Best fit for grid bands

Hi Ioan ,
Honestly speaking, we do not have plans to implement this suggestion in the near future.
In your scenario, your task can be accomplished using the following piece of code:

C#
private void BestFitBands(AdvBandedGridView view)  
{  
    view.BeginUpdate();  
    view.OptionsView.ShowColumnHeaders = true;  
    foreach (BandedGridColumn col in view.Columns)  
        col.Caption = col.OwnerBand.Caption;  
    view.BestFitColumns();  
    view.OptionsView.ShowColumnHeaders = false;  
    view.EndUpdate();  
}  

Please try it in your application. Does it work for you?
Thanks
Dimitros

Well, I don't want to them all at once. But rather like for the columns by double clicking in between them. Is there a special event i can handle or do i have to handle a mouse click event and then use CalcHitInfo to check it falls between bands?

I tried the approach I mentioned, but it seems that column.BestFit() fits only the content of the cells. For instance, if the caption is "Very long string" and all cells ahave a value of 0, the width of the column will be very small and the majority of the caption text truncated. If I double click between regular columns, the column width fits the whole caption text.
In addition, is there a way I can measure the text myself because some of the bands have some editors in their headers and I want it to always be visible, so the best width would have a minimum of text_length + editor_length. This is the code that I wrote
void gridView_MouseDown(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Clicks == 2)
            {
                var cc = _gridView.CalcHitInfo(e.X, e.Y);
                if (cc.HitTest == BandedGridHitTest.BandEdge)
                {
                    var band = cc.Band;
                    int width = band.Width;
                    for (int i = 0; i < band.Columns.Count; i++)
                    {
                        var column = band.Columns[i];
                        column.Caption = band.Caption;
                        column.BestFit();
                        width = column.Width;
                        //or column.GetBestWidth(), same result. Both dont take the caption into account
                        break;
                    }
                    band.Width = width;
                }
            }
        }
