This has been true for quite some time and is still there in the latest 24.0 version but I've never gotten to the bottom of it.

The height of a grid row when it is empty is a fraction, maybe one pixel, shallower than when data has been entered into it

You can see this by creating a simple input grid and enter a bit of text

When you move down a row look at the bottom of the grid and you will see the grid lines 'jump' down

This isn't really a great problem until you want to put two grids side by side and the grid lines are at slightly different heights depending on how much data is in each grid

It's almost like when it is measuring to see how high the empty row should be it's using a non system font or not allowing for descenders or something like that

Changing things in MeasureRow only effects rows with data not the ones without

Does anyone know how the grid control calculates the height of an empty row and is there any property I have missed that influences this ?

Thanks

The solution seems to be

Set the DefaultRowFreeHeight to 25

Set the FreeHeightMode to True
