DataGridViewColumnHeadersHeightSizeMode Enumeration
Defines values for specifying how the height of the column headers is adjusted.
Assembly: System.Windows.Forms (in System.Windows.Forms.dll)
By default, users can resize the height of the column headers. You can disable this ability to set a fixed height or you can use the automatic sizing mode to fit the height to the header contents. Automatic sizing also disables user resizing.
This enumeration is used by the DataGridView control ColumnHeadersHeightSizeMode property and AutoResizeColumnHeadersHeight method.
For more information about sizing modes, see Sizing Options in the Windows Forms DataGridView Control.
The following code example illustrates the use of this enumeration in a display-only, non-interactive DataGridView control.
// Configures the appearance and behavior of a DataGridView control. private void InitializeDataGridView() { // Initialize basic DataGridView properties. dataGridView1.Dock = DockStyle.Fill; dataGridView1.BackgroundColor = Color.LightGray; dataGridView1.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.Fixed3D; // Set property values appropriate for read-only display and // limited interactivity. dataGridView1.AllowUserToAddRows = false; dataGridView1.AllowUserToDeleteRows = false; dataGridView1.AllowUserToOrderColumns = true; dataGridView1.ReadOnly = true; dataGridView1.SelectionMode = DataGridViewSelectionMode.FullRowSelect; dataGridView1.MultiSelect = false; dataGridView1.AutoSizeRowsMode = DataGridViewAutoSizeRowsMode.None; dataGridView1.AllowUserToResizeColumns = false; dataGridView1.ColumnHeadersHeightSizeMode = DataGridViewColumnHeadersHeightSizeMode.DisableResizing; dataGridView1.AllowUserToResizeRows = false; dataGridView1.RowHeadersWidthSizeMode = DataGridViewRowHeadersWidthSizeMode.DisableResizing; // Set the selection background color for all the cells. dataGridView1.DefaultCellStyle.SelectionBackColor = Color.White; dataGridView1.DefaultCellStyle.SelectionForeColor = Color.Black; // Set RowHeadersDefaultCellStyle.SelectionBackColor so that its default // value won't override DataGridView.DefaultCellStyle.SelectionBackColor. dataGridView1.RowHeadersDefaultCellStyle.SelectionBackColor = Color.Empty; // Set the background color for all rows and for alternating rows. // The value for alternating rows overrides the value for all rows. dataGridView1.RowsDefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Color.LightGray; dataGridView1.AlternatingRowsDefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Color.DarkGray; // Set the row and column header styles. dataGridView1.ColumnHeadersDefaultCellStyle.ForeColor = Color.White; dataGridView1.ColumnHeadersDefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Color.Black; dataGridView1.RowHeadersDefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Color.Black; // Set the Format property on the "Last Prepared" column to cause // the DateTime to be formatted as "Month, Year". dataGridView1.Columns["Last Prepared"].DefaultCellStyle.Format = "y"; // Specify a larger font for the "Ratings" column. using (Font font = new Font( dataGridView1.DefaultCellStyle.Font.FontFamily, 25, FontStyle.Bold)) { dataGridView1.Columns["Rating"].DefaultCellStyle.Font = font; } // Attach a handler to the CellFormatting event. dataGridView1.CellFormatting += new DataGridViewCellFormattingEventHandler(dataGridView1_CellFormatting); }
