Hi Tony

Sorry to bring this up again but I have what I think is the same problem, I have tried all the combinations in the docs as you suggest but the problem does appear to be a genuine bug.

When a fixed width grid is populated with a large dataset the grid does not allways line up with the headings and the headings will also expand onto multiple lines.

I hope my description of the problem is ok but the effect is quite dificult to describe, let me know if you require more detail

Hi Tony

Thanks for the very fast reply.

The grid in question is on a corporate website and I would need to give you a login and password, is there any way I could do this not on a public forum

Also I have been runing some tests to isolate the cause of the problem

It would appear that it is impossible to have a grid with width less than the total width of the column headings as the headings will not overlap, plus if the column width is less than the text width of the heading the columns and headings will go out of line (this effect can be demonstrated on your resizing demo http://www.trirand.com/jqgrid/jqgrid.html using firefox 3 if you resize the client column to minimum and watch the columns go out line, the effect is less obviouse on other browsers with a small data set like this but all browsers have problems with large datasets.

p.s This problem aside congatulations on a brilliant component
