VS 2010 DataGridView Font Not Resizing?
Apr 27, 2012
I've set every setting I could find on the DataGridView to a specific font size however when the form it resides on loads I step through the code and put my cursor over the DataGridView1.Font.Size and it always shows 8.25 (I've set everything to 18).
What I'm trying to do is resize the DGV on load of the form to a percentage based on the size of the form relative to the size of the screen. Everything else on all of my other forms are resizing correctly but the DGV is not.
Here is the designer generated code for property reference:
vb.net
'DataGridView1
'
Me.DataGridView1.AllowUserToAddRows = False
[Code].....

I'm looking for help resizing a label's size and its font size based on its window size.That's to say when a window resizes, the label itself adjusts it font and background box to do the same.I know I'm triggering something on the Resize event of the form, but I don't know what.

I have a windows form that has custom alpha blended controls and a Graphical User Interface. One of my users has a larger system display enabled (125%) and the application expands by 25%. Is it possible to stop this happening and have the application stay at the normal size that I developed it at?

I have drawn out a datagridview onto my form at a certain size.But, say I have 3 rows of data and they dont fill the grid to its bottom. So I'm left with a bunch of empty grey color stuff in the rest of the control below.Is there any simple property/method that will fit the control size to just the rows loaded, or am I being too picky?

I have a big datagrid view, with datasource set to datatable with 15 columns, and about 350 rows.
When I change the size of the window with the datagridview it isn`t resizing smoothly.
How could I make the resizing more smoothly?

I have implemented couple of websites) drag and drop functionality between two Datagridviews (i.e to be able to add/remove columns on the fly). After much playing, I have managed to make this work, however it now presents a new issue - I cannot resize the columns.Below is the code for this, but I can't see how I would need to change to accomodate the resize (the drag and drop effects dont have it as an option, so I assume I need to stop the dodragdrop when the resize is taking place, but I'm not sure how to do this.

Having a bit of a nightmare with my application. I have developed my application in 1366 x 768. When moving onto other resolutions, the form looks totally wrong. Is there a way to have the application force itself to open up in a box that will fit the screen?(I'm more than happy to pay someone today or tomorrow who could look at making sure that my form gracefully up / down scales). This really is pretty urgent in that respect. If you have the ability to gracefully scale a form up / down and can do so for me either today or tomorrow, let me know of your price. (Possibly a bit naughty to pop this into the forums but I am willing to pay to get this sorted asap).

I have a Form (Form1) that contains a Panel inside the form. Inside that panel I want to load another form (Form2). This all works fine, however when I resize Form1 I want Form2 to resize aswell. The panel resizes fine but Form2 will not resize. Here is the code for Form1
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
[Code].....
Is there some sort of setting I am missing to be able to achieve this or is it not possible?

I have a datagrid and load data from a database in and can't find thesolution for a couple of propblems..
1) The columns from the DB is loaded in to the datagrid but the width of each column is very small and needs resizing to view all data everytime it loads. Can I programmically make the colums show wider annd fill the datagrid?
2) I load the columns using SELECT col1,col2,col3 from table; then load that in to the datagrid. col1 is a primary key so has to be loaded as I perform an update of edited data at the end. Can I somehow hide col1 so it does not show in the datagrid?

Where is the best place to resize a control on a form when a form is resized?....I'm currently using the Form1_SizeChanged event and seems to work ok. Also is there any need to check in the forms resize event if the form is in a minimized state before resizing controls?.,.. in VB6 if you try to resize a control when the form is minimized you get an error, but I don't see that happening in BV10 Form1_SizeChanged event, does VB10 automatically ignore resizing controls when a form is minimized or something?

I am creating a simple shape editor, much like the Visual Studio form designer. You can create shapes, select them and move/resize them using drag handles just like in Visual Studio or most other applications (Visio, etc).
I have run into some problems trying to implement a MinimumSize property for the shapes.First of all, this is how I'm resizing the shapes. Each shape has a Resize method, accepting two integers (dx and dy) that represent how much the shape must resize by, and one 'HitStatus', which determines in which direction the resize must take place (for example, from the TopLeft, or Bottom, or BottomRight, etc..)
What it does basically is use a large Select Case statement for the hit status. In each case, it changes the Bounds property of the shape (which determines the location and size), so that it is resized:

I have two forms, each with a DataGridView populated by using an sql statement. I have clearly done something at design time as one grid displays cells sized in 8.5 and the other in 9.5. I cannot find anything for Font in the DataGridView properties or in my code, but it would be a very useful feature to be able to control the Font size on my DataGridViews. How did I do it? I have no idea. Did I set something on the form itself? I remember changing the font size on a label and the next button I created took that size.

I am trying to set the "ColumnHeadersDefaultCellStyle" property to the "GoudyHvyface BT" font and it will not change from the default. I am using Visual Basic 2008.
I have set the property properly with no success.
I have tried to set the property in code, using the suggestions in the MSDN and it kept throwing errors.

I have a VB.Net application with a datagridview consisting of several columns. I would like to be able to increase/decrease the cell font size when the user resizes the cell so that the value fills the cell. I do not see a property that would do this and wonder if there is one or if there is some algorithm by which the appropriate font size can be calculated based on character count and cell width.

I would like to do, in a datagridview, to change the font row with the TextColor Value, and the background row with the BackGroundColor.
