New Post: DataGridControl AutoCreateColumns Auto-Size Columns

Hi,

Using the Loaded event to call column.GetFittedWidth() through a dispatcher works as expected in Toolkit v3.0 and up.
Here's my complete sample :

<Window x:Class="WpfApplication118.MainWindow"
        xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
        xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
        xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
        xmlns:local="clr-namespace:WpfApplication118"
        mc:Ignorable="d"
        xmlns:xcdg="http://schemas.xceed.com/wpf/xaml/datagrid"
        Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525">
    <Grid>
    <xcdg:DataGridControl ItemsSource="{Binding}" 
                          Loaded="DataGridControl_Loaded"
                          AutoCreateColumns="True" />
  </Grid>
</Window>

 public partial class MainWindow : Window
  {
    public MainWindow()
    {
      InitializeComponent();

      this.DataContext = new ObservableCollection<MyItemViewModel>()
      {
        new MyItemViewModel() { ID = 1, FirstName = "Brian the top Jones", Birthday = DateTime.Now },
        new MyItemViewModel() { ID = 10, FirstName = "Michael the great one", Birthday = DateTime.Now },
        new MyItemViewModel() { ID = 100, FirstName = "Tom the coolest QB on earth", Birthday = DateTime.Now },
        new MyItemViewModel() { ID = 1000, FirstName = "Mark Fitzpatrickeneski von Guarted", Birthday = DateTime.Now },
      };

    }

    private void DataGridControl_Loaded( object sender, RoutedEventArgs e )
    {
      var grid = sender as DataGridControl;

      this.Dispatcher.Invoke( DispatcherPriority.ApplicationIdle, new Action( delegate ()
      {
        foreach( Column column in grid.Columns )
        {
          double width = column.GetFittedWidth();
          if( width > 0 )
            column.Width = width;
        }
      } ) );
    }
  }

  public class MyItemViewModel
  {
    public int ID
    {
      get;
      set;
    }

    public string FirstName
    {
      get;
      set;
    }

    public DateTime Birthday
    {
      get;
      set;
    }
  }

a) 125 is the default column's width

b) Can you submit a complete sample if it's still not working for you ?
Thanks.
