This example demonstrates how to automatically change your column caption based on the column width. So, when an end-user resizes a column, the column caption is not truncated.
To enable this functionality in your project, execute the following steps:
1. Drop the ColumnCaptionHelper component onto your form from the VS Toolbox.
2. Assign your GridView to its View property.
3. Set its Enabled property to true.
4. If you want to automatically populate items from existing GridView columns, enable the AutoFill option.
5. Then, create required caption items in the CaptionItems collection and specify required captions. Use the ';' char as a separator. (You can change it in the component's code if it's necessary)
That's it. Once the column is resized, it will automatically display the most suitable caption based on its size.
