## Definition

```csharp
public interface GridColumn
```

## Examples

C#:

```csharp
var grid = new Grid(1, 2) { ShowGridLines = true };
GridColumn labelColumn = grid.Columns[0];
labelColumn.SetWidthInPixels(80);
grid.Columns[1].SetWidthInStars(1);
grid.AddChild(new TextBlock { Text = "Symbol" }, 0, 0);
grid.AddChild(new TextBlock { Text = SymbolName }, 0, 1);
Chart.AddControl(grid);
```

Python:

```python
grid = Grid(1, 2)
grid.ShowGridLines = True
labelColumn = grid.Columns[0]
labelColumn.SetWidthInPixels(80)
grid.Columns[1].SetWidthInStars(1)
label = TextBlock()
label.Text = "Symbol"
grid.AddChild(label, 0, 0)
api.Chart.AddControl(grid)
```
