  I am working with the C1FlexGrid for Windows Forms and need to figure out how to auto-resize the columns to cause the Flexgrid to fill the available horizontal space. I saw that there is an “Expand Last Column” property but that looks terrible if the last column is not something like a text field that can be expanded in that way. In the application I am working on, this last column contains a dollar value and expanding it to fill all of the space looks terrible. I need to get all of the columns to resize proportionally in the way that the default .NET DataGridControl does. Does anyone have any suggestions?

  Hello,

  Please use the following line of code to resize all of the columns proportionally.

  
    private void AutoSize()
          {
              var gridWidth = c1FlexGrid1.Width;
              gridWidth =( gridWidth - c1FlexGrid1.Cols[0].Width);
              for (int i =1;i<c1FlexGrid1.Cols.Count-1;i++)
              {
                  c1FlexGrid1.Cols[i].Width = gridWidth / 4;
              }
              
          }
  
  

  Hope it helps.

  Thanks.

  You could also use the “c1FlexGrid1.Cols[i].StarWidth” property, introduced in some 2018 version: set it to “*” for all columns which should fill the available width.

  Best regards
