You can use this:

      <igDP:Field>

            <igDP:Field.Settings>

                <igDP:FieldSettings CellMaxWidth="50" LabelMaxWidth="50"/>

            </igDP:Field.Settings>

        </igDP:Field>

Hi Alex...

How do i acheive the same thing in xaml? nothing in the code behind.

Thanks

Hi Alex,

and thanks on more time, the LabelMaxWidth does the trick, i thought the CellMaxWidth  should do it. Anyway it is  working now like below.

edit.Settings.LabelMaxWidth = 20; :-)

Arta,

Artha,

I was not able to reproduce this, but first thing that comes in my mind is to set the label max width also like this (also check for a style or somewhere in your code where you might be overriding this property).

e.FieldLayout.Fields[1].Settings.CellMaxWidth = 20;
e.FieldLayout.Fields[1].Settings.LabelMaxWidth = 20;

Test this and let me know if it works in your scenario.

If not, please mention your dll versions in the next post.

Alex.

Hi Alex, 

i have another problem: i tried in to ways to set the CellMaxWidth like below and it  does not work.  Please can you show me an example, how this  programmatically works?

private void dataGridCountry_FieldLayoutInitialized(object sender, Infragistics.Windows.DataPresenter.Events.FieldLayoutInitializedEventArgs e)
{
    e.FieldLayout.Fields[0].Settings.CellMaxWidth = 20;
}

Thanks Arta
