Hi,

If I set the width of a column to -1 to get it to autosize as per the documentation it does not work.
I have my grid set at a fixed width and Scrollbars set to Both. Some columns have a fixed width and 2 columns that are next to each other have an auto width. The 1st auto width column ends up with a width of 0 and the 2nd auto width column takes up the space of both columns.
Please advise on how to use auto width columns.
My markup is below:
<eo:Grid ID="GridReport" runat="server" Font-Names="Trebuchet MS, Calibri, Verdana"
ColumnHeaderDividerImage="00050103" GridLines="Horizontal" ColumnHeaderHeight="24"
FullRowMode="true" GridLineColor="220, 223, 228" BorderColor="220, 223, 228"
RunningMode="Server" ItemHeight="25" AllowColumnReorder="false" Height="250px" Width="800px"
AllowPaging="true" OnPageIndexChanged="GridReport_PageIndexChanged" ScrollBars="Both">

Hi,

You can not have more than one "auto-width" column. The way auto-width works is, deducting all other fixed width columns from the fixed total width, what's left is for the only "auto-width" column. If you specify multiple "auto-width" columns, then only one will be treated as such.

Thanks!
David
