GridView: ArgumentOutOfRangeException raised with pixelWidth < 0 in call to RenderTargetBitmap constructor when adding a group descriptor

The following exception is raised when adding a ColumnGroupDescriptor to the GroupDescriptors property of a RadGridView. This bug is data specific and I've only been able to duplicate it with a large data set but the issue seems like it could be addressed without the actual data, given that the code causing the issue is apparently passing a pixelWidth < 0.

System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: 'The parameter value must be greater than zero.
Parameter name: pixelWidth'

Hello Stephen,

I am glad to hear that the suggested code helped.

I am a bit concerned that patching this internally will hide issues with the DisplayContent's FrameworkElement, because no picture will be displayed and no exception will be thrown, but despite this we've decided to approve the report and add a blind fix at some point in the future. I've changed its status accordingly.

Thanks Martin, your pre-measure code prevents the exception.

 

Unfortunately I don't have a separate project to provide and attempting to duplicate the grid from our application into a separate project would be very costly + still need a large amount of data (which I can't give out) to duplicate it.

Hello Stephen,

I've tested this, but couldn't reproduce the problem. That said, can you send over a sample project recreating the problem?

In the meantime, it seems the issue occurs because the deserialized DisplayContent property of ColumnGroupDescriptor is a visual (a FrameworkElement), which at the specific moment seems to have its ActualWidth/ActualHeight evaluated to double.NaN or double.PositiveInfinity. This causes the RenderTargetBitmap constructor to throw the reported error.

To avoid this, you can modify your Sage.EstDataSource.Wpf.RadGridViewSerializer.DeserializeGroupDescriptors(Telerik.Windows.Controls.GridView.GridViewDataControl grid, System.Func<string, bool> isRenamableColumn, System.Xml.XmlReader reader, bool skipDeserializeGroups) method. Basically, when deserializing the DisplayContent property of the ColumnGroupDescriptor, you can check if it is a FrameworkElement and if so pre-measure it like this:

 if (deserializedDisplayContent is FrameworkElement deserializedElement)
 {
     var measureSize = new Size(100, 100);
     deserializedElement.Measure(measureSize);
     deserializedElement.Arrange(new Rect(measureSize));
     deserializedElement.InvalidateMeasure();
     deserializedElement.InvalidateArrange();
     deserializedElement.UpdateLayout();
 }

columnGroupDescriptor.DisplayContent = deserializedDisplayContent;

Can you try this and let me know if it helps?
