Removing table headers forces a scrollbar

Consider the table given by

Code

tTable

Here is the definition :

Code (gambas)

  1.   Dim tTable As New TableView(mainArea) As "Dyntable_root"
  2.   Dim i, j As Integer
  4.  
  5.   Dim code As String = ""
  6.  
  7.   tTable.Columns.Count = 3
  8.   tTable.Columns[0].Title = "SAMPLE"
  9.   tTable.Columns[0].Width = tTable.Font.TextWidth(tTable.Columns[0].Title) + 10
  10.   tTable.Columns[1].Text = "ID"
  11.   tTable.Columns[1].Width = tTable.Font.TextWidth(tTable.Columns[1].Title) + 100
  12.   tTable.Columns[2].Text = "DATA"
  13.   tTable.Columns[2].Width = tTable.Font.TextWidth(tTable.Columns[2].Title) + 200
  14.   tTable.Font = parentTable.Font
  15.  
  16.   tTable.Width = 200 'parentTable.Current.Width + 10
  17.   tTable.Height = 80 'parentTable.Current.Height - tTable.Top - 5 - 10
  18.  
  19.   tTable.Resizable = True
  20.  

Now, later on we do this :

Code (gambas)

  1. For cnt = 0 To tTable.Rows.Count - 1
  2.     sumVals = sumVals + tTable.Rows[cnt].Height
  3.   Next
  4.  
  5.  
  6.   tTable.Height = sumVals + 2 + tTable.Columns.Height

This sets the eight to 49. I checked.

Even below that we set :

Code (gambas)

  1. tTable.Header = GridView.None
  2.  
 
Even now, the height is 49, I checked. There is only one row, with row Height = 21. We turn off the headers with

Code (gambas)

  1. tTable.Header = GridView.None

Now finally we do :

Code (gambas)

  1.  Dim sumVals As Integer = 0
  2.   Dim cnt As Integer = 0
  3.  
  4.  
  5.   For cnt = 0 To tTable.Rows.Count - 1
  6.     Print "adding: ", sumVals, "for ", cnt
  7.     sumVals = sumVals + tTable.Rows[cnt].Height
  8.     Print cnt, sumVals
  9.   Next
  10.  
  11.   Print "headres gone? ", tTable.Header   ' prints 0
  12.   tTable.Height = sumVals + 2    'alternatively : tTable.Height  - tTable.Columns.Height
  13.   'tTable.Resize(tTable.Width, sumVals+2)  '<--- alternatively I am using this
  14.  

The table had one row, and it had a height of 21. So this should make the table height = 21 + 2.

Indeed I can print that the table height is now 23, but it is adding a few scrollbars! It seems, within the borders, the scrollbar still allows for a total height of 49. So something is making the 49 a persistent height. Even if the outer borders, and printed message agree, that I have tables of height 23 - it seems that inside the table, despite a single row, and turning off the headers via the none option, something of height 49 is still there.

What is wrong? Thank you.

The scroll bars can be turned off.

Code (gambas)

  1. GridView1.ScrollBar = GridView.None

The gridview is 'Padded', by default, with 2. You could turn that off as well.

Code (gambas)

  1. GridView1.Padding = 0

But why do you need to be so accurate?

 Because I have made an AI in python, to analyze mining data. I want to display the output of the data, as well as training data used for this in a tabular form, wherein a table cell can contain other tables. The random inclusion of table scrollbars are causing me to lose the view.

Thank you anyway
