Usage

The AutoWidth property takes one of these numeric values:
  • 0 - No AutoWidth: This is the default value.
  • 1 - AutoWidth is computed for visible rows (monotonic) and does not decrease when the widest column is reduced when scrolling.
  • 2 - AutoWidth is computed for visible rows (non-monotonic)
  • 3 - AutoWidth is computed for all retrieved rows.
You can set the AutoWidth property:
  • In the painter - in the Properties view, select one of the values in the drop-down list for the AutoWidth property.
  • In scripts - set the AutoWidth property to one of the numeric values.
