Body
<p>I solved a similar problem by creating a custom cell type, and shrinking the editing control as Bryan described. It's not terribly difficult, and it's the only way I'm aware of to keep the editing control from drawing on top of everything.</p> <p>Something like this ought to work for you:</p> <pre><code>public class PaintAccommodatingTextBoxCell : DataGridViewTextBoxCell { // Adjust the editing panel, so that custom painting isn't // drawn over when cells go into edit mode. public override Rectangle PositionEditingPanel(Rectangle cellBounds, Rectangle cellClip, DataGridViewCellStyle cellStyle, bool singleVerticalBorderAdded, bool singleHorizontalBorderAdded, bool isFirstDisplayedColumn, bool isFirstDisplayedRow) { // First, let base class do its adjustments Rectangle controlBounds = base.PositionEditingPanel(cellBounds, cellClip, cellStyle, singleVerticalBorderAdded, singleHorizontalBorderAdded, isFirstDisplayedColumn, isFirstDisplayedRow); // Shrink the bounds here... return controlBounds; } } public class PaintAccommodatingTextBoxColumn : DataGridViewTextBoxColumn { PaintAccommodatingTextBoxCell templateCell; public PaintAccommodatingTextBoxColumn() { templateCell = new PaintAccommodatingTextBoxCell(); } public override DataGridViewCell CellTemplate { get { return templateCell; } set { PaintAccommodatingTextBoxCell newTemplate = value as PaintAccommodatingTextBoxCell; if (newTemplate == null) throw new ArgumentException("Template must be a PaintAccommodatingTextBoxCell"); else templateCell = newTemplate; } } } </code></pre>

1. COWhile working on the same issue I found that the cellBounds parameter needed to be modified before calling base.PositionEditingPanel rather than simply modifying the return value. Otherwise the EditingControl would be resized, but not the EditingPanel which would obscure the custom cell painting.

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
