Best Practice To Manage Telerik RadGrid Grid And Column Widths?

May 25, 2010

I wanted to ask what is the best practice to manage width of the radGrid.

For my application most users are running 1280 x 1024 so I would be happy to set my overall grid width to 1100. However, depending on the form in use, I sometimes have horizantal scroll bars. To solve this, I have been playing with the width of the grid, and also I have played with setting the itemstyle-width for one or two columns. Sometimes I accidentally get it right, and sometimes it is not quite right.

What is the best way to manage this? Do I set the grid, and then all columns, or just the grid, or just the columns? I guess there is a best practice, so just wondering how you handle it,

C# - Extra Column Appearing When Paging In Telerik RadGrid?

Oct 5, 2010

I'm getting a blank column when switching to another page using the default pager in the telerik radgrid. As data for each row, it shows the type of data i am using for the rows (SearchRecord)

Anyone have any clues as to why this may be happening? It doesn't show up on initial population of the grid, but only when I do paging. My columns are built dynamically but i confirmed that when my columns are built, they are the correct number.

Using Telerik RadGrid - How To Set The Date Format For Autogenerated Column In Edit Mode

May 23, 2010

Using VS2008, and Telerik radGrid version 2010.1.519.35

I have a about 50 DNN modules using telerik radgrid and I need to display my dates in dd/mm/yy format. It is possible to do this easily in view mode, but when I switch to edit mode, it is more of a struggle. I can write a snippit of code to reformat the displayed date values to dd/mm/yy, but for inserts the user must enter mm/dd/yy.

IOW, I need to change the culture of the form to en-GB culture.

In my DotnetNuke App, I have made a change to the web.config, but it still assumes en-US format.

I am not sure whether I need to set this at web.config level, page level or at the column within the control.

C# - Telerik Grid With A JavaScript Confirm Box To Update A Column?

Mar 8, 2011

I have a Telerik grid. For each row there is a details table. The row is of type NominationTypeClass and the rows in the details table is of type Nomination. So what this means for each nomination type there is a list of nominations. The grid's code:

<telerik:RadGrid
AllowPaging="true"
AllowSorting="true"
AutoGenerateColumns="false"
GridLines="None"
ID="rgMyNominations".......

I have an action column that has a link that says Withdrawn. When clicked I have a JavaScript confirm box with a Yes or No option. If yes, then the nomination status is updated to withdrawn. Then I want the grid to be refreshed to show the updated status. I used the grid's update command to to show the show the JavaScript's command box. It updates, but is it the correct way to do it?

protected void rgMyNominations_UpdateCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
{
try
{
StatusManager.InsertStatus( /* required parameters */ );
// Refresh grid
rgMyNominations.DataSource = GetNominationTypes();
rgMyNominations.DataBind();.....

...it says that NominationDate is not a property of NominationTypeClass. This is wrong, I don't know why it is taking the type for the row to be the type of the details table? NominationDate is a property of Nomination. It seems like it is overriding the datasources.

Is anyone able to offer any decent alternatives to the telerik ASP.Net controls.

I'm in the market for a decent grid control with all singing all dancing extensions... bt I'm finding the telerik grid really hard work to deal with.

Finding Values In A Telerik Radgrid?

Nov 26, 2010

I've tried to find the answer, but am not having any luck and am wasting to much time trying to figure it out. Using RadGrid from Telerik, latest version of their Ajax Controls, I've added a Select to each row, and can't figure out how to get the value of the selected row. Prefer to get the value of the ID column (from ID field in my database) or other specific columns. C# or VB example will work, VB preferred.

Set Telerik RadGrid To Edit Mode By Default?

Dec 7, 2010

I have a checkbox column in a RadGrid that I want the user to be able to check/uncheck it and set the attached property. When the grid renders however, the checkboxes are disabled, because the grid is not in "edit mode". All the examples I'm finding want me to go through a lengthy process of selecting the record, putting it into edit mode, changing the value, saving the value.... yada yada yada...I just want the whole grid to be in edit mode (or the column, or whatever works) from the get-go, so the end user can make a one-click change to the data value. I know there must be a way to do this, I just can't seem to find it.

Telerik RadGrid Doesn't Display On First Page_Load But Does On Postback

Mar 17, 2010

I have a page with a drop-down. Based on the selection in the drop-down, data gets loaded and populates a RadGrid. I am using a custom user control for the EditTemplate, so I can't use radGrid.DataBind(). Instead, I have to use radGrid.MasterTableView.Rebind() in association with a NeedDataSource event handler.

My problem is that when I load the page initially, I populate the drop-down and automatically select a value (first item in the list) which triggers the databinding on the RadGrid. I can step through the code in debug mode and see that the grid is being populated with data, but when the page displays, it doesn't get rendered. When I then manually choose an item from the drop-down, which triggers the same grid databinding code, it displays properly the second time.

How do I get it to display the grid the first time the page loads?

Telerik Radgrid GridDataItem.DataItem Is Empty When Updating?

May 10, 2010

When handling the OnUpdateCommand event on a RadGrid the DataItem is null.

I thought that this would also represent the data item being represented by the row.

The Radgrid is populated from an IList and in the handler the code looks like this...

protected void rgAllocatedClients_UpdateCommand(object sender, GridCommandEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Item is GridDataItem)
{
var gridDataItem = e.Item as GridDataItem;
var client= gridDataItem .DataItem as Client;

This works find when handling the ItemDataBound event but not when handling the UpdateCommand event. I really need this as in my Client class is the Id of the row I want to handle the update for.

How To Change The Data In Telerik's RadGrid Based On Calendar's Selected Dates

Feb 24, 2010

I was creating another usercontrol with Telerik's RadGrid and Calendar.

[code].....

The problems are, (1) when I click the submit button. the data in the RadGrid is not changed. (2) how can we check if there is nothing selected in the Calendar controls, because there is a date (01/01/0001) set even if we do not select anything from that calendar, thus Calendar1.SelectedDate != null is not enough.

Forms Data Controls :: Unable To Format Column Widths

Jun 3, 2010

I'm creating a ListView and have been unable to format column widths. After much research I have found that the width property of the <asp:Label doesn't work. I'm using

<asp:Label
ID="lblVCArea"
runat="server"
width="10"
BackColor="Aqua"
Text='<%# Eval("VCArea") %>'
/>

I test the FormView by changing the width property and it doesn't affect the width of the column. The <th control in the layout template has a width="60" that appears to be working. If I remove the <asp:label from the <td in the Item and AlternateItem templates, the width is set to 60. When I paste the <asp:label back into the <td, the width of the column increases to about 200px even though the width is set to 10. I set the backcolor to Aqua to see the label and it is about 200 px widt.
