To reproduce: - Add a grid to a blank form. - Group the grid on a single column and expand a group row. - Add and then remove a summary row by calling the clear method. - You will notice that the summary row is not removed. Workaround: reset the groups after the summary rows are cleared: radGridView1.SummaryRowsBottom.Clear(); List<GroupDescriptor> list = new List<GroupDescriptor>(); foreach (var item in radGridView1.GroupDescriptors) { list.Add(item); } radGridView1.GroupDescriptors.Clear(); radGridView1.MasterTemplate.Refresh(); foreach (var item in list) { radGridView1.GroupDescriptors.Add(item); } radGridView1.MasterTemplate.Refresh();
