Grouping Icons

03-18-2009, 2:46 PM
I cannot seem to get the + / - icons to change.  I really want to have them vertically aligned in the middle. But if I can't do that I want to get rid of them.  I have changed the row height of the groupheader rows, so my text is aligned in the middle but this icon is at the top!!!

pryan,

You can use SharpGrid's OutlineIcons property to tell SharpGrid how to display the group icons:

Unfortunately, there is no built-in feature to align group icons vertically but by using OutlineIcons property you can hide any group expand or collapse icons; or display user-defined group expand and collapse icons:

Thank you,

pryan,

You can set OutlineIcons property like this:

SGGrid1.OutlineIcons = sgCustomOutlineIcons

After this you can set groups expand and collapse icons, for example:

 SGGrid1.GroupExpandIcon = sgbipFirst + 3
 SGGrid1.GroupCollapseIcon = sgbipFirst + 2

I've attached a sample which demonstrates this.

Thank you,

Thanks. But as I said, I do not have the OutlineIcons as a property of the grid. I've attached a screenshot of the code with the intelli-search popup of properties of the grid. Am I missing something???

pryan,

This popup is showing OutlineIcons property in my testing. What is your operational system? Also, please ensure that you are using the latest Visual Basic 6 SP 6 and the latest SharpGrid version 2.3.0.1127 which can be found here:
