Forms Data Controls :: Controlling A Gridview's Width?

Mar 22, 2010

I have a GridView bound to a SqlDataSource. If the text in a particular column is very long then the Grid view becomes very wide, well off the page. How do I constrain it, if necessary truncating the text displayed? I cannot find the relevant setting in the properties section.

Forms Data Controls :: To Set The Width Of A GridView To A Pre-determined Width?

Oct 5, 2010

Is there any way to set the width of a GridView to a pre-determined width?

I have set the width of the gridview and all the columns to a % and then to a number of pixels but it does work. The gridview always sets itself to a width required to display all fields and it goes beyond the resolution of the screen. I would like to contain it to 1024 pixels.

Here's my .aspx

Forms Data Controls :: Controlling Scroll Position Of Gridview

Jan 13, 2011

I have a gridview inside a div and everytime i scroll to the bottom rows of gridview, it throws back to the top of the grid.

<div id="divGvIncidentDetail" runat="server" style="overflow:scroll; min-height: 10px; max-height: 250px;" onscroll="SetDivPosition()">
<asp:GridView ID="gvIncidentDetail" runat="server" ...>
</asp:GridView>
</div>

To prevent it, i tried implementing following javascript code by user Sun Rays:

<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function () {
var strCook = document.cookie;
if (strCook.indexOf("!~") != 0) {
var intS = strCook.indexOf("!~");
var intE = strCook.indexOf("~!");
var strPos = strCook.substring(intS + 2, intE);
document.getElementById("divGvIncidentDetail").scrollTop = strPos;
}
}
function SetDivPosition() {
var intY = document.getElementById("divGvIncidentDetail").scrollTop;
document.title = intY;
document.cookie = "yPos=!~" + intY + "~!";
}
</script>

I get the following error when i run the code: Microsoft JScript runtime error: 'document.getElementById(...)' is null or not an object Am i missing something? or is there any other better solution to maintain the scroll position

Forms Data Controls :: Dropdownlist Width / Can Set The Width Property Of The List To Display Wider Than The Field Itself

Oct 4, 2010

I have a dropdown list in a gridview field. The DataValueField for the ddl is an 8 digit item code. The text to display through will be quite longer, 40-60 characters because it will combine the item code and item name into a single string. I don't want the dropdownlist field to be that wide though, only what is displayed when the ddl is selected.In Access you can set the width property of the list to display wider than the field itself. Is there that capability in ASP.NET and if so where do I find it?

Forms Data Controls :: Max Width Of GridView?

Jun 2, 2010

i Have a dynamic column gridview control in a page hosted in sharepoint. Grid is binded to an XMl and placed inside a Div control. I have set rowstyle-wrap=false and width=100% and overflow of parent Div to auto

There are only 2 columns in grid that can have long size text data (with and without spaces between words).

Problem

1. When grid has lot of columns (say 20), a scrollbar appears on the IE window(as page content is out of windows size); but the two columns that have long text values in them, gets wrapped.

2. when grid has less columns (say 5), no scrollbar appears in IE windows(as page content fits within window).but the same two long text columns, doesn't get wrapped and render in a single line.


Is there any max width of gridview? I want that grid should take all the space (as per content) and show scrollbar; the content should not get wrapped.

how to make grid content not to wrap and expand to any width.

Forms Data Controls :: Unable To Set GridView Column Width

Sep 23, 2010

I have been searching the internet for a solution to this for hours. I have tried all of the following methods to set the column width on my GridView control:

1. <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="ColumnHeader" ItemStyle-Width="100px">
2. <ItemStyle Width="100px" Wrap="False" />
3. GridView.Columns[0].ItemStyle.Width = 100 both on the PageLoad event and, out of desperation, on the RowDataBound event.

I have tried these settings by themselves and in combination. I have also experimented with different CSS width settings for the GridView and its containing <div> (including none) to no avail. The GridView columns are always equally spaced and wrap the row description text in the first column in a rather ugly fashion. As this needs to be fixed for a presentation to a client on Monday, I would be eternally grateful to anyone who could point me in the right direction.

Forms Data Controls :: GridView Column Set Fixed Width

Dec 27, 2010

I am trying to set the width of each column within my gridview. Problem is that none of it is working. I have tried setting the whole grid view to 100% and then break down each individual column to a certain percentage, tried manually adjusting Header Width, Item Style width, tried setting it in code, I have tried just about everything and the column doesn't want to budge. The only time I can adjust the width of the column/cell is when I do it in SQL, but because they are requesting the tooltip to preview the comment I would like to pursue my options doing it on the page itself.

//Code protected void grdComments_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{//Setting the tooltip for the comment column and column width.
grdComments.Columns[3].ItemStyle.Width = Unit.Pixel(100);
//e.Row.Cells[3].Width = Unit.Pixel(100);
e.Row.Cells[3].Wrap = false;
e.Row.Cells[3].Style["overflow"] = "hidden";
e.Row.Cells[3].Style["text-overflow"] = "ellipsis";
e.Row.Cells[3].ToolTip = e.Row.Cells[3].Text; }

I have a gridview and I want to fix the column size to a certain size regardless of the length of the data in a given cell.

I have tried everythign I can think of from

gvwProjects.Columns[1].ItemStyle.Width
gvwProjects.Columns[1].ItemStyle.Wrap

Forms Data Controls :: Set The Columns Width To Fixed Value In Gridview?

Oct 25, 2010

how to set the fixed value with the columns in a grid view? my code works fine if you have normal words with space. If the length of the whole field is more than its width, It would come to the next line. But If we type big word without any space like "WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW", It would by default increase the width and disturbs the layout.
