How can I align text in a DataGridView column?

Question

How can I align text in a DataGridView column? I am writing a .NET WinForms application.

Answer 1

this.dataGridView1.Columns["CustomerName"].DefaultCellStyle.Alignment = DataGridViewContentAlignment.MiddleRight; 

Answer 2

I know this is old, but for those dealing with this issue ... the MUG4N answer will align all columns that use the same default element. I do not use autogeneratecolumns, so this is unacceptable. Instead, I used:

 e.Column.DefaultCellStyle = new DataGridViewCellStyle(e.Column.DefaultCellStyle); e.Column.DefaultCellStyle.Alignment = DataGridViewContentAlignment.MiddleRight; 

e in this case has the form:

 Grd_ColumnAdded(object sender, DataGridViewColumnEventArgs e) 

Answer 3

To set text alignment in dataGridCell, you have two ways:

Set the alignment for a specific cell or set a row for each cell.

For a single column, go to Columns->DataGridViewCellStyle

or

For each column, go to RowDefaultCellStyle

The control panel is the same as the following:

Answer 4

You can edit all columns at once using this simple code in a Foreach loop.

  foreach (DataGridViewColumn item in datagridview1.Columns) { item.DefaultCellStyle.Alignment = DataGridViewContentAlignment.MiddleRight; } 

Answer 5

I have the same problem and I finally found the answer that there is an option in the properties in the datagridview, this is the name “Right to left”, just change it to “yes”

it is working!

PS: my native language is from right to left, and it works for me, maybe it does not work for other languages
