Hi,
I have a grid within a panel and I want to adjust the panel height based on the total height of the grid.
Using this code:
Me.Panel1.Height = Me.grid.TableElement.RowHeight * Me.grid.RowCount + grid.TableElement.TableHeaderHeight + 5
It seems to work ok if I use "Fluent" theme but not for "VisualStudio2012Light". I have attached a sample form.
Any explanation for this and how do I fix it?

Hi, Jure,
I have added the provided form files in a brand new project to test the grid's sizing on my end. Note that if you want to size the panel according to the height of the grid, you can set the RadGridView.AutoSize property to true. Thus, the grid control will be sized according to the required space for the rows. Once a new theme is applied, the grid will be resized accordingly. Then, you can set the panel's Height property to the RadGridView.Height property:
Me.grid.AutoSize = True
Me.Panel1.Height = Me.grid.HeightThe achieved result is illustrated below:
I hope this information helps. If you need any further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me.

Hi Dess,
sure that works yes, but in the real project I'm using several grids/panels with potentially thousands of rows and AutoSize slows things down significantly. That's why I wanted to use RowCount*RowHeight...
Hi, Jure,
Indeed, if you have more rows than you can see in the view, auto sizing the rows is not suitable. Using the calculation RowCount*RowHeight will give you the height that is needed for the data rows. This wouldn't include the column header row, the new row and the filtering row if it is enabled. That is why they also should be included to the calculation. The following article is useful for specifying the height for the different row types in the grid: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/controls/gridview/rows/resizing-rows
Public Sub New()
InitializeComponent()
Me.grid.AutoSize = False
Me.grid.EnableGrouping = False
Me.grid.ShowGroupPanelScrollbars = True
Me.grid.AllowSearchRow = True
Me.grid.TableElement.SearchRowHeight = 50
Me.grid.MasterView.TableAddNewRow.Height = 40
Me.grid.TableElement.TableHeaderHeight = 60
Me.grid.EnableFiltering = True
Me.grid.TableElement.FilterRowHeight = 50
End Sub Private Sub AdjustGridHeight()
Dim totalHeight = Me.grid.TableElement.RowHeight * Me.grid.RowCount
If Me.grid.ShowColumnHeaders Then
totalHeight = totalHeight + grid.TableElement.TableHeaderHeight
End If
If Me.grid.AllowAddNewRow Then
totalHeight = totalHeight + grid.MasterView.TableAddNewRow.Height
End If
If Me.grid.AllowSearchRow Then
totalHeight = totalHeight + grid.TableElement.SearchRowHeight
End If
If Me.grid.ShowGroupPanel Then
totalHeight = totalHeight + grid.GridViewElement.GroupPanelElement.Size.Height
End If
If grid.EnableFiltering Then
totalHeight = totalHeight + grid.TableElement.FilterRowHeight
End If
Me.Panel1.Height = totalHeight + 5
End Sub
