BaseColumn.AllowResizing Property

Gets or sets whether an end-user can resize this column. This is a dependency property.

Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Grid

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Grid.v19.1.Core.dll

Declaration

C#

public DefaultBoolean AllowResizing { get; set; }

VB.NET

Public Property AllowResizing As DefaultBoolean

Property Value

Type	Description
DefaultBoolean	A DefaultBoolean enumeration value that specifies whether an end-user can resize this column.

Available values:

Name	Description
True	Corresponds to a Boolean value of true.
False	Corresponds to a Boolean value of false.
Default	The value is determined by the current object’s parent object setting (e.g., a control setting).

Remarks

End-users are allowed to resize columns if the view’s TableView.AllowResizing property is set to true. Individual columns provide the AllowResizing property, allowing the default behavior specified by the view, to be overridden. Setting this property to ‘True’ or ‘False’ overrides the default behavior. This can be useful when it is required to prevent an end-user from resizing individual columns.

If the AllowResizing property is set to ‘Default’, the ability to resize columns is controlled by the view’s TableView.AllowResizing property. In this instance, to obtain whether an end-user can resize a column, use the BaseColumn.ActualAllowResizing property.
