Resizing issues when using a Grid Posted: Jun 08, 2010
 

When using a Datagrid as Content inside the Dialog control, I can get it it to resize using the SizeChanged attribute, but it is always quite off. I have to static a -40 to make it sit within the size of the Dialog. Obviously, this breaks as soon as you try to minimize as it becomes a negative value. Please help. I am obviously missing something vital. It's not that complicated and I'm almost there...


Here is my Code


MainPage.xaml


<my:Dialog x:Name="EmployeeDirectoryDialog" ButtonsVisibility="Collapsed" IsResizable="True" IsMinimizeEnabled="True" Canvas.Left="6" Canvas.Top="-43" Height="420" Width="785" Minimizing="Dialog_Minimizing" Minimized="Dialog_Minimized" Restoring="Dialog_Restoring" SizeChanged="EmployeeDirectoryDialog_SizeChanged">

                <Canvas x:Name="EmployeeDirectoryCanvas" >


                    <sdk:DataGrid ScrollViewer.VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Visible" ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Visible" AutoGenerateColumns="True" Canvas.Left="6" Canvas.Top="6" Height="380" Width="760" x:Name="EmployeeDirectoryGrid"  AutoGeneratingColumn="EmployeeGrid_AutoGeneratingColumn" />

                        <my1:BusyIndicator x:Name="Employeebusyindicator" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center"  IsBusy="False" Height="21" Width="154" Canvas.Left="336" Canvas.Top="212" />

                    

                </Canvas>

            </my:Dialog>



MainPage.xaml.cs


 private void EmployeeDirectoryDialog_SizeChanged(object sender, SizeChangedEventArgs e)

        {

            //EmployeeDirectoryDialog.Content = "H = " + e.NewSize.Height.ToString() + "W = " + e.NewSize.Width.ToString();


            double EmployeeDirectoryGridHeight = e.NewSize.Height - 40;

            double EmployeeDirectoryGridWidth = e.NewSize.Width - 40;

          EmployeeDirectoryGrid.Height = EmployeeDirectoryGridHeight;

          EmployeeDirectoryGrid.Width = EmployeeDirectoryGridWidth;

            

        }
