Object Type Path to AllowColumnResizing
GridView
.OptionsCustomization .AllowColumnResizing

#Remarks

If the AllowColumnResizing property is set to true, end-users are allowed to change the width of grid columns by dragging a column header’s right edge. To prevent end-users from changing the width of individual columns set their OptionsColumn.AllowSize property to false.

To change the column’s width via code use its GridColumn.Width property.
