Filter textbox

[Andy]

Hi all,

I am applying filter for Radgrid.
For example, I have an Email column, and the length of its data is so long.
But the length of filter textbox is still unchanged. It's not good.
Please see the pic for more detailed.
Please help me to fix it.

Thanks.

Andy.

Hello Andy,

Try setting the FilterControlWidth as shown below.
aspx:

<telerik:GridBoundColumn FilterControlWidth="170px" UniqueName="Email List" HeaderText="Email List"  DataField="Email List">
</telerik:GridBoundColumn>

Thanks,
Princy.

Hi Princy,

Thanks for your code.
But it is just a hard code.
I would like to make the filter textbox length changes  depends on the data length.

Thanks.

Andy.

Hello Andy,

Try the same approach in the following documentation.
Setting Filter Textbox Dimensions/Changing Default Filter Image.

Thanks,
Princy.

I was able to get this to work for auto generated columns by setting the FilterControlWidth in the ItemCreated event

Protected Sub RadGrid1_ColumnCreated(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridColumnCreatedEventArgs) Handles RadGrid1.ColumnCreated
    If TypeOf e.Column Is Telerik.Web.UI.GridBoundColumn Then
        Dim boundcol As New Telerik.Web.UI.GridBoundColumn
        boundcol = CType(e.Column, Telerik.Web.UI.GridBoundColumn)

        e.Column.FilterControlWidth = Unit.Percentage(85)
    End If
End Sub

Hello,

You can achieve this by using bellow code.

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn HeaderText="Email" DataField="Email" SortExpression="Email" UniqueName="Email"   AllowFiltering="true" FilterControlWidth="80%">
     <ItemTemplate>
          <asp:Label runat="server" ID="lblEmail" Text='<%# Eval("Email") %>'></asp:Label>
     </ItemTemplate>
     <ItemStyle Wrap="False" />
</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

Let me know for any concerns.
