Ok I figured this one out on my own. I added a style for the cellvaluepresenter and it works like a charm

<Style TargetType="{x:Type igDP:CellValuePresenter}" x:Key="TopAlignField">
                            <Setter Property="Template">
                                <Setter.Value>
                                    <ControlTemplate TargetType="{x:Type igDP:CellValuePresenter}">
                                        <igEditors:XamTextEditor Margin="{TemplateBinding Padding}"
                        Width="{TemplateBinding Width}"
                        Height="{TemplateBinding Height}"
                        VerticalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled"
                        Text="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource TemplatedParent}, Path=Content}"                      
                        Background="Transparent"
                        BorderThickness="0"
                        BorderBrush="Transparent"
                        HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" 
                        IsEnabled="False"
                        VerticalAlignment="Top"/>
                                    </ControlTemplate>
                                </Setter.Value>
                            </Setter>
                        </Style>

set the fields cellvaluepresenter style to it and it works

 <igDP:Field Name="LogID" Column="0" Label="Log ID">
       <igDP:Field.Settings>
      <igDP:FieldSettings CellValuePresenterStyle="{StaticResource TopAlignField}"  AllowEdit="False" 
      CellWidth="60" LabelMaxWidth="60" CellMaxWidth="60" />                                                                                                                                 
       </igDP:Field.Settings>
                                </igDP:Field>

Is there any way to set the vertical alingment for the text@

I have a grid with several cells that wrap and the "unwrapped" cells have the text vertically aligned in the center of the cell by default

I need them to be "top" aligned.

anyway to to this?

Hi Philipp,

You should be able to do what you need by supplying a style for LabelPresenter. However, there is easier way. There is a property exposed off FieldSettings called CellContentAlignment. This property was exposed mainly for use in situations where the labels are with the cells, i.e. not in a separate header. It controls the placement of the cell relative to the label. However, even in the default case where there is a separate header it should affect the horizontal alignment of the label. Try setting it to something like 'LabelAboveCellAlignRight'.

I hope this helps.

 Hi Joe

What about horizontal alignment in the column headers? I've opened a support request a long time ago, but support couldn't help me as it appeared this got somewhat lost (the possible overrides screwed up themes). Is this supported with 7.2?

Cheers,

Philipp
