SOLVED : Multiline behaving unpredicatbly.

Hi !!

Platform: c#.Net 2.0
O.S: Windows Xp

I have property grid on a form .I am adding multiline child items in propertygird dynamically .and these items are selected from next form.

PropertyGridItem itemP;
        itemP =someCategory.AddChildItem(PropertyItemType.PropertyItemMultilineString, text for child item, "");
        itemP.EditStyle = PropertyItemEditStyle.EditStyleMultiLine;
        itemP.Id = 1;
        itemP.MultiLinesCount = 100;
        itemP.Height = 80;

Now my problem is . Items are added as multiline only for the first time. Later on whenever I add items from next form . They are added as normal single line items. same code is executed (above) for adding the items.

I have kept variableItemsHeight = true. Is there any other property which needs to be set whenever propery grid is active.
I am confused.
Please suggest !

Hi Aaron!
Thanks for replying.

This time my problem is different . I am able to add multiline items. (I wanted unlimited number of lines). So that is not the issue .

Actually when I create categories and add items into it . they are added as multiline itemsonly for the first time. But next time when again items are added into previously created category They are added as single line item only.


Now I observed one thing . When close and again expand the category.
Now it shows same added item as multiline.

So i tried doing same programmatically .By
Category.expanded = false;
category.expanded = true;

 But I am not able to do .
Could you suggest something?

Hi Aaron !

I could do solve it. My category was already expanded. So I first made it Expanded  = false and again Expanded = True.

So I can see my added item as multiline. It solved right now.
Thanks once again .

Hi Aaron !

I am just a developer , Decisions about upgradation of code jock depends upon my project magr. But by the way is it free or we need to spend some extra charges for it. So accordingly I can suggest my seniors.

And updating status of post . I will do that. Thanks for the  suggestion.
