Calculates the ideal height of the specified row based on the specified criteria.

public:
 virtual int GetPreferredHeight(int rowIndex, System::Windows::Forms::DataGridViewAutoSizeRowMode autoSizeRowMode, bool fixedWidth);

public virtual int GetPreferredHeight (int rowIndex, System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewAutoSizeRowMode autoSizeRowMode, bool fixedWidth);

abstract member GetPreferredHeight : int * System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewAutoSizeRowMode * bool -> int
override this.GetPreferredHeight : int * System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewAutoSizeRowMode * bool -> int

Public Overridable Function GetPreferredHeight (rowIndex As Integer, autoSizeRowMode As DataGridViewAutoSizeRowMode, fixedWidth As Boolean) As Integer

Parameters

rowIndex: Int32

The index of the row whose preferred height is calculated.

autoSizeRowMode: DataGridViewAutoSizeRowMode

A DataGridViewAutoSizeRowMode that specifies an automatic sizing mode.

fixedWidth: Boolean

true to calculate the preferred height for a fixed cell width; otherwise, false.

Returns

Int32

The ideal height of the row, in pixels.

Exceptions

InvalidEnumArgumentException

autoSizeRowMode is not a valid DataGridViewAutoSizeRowMode value.

ArgumentOutOfRangeException

The rowIndex is not in the valid range of 0 to the number of rows in the control minus 1.

Examples

The following code example uses the GetPreferredHeight method to determine the new padding for a row that has been resized. This code example is part of a larger example provided in How to: Customize the Appearance of Rows in the Windows Forms DataGridView Control.

// Adjusts the padding when the user changes the row height so that 
// the normal cell content is fully displayed and any extra
// height is used for the content that spans multiple columns.
void dataGridView1_RowHeightChanged(object sender,
    DataGridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
    // Calculate the new height of the normal cell content.
    Int32 preferredNormalContentHeight =
        e.Row.GetPreferredHeight(e.Row.Index, 
        DataGridViewAutoSizeRowMode.AllCellsExceptHeader, true) -
        e.Row.DefaultCellStyle.Padding.Bottom;

    // Specify a new padding.
    Padding newPadding = e.Row.DefaultCellStyle.Padding;
    newPadding.Bottom = e.Row.Height - preferredNormalContentHeight;
    e.Row.DefaultCellStyle.Padding = newPadding;
}

' Adjusts the padding when the user changes the row height so that 
' the normal cell content is fully displayed and any extra
' height is used for the content that spans multiple columns.
Sub dataGridView1_RowHeightChanged(ByVal sender As Object, _
    ByVal e As DataGridViewRowEventArgs) _
    Handles dataGridView1.RowHeightChanged

    ' Calculate the new height of the normal cell content.
    Dim preferredNormalContentHeight As Int32 = _
        e.Row.GetPreferredHeight(e.Row.Index, _
        DataGridViewAutoSizeRowMode.AllCellsExceptHeader, True) - _
        e.Row.DefaultCellStyle.Padding.Bottom()

    ' Specify a new padding.
    Dim newPadding As Padding = e.Row.DefaultCellStyle.Padding
    newPadding.Bottom = e.Row.Height - preferredNormalContentHeight
    e.Row.DefaultCellStyle.Padding = newPadding

End Sub

Remarks

This property is used by the content-based automatic sizing feature of the DataGridView control to determine the ideal height of a row. The rowIndex value lets you specify the actual row index of a shared row. (Shared rows have Index property values of -1.)

A fixedWidth parameter value of false calculates the row height based on calculated column widths that will achieve ideal cell height-to-width ratios.

For cell contents to wrap onto multiple lines, the cell style in effect for the cell must have a WrapMode property value of True.

For more information about automatic sizing, see Sizing Options in the Windows Forms DataGridView Control.
