Hello,

I have problem to arrange the group headers for my grid and print them I like. The grid has 2 bands. Each band has 1 column with deparment name (band0) or employee name (band1) followed by 1 columns for every day within a date range up to 1 year.

After a first group for placeholder for the department column  I like to have 3 header groups: a month-group over all columns in the same month. a week-numer-group within the month-group and a dayOfWeek-group within the month-group (see attached picture).

But as you can see (attached pic) my groups have different width and are not aligned to the month-group.

My code snipped looks as follows:

CultureInfo cultureInfo = System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture;
UltraGridGroup groupMonth = null;
UltraGridGroup groupWeekNum = null;
UltraGridGroup groupWeekDay = null;

try
   {
         // enable label sizing
         band0.Layout.Override.AllowRowLayoutLabelSizing = RowLayoutSizing.Both;

         // department group
         UltraGridGroup groupOrg = band0.Groups.Add( "GroupOrg" );
         groupOrg.Header.Caption = " ";
         groupOrg.Hidden = false;
         groupOrg.RowLayoutGroupInfo.OriginX = 0;
         groupOrg.RowLayoutGroupInfo.OriginY = 0;
         groupOrg.RowLayoutGroupInfo.SpanX = 1;
         groupOrg.RowLayoutGroupInfo.SpanY = 6;

         // department column
         UltraGridColumn col = band0.Columns[FormPlanning.KeyCol_Organisation];
         col.RowLayoutColumnInfo.OriginX = 0;
         col.RowLayoutColumnInfo.OriginY = 0;
         col.RowLayoutColumnInfo.SpanX = 1;
         col.RowLayoutColumnInfo.SpanY = 6;
         col.RowLayoutColumnInfo.ParentGroup = groupOrg;

         // col counter for date columns
         int dayCount = 1;

         for ( DateTime date = this.servicePlan.OpenInfo.OpenRange.From; date <= this.servicePlan.OpenInfo.OpenRange.To; date = date.AddDays( 1 ) )
         {
               string colKey = date.ToShortDateString();

                    // month-group
                    string key = string.Format( "GroupMonth{0}", date.Month );
                    if ( !band0.Groups.Exists( key ) )
                    {
                        DateTime endOfMOnth = new DateTime( date.Year, date.Month, DateTime.DaysInMonth( date.Year, date.Month ) );

                        groupMonth = band0.Groups.Add( key );
                        groupMonth.Header.Caption = cultureInfo.DateTimeFormat.MonthNames[date.Month-1];
                        groupMonth.RowLayoutGroupInfo.OriginX = dayCount;
                        groupMonth.RowLayoutGroupInfo.OriginY = 0;
                        groupMonth.RowLayoutGroupInfo.SpanX = this.servicePlan.OpenInfo.OpenRange.Contains( endOfMOnth ) ?
                            DateTime.DaysInMonth( date.Year, date.Month ) :
                            this.servicePlan.OpenInfo.OpenRange.To.Day;
                        groupMonth.RowLayoutGroupInfo.SpanY = 6;
                    }

                    // week of year group
                    if ( date.DayOfWeek == cultureInfo.DateTimeFormat.FirstDayOfWeek )
                    {
                        int weekOfYear = cultureInfo.DateTimeFormat.Calendar.GetWeekOfYear( date, cultureInfo.DateTimeFormat.CalendarWeekRule,          cultureInfo.DateTimeFormat.FirstDayOfWeek );
                        int weekSpanX = this.servicePlan.OpenInfo.OpenRange.Contains( date.AddDays( 6 ) ) ?    7 : ( this.servicePlan.OpenInfo.OpenRange.To.Date - date.Date ).Days;
                        key = string.Format( "GroupWeekNum{0}", weekOfYear );

                        if ( !band0.Groups.Exists( key ) )
                        {
                            // -> week number
                            groupWeekNum = band0.Groups.Add( key );
                            groupWeekNum.Header.Caption = weekOfYear.ToString();
                            groupWeekNum.RowLayoutGroupInfo.OriginX = dayCount;
                            groupWeekNum.RowLayoutGroupInfo.OriginY = 2;
                            groupWeekNum.RowLayoutGroupInfo.SpanX = weekSpanX;
                            groupWeekNum.RowLayoutGroupInfo.SpanY = 2;
                            groupWeekNum.RowLayoutGroupInfo.ParentGroup = groupMonth;

                            // -> day of month for week number
                            groupWeekDay = band0.Groups.Add( string.Format( "GroupWeekDay{0}", weekOfYear ) );
                            groupWeekDay.Header.Caption = date.Day.ToString();
                            groupWeekDay.RowLayoutGroupInfo.OriginX = dayCount;
                            groupWeekDay.RowLayoutGroupInfo.OriginY = 4;
                            groupWeekDay.RowLayoutGroupInfo.SpanX = weekSpanX;
                            groupWeekDay.RowLayoutGroupInfo.SpanY = 2;
                            groupWeekDay.RowLayoutGroupInfo.ParentGroup = groupMonth;
                        }
                    }

                    // assign Band 0 column
                    col = band0.Columns[colKey];
                    col.Width = printOptions.FitToColWidth;
                    col.MinWidth = printOptions.FitToColWidth;
                    col.RowLayoutColumnInfo.ParentGroup = groupWeekNum;

                    // assign Band 1 column
                    col = band1.Columns[colKey];
                    col.Width = printOptions.FitToColWidth;
                    col.MinWidth = printOptions.FitToColWidth;
                    col.RowLayoutColumnInfo.ParentGroup = groupWeekNum;

                    dayCount++;
                }

                // disable label sizing
                band0.Layout.Override.AllowRowLayoutLabelSizing = RowLayoutSizing.None;
            }
            catch ( Exception x )
            {
                Logger.Error( x, false );
            }

Thank you for any help.
