Hello everyone,
I am wanting to add an image to a column in a grid and it be centered. Using the image control directly leaves the image in the upper left. (0 - Clip) Allowing the image to grow causes pixilation. (1 - Isometric, 2 - Stretch)
I have placed the image in a button that this does the trick. It adds another problem that needs to be taken care of. The product uses the HighlightStyle 2 - Current row highlighting enabled with visual persistence. The CommandButton doesn't have a setting to be transparent.
What options might I have to have the color come through around a centered image to have the highlight color set as the background color of the button for the current selected row
Thank you, Tracy
How about trying it in a container?

Hi Frank,
That's where I went first. We have a process that changes the font size used in the grid. I was attempting to base centering the image on the container based on the container size. The container size doesn't change with the rowheight of the grid.
I didn't try an anchor. I may need to create a container base that holds the image control and the correct size and see what happens.
I'll get back to you.
Thank you, Tracy

I have spent a few days on this. I have a routine in our base form class that will resize the controls according to the DPI settings of the system. Since this happens in the form Init, the grid has already been initialized any centering of an object in a container in a grid column does not appear to display that way. I have used the DynamicCurrentControl property to call a method to be sure the image is centered. I have stepped through that code and see that it centers the image in the container. Once I release the break, visually the image is not centered in the container in the grid.
(note: DynamicCurrentControl is fired multiple times for each visible row in the grid when the data is changed)

Hey Tracy,
can you put together a simple example to share here and maybe one of us can have a look at it?
Frank.

Hi Frank,
I'll get something put together next week. What I have is working, just not as centered as it should be at all DPI scales.
