Hi

Are there any events that fire just when the user begins/ends resizing a column header?

I am using the diagram.LaneGrid.CellBoundsChanged which is great, but as you would expect it fires multiple times if the resize caused multiple cells' bounds to change. A single events for the start/finish of a resize would also be very useful.

Also, is there any way to increase the size of the area that the system registers as being the boundary between one columnheader and the next. Some of our alpha testers are having difficulty hovering their mouse over the boundary and getting the resize icon to show.

By all means move this all to feature suggestions if that's a more appropriate place.

Thanks, Tom

We have added two new events to the Grid class - HeaderStartResizing (raised immediately after the user initiates a header resize operation) and HeaderResized (raised after the resize operation has completed successfully). Both events supply a reference to the affected header in their event arguments. Additionally, we have increased the size of the header resize area from 2 to 4 millimeters.

Interactively - no. If it is important for you, we can add an option to enable this functionality.

Brilliant, those sound really useful.

I think it would be pretty useful in some scenarios. In our system the lane title is only allowed be one line, so we get the ... truncations. I suspect it won't be long before someone tries to resize the header to see the full text.

However, this would only really be useful if all of the nodes to the right of the lane to be resized move and keep their relative positions within their lanes.

Maybe one for future consideration if it will be useful to others too.

Thanks for all your help on these,

Tom

Thanks to both of you
