Forms Data Controls :: Stopping Columns From Shifting In A Gridview?
Jul 20, 2010
I have a GridView and the users are complaining about the columns shifting around. The width of the columns automatically adjusts to fit the size of their contents, and expand as the page is made bigger.I need to be able to set the width of the column so that it takes up the same size, regardless of the size of the contents or size of the page.I am using templated in my grid, but there is not width attribute
sp:TemplateField> or in <HeaderTemplate> or <ItemTemplate>
Two questions. First, is HeaderStyle-Width a preferred/best way to manage column width in a grid view? And second, how do I suppress the genration of the the additional code?
in asp.net page user able to select gridview Columns, and it will hide remaining columns and that selection done by check box with column list bellow is Image link , what exactly I am looking for [URL] it look bellow after selection of column done [URL]
I'm binding a gridview from a webservice with 30 columns and 10 rows, I need to print the same in a PORTRAIT, for that i decided to display columns as rows and
I have a gridview with an objectdatasource whose select method calls a stored procedure. In the select method I test for an output parameter from the stored proc which can indicate certain business rule problems, such as no rows returned. I throw an exception in the select method in these cases which bubbles back to the selected event of the objectdatasource.
In objectdatasource.selected, I set e.ExceptionHandled = True, so that further processing of the gridview stops, including databinding.
The problem I have is that the objectdatasource select method executes again, even though I have set e.ExceptionHandled to true. This then cause problems with my messaging to the user. Am I missing something about the purpose of e.ExceptionHandled.
A question from a non-web-designer about the preferred - and least browser-sensitive - way of shifting users controls a few pixels horizontally and vertically if I'm using divs instead of table cells.
If you look at this top part of a web page, you will notice that the lower menu is a couple of pixels too far to the left and a couple pixels too high. (Note right edge doesn't line up with the menu above it. Also, tops of image buttons to the right of the lower control are clipped.)
Can I position them absolutely, or use white space to shift the lower one into alignment?
ie if I set AutoGenerateColumns=false and define Template Field, Sorting is not done. Can Anyone tell me how to sort a Gridview when AutoGenerateColumns is set to false and Template Field is defined?
I am using Visual Studio 2010 where I have a gridview that displays many columns and because of that the user has to scroll horizontally in order to view the rest of the columns. Is there a way to split the columns so that each row will contain some columns and some columns underneath them? For example, I have 10 columns where each row will show 5 columns with their headers and the other 5 columns below with their headers.
I need to create a grid where the users can see all the memberships, and have a line of checkboxes for each existing role, and be able to check/uncheck roles to allow access authority.
I managed to build a datatable that adds columns and displays them properly, but I have not been able to programatically add columns to the grid based on whatever roles are stored in the system.
I can display the users and their roles by just specifying AutoGenerateColumns="true" when I do that, the checkboxes are grayed out, and the users do not want to have to click a button to open them up.
Here is what I can't figure out.
How do I programatically add columns to the GridView? I have some code in Pageload, but it doesn't work, so it is commented out?How do I turn on all the rows for the entire GridView to edit mode? How do I access the column name for the role they just checked so that I know what to add with the ystem.Web.Security.Roles.AddUserToRole(UserName, Role)?
I want to get the values from a cell in a gridview so can I do that without selecting a row. Its something like this I have a drop downmenu and based on the value selected in the dropdown menu I have to change the presentation of gridview without going to the database.
I've created a DataTable by programming and I'v inserted a new DataRow into it, I binded it with a gridview (It's ok), but that new row has many columns, how can I merge all columns of that new row and set the value will be show of that row.
Here is my snipet:
Store1
row [Column1],[Column2],[Column3]
row [Column1],[Column2],[Column3]
Store2 (new row I've created and I want to merge all columns and show the value is Store2)
I have a gridView that returns 12 columns / Fields. I want to only allow 6 columns per row and on the 7th have the 7th column move below the first 6. Example: ...
I have a gridView that I want to only show 5 columns per "Row". To explain, lets say I have a gridView that has a total of 20 columns. Normally this would mean that the grid would show all 20 columns in a single row side by side:col1 col2 col3 col4 col5 col6 col7 col8 col9 col10 ... etcI want it to instead show the columns underneath each other like so:
of course the prespective data associated with the columns would show below each column header.I have read some posts and they are pointing me to a repeator but I am not sure how I would impliment a method like that. Any suggestions / examples of ways you have done so or read about?
I have gridview which auto generate column is false, and I add some template columns, databind with a class ClassA . it works fine. now, I need add some columns to this gridview. the problem is: I do not know the # of columns that will be added (it is dynamic), and the data with these columns is in ClassA, but it is a array (or list). so, there is no public property for these data, only the array.
now, what I did is: I dynamically add template column to the gridview (column header ...), so, it shows the correct columns in the gridview, but how can I bind the data? I found some example, i.e.
[URL]
but it is for aleady know the data field (which is a public property in the class). all I have is just a array, and I need bind them to the newly created columns in sequence.
i am having a gridview in which all columns get dynamically added, i applied sorting in it, all column added as boundcolumn get sort properly but two column which are added as templated column do'nt get sort. Though my dataview have these column as it is.
want to merge the columns into gridview example SELECT b.TableName,c.ColumnName,a.DataProfileAction,(a.ForeignTable+'/'+a.DataProfileAction) As MergeRecords From DataProfiling As a Inner Join TableList As b ON a.TableId= b.TableId Inner Join MetaDataTable As c ON a.ColumnId=c.ColumnIdquery working.. suppose if any one column empty while binding times it come as empty..
I have a GridView and check box in one of the columns.what i need to do is, if the checkbox is checked i need to replace it with a Tick Mark image instead of checkbox, otherwise leave the column blank.
