Is it possible to have Multi-line DataGridView cells without wrapping text?

Question

I know I can set WrapMode to true on the DefaultCellStyle of the RowTemplate, however this doesn\'t give me the behaviour I want. I am dis

Answer 1

i test this code and result is very good test this please :

Note : create a form and Datagrid on , set following datagrid Properties

1- AutoSizeRowsMode to AllCells.
2- WrapMode for Target Column to True

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace DGMultiLine
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            int max = 12; //min Column Width in Char
            //do this for all rows of column for max Line Size in values

            string str = "Hello\r\nI am mojtaba\r\ni like programming very very \r\nrun this code and  pay attention to result\r\n Datagrid Must show this Line Good are you see whole of this Thats Finished!";
            string[] ss = str.Split(new string[] { "\r\n" }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);

            //find max Line Size To Now
            for (int i = 0; i < ss.Length; i++)
                if (ss[i] != null && ss[i] != "")
                    if (ss[i].Length > max)
                        max = ss[i].Length;
            //Set target Column Width
            dataGridView1.Columns[0].Width = max*5;//for adequate value you must refer to screen resolution
            //filling datagrigView for all values
            dataGridView1.Rows[0].Cells[0].Value = str;
        }

    }
}

you can add a hidden Column by real fullText and a visible Column that show string value by above code but in string lines size that exceed from your Max Column Size clip string and add ... to end . ( if it isn't clear ask to write full code )
