Rad Grid Column Display Issue and Set Display Properties

[gc_0620]

Folks.

1) Certain Rad Grid Columns back ground color changes:
I have a radgrid with 5 columns. I am using Skin="Default". But some columns Filter TextBox Background/Foregound Color are Yellow/Black.   But some columns Filter TextBox Background/Foregound Color are White/Black.  It is also happening to some columns TextBoxes in MasterTable when it is in Insert/Edit Mode. I would like to keep all columns Background/Foregound Color as White/Black.

  

 

2) Changing Screen resolution:

How to change the Screen resolution to 1024x768 only when I am within a Website using Telerik controls? Can this changes be done in a Master page so that changes reflects to all Content Pages?  We are building a local Web Intranet project for our employees (Internal Users).   I do not want to change users Screen resolution permanently Via Display Properties setting from Windows.

3)  Maximize the Page:
How to Maximize the Page (not Full Screen) after it opens? Can this be done also via Master Page?

Anyhelp or suggestions will be sincerely appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi,

1) I tried with the Default Skin, the Filter textbox and edit mode Textboxes are showing White backcolor. I am not sure what is happening on your end. If it is not working for some columns I would suggest you to access the edit mode textbox and filter textbox in code behind and set desired color.

CS:

 protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridFilteringItem)
        {
            GridFilteringItem filter = (GridFilteringItem)e.Item;
            TextBox txtbx = (TextBox)filter["columnUniqueName"].Controls[0];
            txtbx.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.White;

        }
        if((e.Item is GridEditFormItem)&&(e.Item.IsInEditMode))
        {
            GridEditFormItem editItem = (GridEditFormItem)e.Item;
            TextBox txtbx = (TextBox)editItem["columnUniqueName"].Controls[0];
            txtbx.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.White;

        }

    }

Hi Princy,

Thanks for answering. Unfortunately the last 2 GridboundColumns (Address1 and City), Filter TextBox Background/Foregound Color are still Yellow/Black. The 1st 4 columns Filter TextBox Background/Foregound Color are  White/Black (thats what they supposed to be) .  Also I was able to change the Foreground Color of Address1 Column after item databound; but changing the background from Yellow to White is the problem.  Very Strange. I do not know what other choice I have. Anyway, appreciate your help.

_______
protected void RadGrid2_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)

 

{

 

if (e.Item is GridFilteringItem)

 

{

 

GridFilteringItem filteringItem = e.Item as GridFilteringItem;

 

 

TextBox box = filteringItem["Address1"].Controls[0] as TextBox;

 

box.ForeColor = System.Drawing.

Color.OrangeRed; // This Works

 

 

 

 

 

box.BackColor = System.Drawing.

Color.White; // This still Does not work

 

 

 

 

 

}

}

Princy,

In my Project I am using the prototype from:

http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/grid/examples/dataediting/templateformupdate/defaultcs.aspx

When I opened this Telerik demo in Edit Mode, Employee Nancy Davolio's following Text Boxes Background/Foregound Color are also  Yellow/Black.

1. Home Phone 
2. Birth Date 
3. First name 
4. Last Name

 

The other columns Text Boxes Backgorund/Foregoround color are White/Black. What could be causing this? Any Idea? I am using VS 2008 with RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX Q2 2009 NET35.

Thanks

With the help of http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/grid-getting-familiar-with-client-side-api.html. I got the method, '.get_visible()'. The problem is resolved.

Thanks,
