Property Value

Type	Description
Int32	An integer value specifying the current column width in pixels.

Remarks

WinForms UI

Column width in XtraGrid is controlled by the GridOptionsView.ColumnAutoWidth property, so actual column width can differ from the Width property value. If a ListView has many columns, their captions and content may be truncated. In this case, set the GridOptionsView.ColumnAutoWidth property to false to show a horizontal scrollbar. For information on how to access the Grid Control settings, refer to the following article: How to: Access the Grid Component in a List View.

ASP.NET Web Forms UI

In ASP.NET Web Forms XAF applications, this property has no effect because the web browser determines column widths based on the styles defined in the current theme and displayed content.

ASP.NET Core Blazor UI

Use the Width property to set a grid column width. This property value is passed to the actual ASP.NET Core Blazor Grid Control’s DxGridColumn.Width property in pixels.

When this property is not specified in the Model Editor, grid columns evenly occupy the whole grid width. When this property is set for a part of grid columns, other columns are resized according to the available space. When it is set for all columns, the grid control either displays a horizontal scrollbar or an empty space. This also happens after resizing columns in the Columns node designer (List View Columns Customization) and at runtime.
