WinForms Data Grid - Create a custom View with the lowest row height

The example creates a custom grid control (MinRowHeightGridControl) with the lowest row height possible. The custom grid is read-only and we assume that only text columns can be used.

public class MinRowHeightGridViewInfo : GridViewInfo {
    public MinRowHeightGridViewInfo(MinRowHeightGridView view) : base(view) { }
    protected override int CalcMinRowHeight() {
        return Convert.ToInt32(PaintAppearance.Row.CalcTextSize(GInfo.Cache, "Gq", int.MaxValue).Height) + 1;
    }
}
