The OutlookExpress view has almost exactly what I'm looking for, but instead of clipping columns when there's not enough room, I need it to wrap the text and increase the row height to display the wrapped text.
I set the CellWrapText property to true and it displays the first part of the text with ellipses, but I can't tell if it's wrapping part of the text or just clipping it, because the node/row height doesn't change. My expectation would be (a) the text wraps to a new line when there isn't enough width, (b) the row height increases to display the wrapped text, and (c) no ellipses or clipping.
Question 1: Is it possible to wrap text in OutlookExpress mode?
Question 2: If it does support wrapping in OutlookExpress mode, how I can make the node/row height autosize to display the wrapped text?
Thanks!Jim Honeycutt
I noticed that you've had success building a tree in outlook express mode. do you have any sample code that you can post? I'm having problems adding child nodes in this mode.
I actually abandoned the OutlookExpress approach since the rows don't autosize to fit the wrapped data, and there was too much clipping if I left the data all on one row.
The OutlookExpress mode is great if you have lots of width available to display the columns with minimal clipping/wrapping. Unfortunately I had to fit my tree into a small width, so it didn't work out. I'm using the normal node-based view instead.
Sorry, don't have any code to help you with that. If you post the specific problem you're having though, the Infragistics folks should be able to point you in the right direction.

Hi - I have a similar requirement to achieve with Ultratree.
I tried the code given above, But when I set the preferred size for a cell, it affects all the nodes in the ultratree. I think, this is because the property is set to columnset. Can't the same cell in different node have different heights when the Ultratree is rendered in OutlookExpress mode?
