Hi,

I have a problem with a user control in a DataGrid.
I have add the usercontrol to the DataGridTemplateColumn, like this

XML

<DataGridTemplateColumn Header="Test" Width="250" x:Name="ColTest" >
  <DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
    <DataTemplate x:Name="ColTestDataTemplate">
      <SpecialTextbox Name="foobar" Text="Incorrect width" />
    </DataTemplate>
  </DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn>

The usercontrol is also shown, unfortunately the width of the usercontrol is not the width of the column.

I have been looking for a few hours, but unfortunately found nothing.
Maybe someone knows a solution

Thanks and sorry for my bad english

Solution 1

Try setting HorizontalAlignment[^] to Stretch[^] for the UserControl ... ( and possibly check that the width is not set in xaml for the UserControl )

Since he wants the width to fit the parent, he probably needs to try setting the HorizontalAlignment to Stretch.

Oops, fixed it, thanks :)

No problem. I voted it 5 as it's a good suggestion, although we don't know at the moment if it will solve the OP's problem.

Well, thank you Nishant :)

My 5. Layout can be tricky but always solvable due to sufficient flexibility of WPF :-)
