How to customize the column name in GroupDropArea of WinForms GridGroupingControl ?
Column customization
The column
name in GroupDropArea can be customized by using PrepareViewStyleInfo and QueryColWidth events
of GridGroupDropArea.
C#
void Model_QueryColWidth(object sender, Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridRowColSizeEventArgs e)
{
GridGroupDropAreaModel grid = sender as GridGroupDropAreaModel;
if (grid.Model[2, e.Index].CellValue != null && grid.Model[2, e.Index].CellValue.ToString().Contains("\n"))
{
GridStyleInfo style = grid.Model[2, e.Index];
e.Size = this.SetTextWidth(style.Text, style.GdipFont) + 20;
e.Handled = true;
}
}
//Customize the column name in GropuDropArea.
void GridGroupDropArea_PrepareViewStyleInfo(object sender, Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridPrepareViewStyleInfoEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Style.CellValue.ToString().Contains("\n"))
{
e.Style.Text = e.Style.CellValue.ToString().Replace("\n", " ");
}
}
//Customize the column name in GroupCaptionCell.
void gridGroupingControl1_QueryCellStyleInfo(object sender, GridTableCellStyleInfoEventArgs e)
{
if (e.TableCellIdentity.TableCellType == GridTableCellType.GroupCaptionCell)
{
//To change the group caption text.
e.Style.Text = e.Style.Text.Replace("\n", " ");
}
}
Private Sub Model_QueryColWidth(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridRowColSizeEventArgs)
Dim grid As GridGroupDropAreaModel = TryCast(sender, GridGroupDropAreaModel)
If grid.Model(2, e.Index).CellValue IsNot Nothing AndAlso grid.Model(2, e.Index).CellValue.ToString().Contains(Constants.vbLf) Then
Dim style As GridStyleInfo = grid.Model(2, e.Index)
e.Size = Me.SetTextWidth(style.Text, style.GdipFont) + 20
e.Handled = True
End If
End Sub
'Customize the column name in GropuDropArea.
Private Sub GridGroupDropArea_PrepareViewStyleInfo(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Grid.GridPrepareViewStyleInfoEventArgs)
If e.Style.CellValue.ToString().Contains(Constants.vbLf) Then
e.Style.Text = e.Style.CellValue.ToString().Replace(Constants.vbLf, " ")
End If
End Sub
'Customize the column name in GroupCaptionCell.
Private Sub gridGroupingControl1_QueryCellStyleInfo(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As GridTableCellStyleInfoEventArgs)
If e.TableCellIdentity.TableCellType = GridTableCellType.GroupCaptionCell Then
'To change the group caption text.
e.Style.Text = e.Style.Text.Replace(Constants.vbLf, " ")
