Auto resizing column widths for BestFit

A Telerik RadGridView can look fantastic once the columns size themselves intelligently, but getting there isn’t always obvious. This column introduces the small but essential bits of .NET code that make a grid feel polished—columns that expand to fit their content, adjust after data binding, and behave consistently no matter how the form loads. It’s a simple enhancement that instantly makes your UI feel more professional, and the code behind it is cleaner than you might expect.
