Datagrid Column Text

[Li Pang]

Hi,

I created a datagrid with several columns, one has text align right,
however, the last letter of the column head is hard to see. I tried to add
some spaces but they are supressed at the run time, I want to know how to add
some spaces at the end of the head text, or is it possible to set text align
center for the head and text align center for the data on this column?

thanks in advance

Re: Datagrid Column Text

try to inrease the width of the column header this should solve your
problem.

i forgot to mentioned that increasing the width of the column header
means u have to specify numeric value in width property of the column.

Hi,

Here is a link to columnstyle that allows you to align the data
and header differently.

Lucky,

The width is big enough. Only the last letter seems hard to see when using
text align right. I can add some chararcters like "_" or "." but not nice as
space.
