Cell Word wrap not working

created 8 years ago

HI

We have set appearanceCell.TextOptions.WordWrap = WordWrap.Wrap;
on the column, but its doesn't wrap, instead shows ellipsis

Can you please suggest how to fix it?

Thanks

Hello Mohit,

If you wish to show the cell data in several lines, you need to assign the RepositoryItemMemoEdit object to the required column via the GridColumn.ColumnEdit property and enable the GridView.OptionsBehavior.RowAutoHeight option.Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

      Hello,

      You can assign RepositoryItemMemoEdit to the GridColumn.ColumnEdit property regardless of whether a column is editable or not. So, I suggest you assign this repository item for all required columns.
      Please test this approach and let me know if it meets your requirements.

        Done, still doesn't work.

        I have set the below as well for the couple of columns

        OptionsView.RowAutoHeight = true;
        Columns["Message"].AppearanceCell.TextOptions.Trimming = Trimming.None;
        Columns["Timestamp"].AppearanceCell.TextOptions.Trimming = Trimming.None;
        Columns["Message"].AppearanceCell.TextOptions.WordWrap = WordWrap.Wrap;
        Columns["Timestamp"].AppearanceCell.TextOptions.WordWrap = WordWrap.Wrap;
        Can you please send a sample project with the implementation?

          Hi Mohit,

          Yes of course. I've created a project illustrating the approach described by Nadezhda.

          Review it and let us know your results.
