By default, in the Property Builder for GridView, the defaults are:
Header Text Alignment = Middle Center
Text Alignment = Middle Left.
This means that EVERY time I create a new grid, I have to remember to make them both the same.
Why make them different? It makes the grid look rubbish whenthe defaults are used.
Hi, Ian,
Depending on the column type, different settings are preloaded in the Property Builder:
As you can see in the above screenshots, the text column and the decimal column have different text alignment.
The base GridViewColumn type has default values like this:
- TextAlignment >> ContentAlignment.MiddleLeft
- HeaderTextAlignment >> ContentAlignment.MiddleCenter
They are used for the text column.
