  Hello,
  
  when subscribed to the event:

  gcSpreadSheet.ColumnWidthChanged += OnGdmSpreadSheetColumnWidthChanged;

  a wrong value for the dragged column is returned.
  
  Steps:

  • create 2x2 sheet (columns A and B)
  • drag column A to the left as much as possible (behind the limits)
  • visually the width of column A seems to be 0 but when catching in the event above the value of:

  spreadSheet.ActiveSheet.Columns[e.ColumnList[0]].Width

  it is still the previous value.

  Hi,

  I think you meant for Resizing and not for dragging. Please correct if we are wrong.

  We have replicated this issue at our end while resizing a column to Zero width and it still taking the previous one.
  
  This issue seems like a bug. So, we have escalated it to the development team. Will get back to you once we have any update from them.[Intearnal tracking Id - SPNET-32983]

  Hi,

  As per the development team, The current behavior of Column.Width is by design. Because the internal implementation of set column width doesn’t change the column width to 0 when the column parameter is 0.
  
  We recommend using the Column.ActualWidth property to get the correct column width.
  
  Try below code to achieve your requirement:

  spread.ActiveSheet.Columns[e.ColumnList[0]].ActualWidth

  Please refer the attached sample for the same: WpfSpreadDemo.zip
