C# DataGridview ColumnHeader Multi Line Text Center or Right Alignment

Question

I am facing a problem in C# Datagridview that I have multi line text in the ColumnHeaders of that Datagridview and I want the text to be centered in both lines. Currently, its showing centered text only when there is single line, but in case of multiline, it behaves like this:

|L1        |
|L2 Text   | 

And I want it to be appeared as

|    L1    |
| L2 Text. |

I tried properties

DG.ColumnHeadersDefaultCellStyle.Alignment = DataGridViewContentAlignment.MiddleCenter;
DG.DefaultCellStyle.Alignment = DataGridViewContentAlignment.MiddleCenter;

I don't have much points to upload image or screenshot, so sorry for that. Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

Answer 1

I got it finally. This piece of code worked for me.

dgv.AutoSizeColumnsMode = DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.AllCellsExceptHeader;
dgv.ColumnHeadersDefaultCellStyle.Alignment = DataGridViewContentAlignment.MiddleCenter;

Thanks anyways.

Try this..

In your gridview load method.

foreach(DataGridViewColumn col in dgvYourGridName.Columns)
{
    col.HeaderCell.Style.Alignment = DataGridViewContentAlignment.MiddleCenter;

}

I know for a GridView you can add HorizontalContentAlignment="Center" and TextBlock.TextAlignment="Center" to the GridViewColumnHeader tag in the xaml.

<GridView>
    <GridViewColumn>
        <GridViewColumnHeader 
            HorizontalContentAlignment="Center"
            TextBlock.TextAlignment="Center" Content="Some String"/>

I assume something similar would work for DataGridView.
