Infragistics.Win.UIElementBorderStyle.None;}
You should be able to control the height of the summary rows by setting their Height property in InitializeGroupByRow:
private void ultraGrid1_InitializeGroupByRow(object sender, Infragistics.Win.UltraWinGrid.InitializeGroupByRowEventArgs e){ e.Row.Height = 20;}
Thanks Mike for the quick response, but maybe I wasn't clear on what I am looking for. Please see screenshots on what the 2 suggestions looked like, and I also included a screenshot of what I am looking for. Thanks again.
Oops, I can only attach one image in a post. Here is another screenshot of what your suggestion looked like.
And here is a screenshot of what I want.
Thanks Mike. What about the summary cell height on the groupby row?
After investigating this more, I found that the grid is still leaving some space for the description even when setting it to nothing. We feel that there ought to be a way to completely hide the description and I believe this may be causing the gap to appear for you. I have logged this behavior in our internal tracking system with a Development ID of 224593. The next step will be for another developer to review my investigation and confirm my findings, or to offer a fix or other resolution.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
