Extra Column to the Right of DGV

Hi,

Dropped DGV in a form -> Edit Columns and added all DGV column types. But instead of ten columns, I got an extra one.

How do I get rid of this extra column. I already set ColumnsCount=10 in code behind but to no avail.

Thanks,

Cris

Do you mean the column with the grid menu?

If yes, that's not a column, it's the column visibility menu (ShowColumnVisibilityMenu property - can set it to false to hide it). With one of the early Material-3 themes the icon was not visible so it looked like an extra column.

If not, please send me a screenshot and also check what name the column got if it's visible in the columns editor.

Hi Luca,

As shown in the image attached, it is to the left of the grid menu (as you call it).

Also, take note of the extra characters appearing on the upper-left corner of the DGV.

Regards,

Cris

OK, see it. That should be the blank area between the last column and the visibility menu. If you set the columns to AutoSizeMode=Fill then they will spring to fill the grid. I also see the "$h" text in the column header of the row header column. Which I have seen before but could never reproduce but now I can after resetting some style properties. So that will also be logged and fixed.
