Grid width and height

[Peter StoevKeymaster]

Hi cirrus,

Is the Grid’s parent HTML element with fixed height? I am asking due to the reason that 80% x 0 = 0 and you can’t have 80% of nothing. This sample shows how to set the widget’s height in percentages: http://www.jqwidgets.com/jquery-widgets-demo/demos/jqxgrid/autosize.htm. Also all the Mobile Demos about jqxGrid are with size in percentages.

Hello,

I don’t know if in this case I am doing something wrong, but setting the height to 100% is not working.

Can it be that hard to allow over flow auto for the inner content?

I’m not as greedy as other about having it magically resize rows to perfection, if I have a lot of text I’m happy to truncate it, leave a signal (ie + 500 more characters + tooltip + expander), etc but making it fill its container seems like basic functionality.

It seems to work perfectly like this in fact. It’s just not setting its height properly.

I see the problem here, the splitter intermediate doesn’t use height 100% by default (personally, I believe that it should but perhaps not everyone is using splitter within containers). Fixing that to 100% works.

Hi joey,

Setting the height works perfectly well. We have online demos which prove that as well. So my suggestion is – check whether your container’s size is set or not, because 100% of something with auto-height is 0(auto) * 100% = 0

Example: http://www.jqwidgets.com/jquery-widgets-demo/demos/jqxgrid/autosize.htm?arctic and all mobile demos: http://www.jqwidgets.com/jquery-widgets-demo/mobiledemos/jqxgrid/index.htm?(android)#demos/jqxgrid/grid.htm
