xamGrid: How do you prevent columns from disappearing without setting MinimumWidth on each column?

David Maxwell posted over 8 years ago

We have an issue where users' columns are disappearing when they drag/resize them too close together.

Obviously, if we set a minimum width for every column in every grid in the application or bind the columns to a control template it can be controlled, but is there a setting at the xamGrid level that will prevent this from happening?

Thanks,

David

Hello David,

The ColumnResizing event is fired before the column is resized. The event could be canceled if the Width is smaller than a certain value. This will be applied for all column in the grid.

private void xamGrid1_ColumnResizing(object sender, Infragistics.Controls.Grids.CancellableColumnResizingEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Width < 100)
                e.Cancel = true;
        }

Please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Hi Maria,

Thanks for your response. Unfortunately this does not address the issue for two reasons:

It only works if the column being resized is less than 100 px when starting the resize drag

It freezes the column and it cannot be resized at all, even larger

The solution I require is so that when the user is reducing the column width, it will stop before the column completely disappears. Setting a minimum width on each individual column in the xaml will work for this, but it would be too labor intensive as we have many grids containing multiple columns.

Thanks,

David
