[Gambas-user] GridView.ClientWidth yields incorrect size on Form_Open

[Denis Crowther]

Hmmm, so that made me curious..  :-)

So I threw a new GridView on a form and found that expand in either of 
these works as it should.

I did notice that all the columns need to be sized at the same time.

'---------------------------------------------
Public Sub Form_Open()

Dim iWide As Integer = 65

   With GridView1
     .Columns.Count = 3
     .Header = GridView.Horizontal

     ' .Columns[0].Width = iWide
     ' '-1 here makes the col really small
     ' '.Columns[1].Width = -1
     ' .Columns[1].Expand = True
     ' .Columns[2].Width = iWide
   End With


   For x As Integer = 1 To 10
     GridView1.Rows.Count += 1
     GridView1[x - 1, 0].Text = "test: " & x
     GridView1[x - 1, 1].Text = "rwrggrg rgrgreg reg erg reg last"
     GridView1[x - 1, 2].Text = Str(x)
   Next

End
'---------------------------------------------
Public Sub GridView1_Arrange()

Dim iWide As Integer = 65
   With GridView1
     .Columns[0].Width = iWide
     .Columns[1].Expand = True
     '-1 here resized the col to suit the data as expected
     '.Columns[1].Width = -1
     .Columns[2].Width = iWide
   End With
End
'---------------------------------------------
