Hi
In my application grid I am using columnchooser control in a winform rather than inbuildcolumnchooser.
The grid has only one band and lots of columns under different groups. I am facing two major issues
1) Although I set property to display columnorder in alphabetical order ,columns in columnchooser are not displayed
in right order. It is all mixed up.
2) The checkboxes with column name in columnchooser dialog appeared as checked for those column
which are not displayed in the grid. For this reason I can't get rid of check boxes since my requirement is to display
hiddencolumn only.
Any help is highly appreciated.
What version of the grid are you using?

The only thing I can think of here is that this is either a bug that was fixed a long time ago, or else there is some kind of timing issue at work.
Are you able to duplicate this in a small sample project and post it here?

I have never heard of this happening, and I don't know how it could happen. If you can duplicate this in a small sample, I'd be happy to take a look at it for you and see what's wrong.
I am using version 8.2.
I will try to replicate the issue in a small app if possible. I am using BindingSource, datasource of which is class with asyncBindinglist. Now in initializelayout I read a customxml file that set each columns property like, caption, group,exclude col chooser etc, and on the top of the form I have a dropdown for different column filter each option has different set of columns and group, which again look into separate custom xml that redesign grid with its groups and columns.
Also can you tell me
which property grid uses to sort the column chooser columns?
Is it possible to have filter in column chooser grid?
Is it possible to have any header in column chooser grid on which user can click and sort?
Is it possible suppress the check box even you display all the columns?

I assume it sorted on whatever text is displayed in the column chooser header. Nothing else would make sense.

I don't know what you mean. What kind of filter?

No, I don't think so.

I don't understand what this means.
