Examples
The following code example demonstrates how to stretch and zoom images to fit cells. This example is part of a larger example available in How to: Work with Image Columns in the Windows Forms DataGridView Control.
void Stretch( Object^ sender, EventArgs^ e )
{
   System::Collections::IEnumerator^ myEnum = dataGridView1->Columns->GetEnumerator();
   while ( myEnum->MoveNext() )
   {
      DataGridViewImageColumn^ column = safe_cast<DataGridViewImageColumn^>(myEnum->Current);
      column->ImageLayout = DataGridViewImageCellLayout::Stretch;
      column->Description = L"Stretched";
   }
}
void ZoomToImage( Object^ sender, EventArgs^ e )
{
   System::Collections::IEnumerator^ myEnum1 = dataGridView1->Columns->GetEnumerator();
   while ( myEnum1->MoveNext() )
   {
      DataGridViewImageColumn^ column = safe_cast<DataGridViewImageColumn^>(myEnum1->Current);
      column->ImageLayout = DataGridViewImageCellLayout::Zoom;
      column->Description = L"Zoomed";
   }
}
void NormalImage( Object^ sender, EventArgs^ e )
{
   System::Collections::IEnumerator^ myEnum2 = dataGridView1->Columns->GetEnumerator();
   while ( myEnum2->MoveNext() )
   {
      DataGridViewImageColumn^ column = safe_cast<DataGridViewImageColumn^>(myEnum2->Current);
      column->ImageLayout = DataGridViewImageCellLayout::Normal;
      column->Description = L"Normal";
   }
}
private void Stretch(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    foreach (DataGridViewImageColumn column in
        dataGridView1.Columns)
    {
        column.ImageLayout = DataGridViewImageCellLayout.Stretch;
        column.Description = "Stretched";
    }
}
private void ZoomToImage(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    foreach (DataGridViewImageColumn column in
        dataGridView1.Columns)
    {
        column.ImageLayout = DataGridViewImageCellLayout.Zoom;
        column.Description = "Zoomed";
    }
}
private void NormalImage(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    foreach (DataGridViewImageColumn column in
        dataGridView1.Columns)
    {
        column.ImageLayout = DataGridViewImageCellLayout.Normal;
        column.Description = "Normal";
    }
}
Private Sub Stretch(ByVal sender As Object, _
    ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click
    For Each column As DataGridViewImageColumn _
        In dataGridView1.Columns
        column.ImageLayout = DataGridViewImageCellLayout.Stretch
        column.Description = "Stretched image layout"
    Next
End Sub
Private Sub ZoomToImage(ByVal sender As Object, _
    ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Button4.Click
    For Each column As DataGridViewImageColumn _
        In dataGridView1.Columns
        column.ImageLayout = DataGridViewImageCellLayout.Zoom
        column.Description = "Zoomed image layout"
    Next
End Sub
Private Sub NormalImage(ByVal sender As Object, _
    ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Button5.Click
    For Each column As DataGridViewImageColumn _
        In dataGridView1.Columns
        column.ImageLayout = DataGridViewImageCellLayout.Normal
        column.Description = "Normal image layout"
    Next
End Sub
Remarks
Getting or setting this property gets or sets the ImageLayout property of the object returned by the CellTemplate property. Setting this property also sets the ImageLayout property of every cell in the column and refreshes the column display. To override the specified value for individual cells, set the cell values after you set the column value.
