Prevent Skin from Applying to Formview

[Ron]

Hello,

I want the GridView and DetailsView to have a default skin applied via the FormDecorator, but I do not want it to apply to the FormView.  Currently it appears that you have to have it apply to all three controls or none of them.  I would rather not have to set the skin on each control individually to accomplish this as I want the GridView and DetailsView to be dynamic and change by simply changing the default skin setting on the FormDecorator.

Lastly, the FormDecorator control in on my master page.  Is there anyway to accomplish excluding FormView from having the skin specified in the FormDecorator applying to it?

Thanks,
Ron

Ron:

Take a look at the How to exclude specific controls from RadDecorator forum thread for detailed insights on your issue. At the bottom of the thread there is a possible solution of setting a CSSClass to the FormView control that will prevent the RadFormDecorator from applying itself to that object.

Hope this helps!

Hello,

Putting CssClass will prevent the element to be decorated. You could also use decoration zone ID property: Partial Page Decoration in order to have some parts of the page without decoration or with only specific elements decorated.

using the partial page decoration or zone IDs were not feasable in my situation, however, applying the CSSClass to the control was the way to go.  Thanks.
