title: How to set Kendo UI grid column widths programmatically
body: <p>I would like to set Kendo UI grid column widths programmatically. I am using the following code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>function setColumnWidths(grid, options) {
      for (var i = 0; i &lt; options.columns.length; i++) {
          grid.columns[i].width = options.columns[i].width;
      }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When debugging in chrome after the statements executed, grid.columns[i].width seems to be appropriately set to the new value, however nothing changes in the GUI, the column widths remain the same.
  What am I missing?</p>
