Hello Priya,

I prepared a sample demo based on the provided information in order to reproduce the described problem but unfortunately to no avail. I tested the demo both under IE7 and FF3 because you did not provide information about the used browser and the test was performed with the 2008.3 1125 version of RadControls as noted. I also did not know your exact configuration and I tested both with ShowIcon set to true and false for the RadColorPicker but in all the described cases there was not either a bad performance or layout problems.

This being said, I need to examine your exact code and for your convenience I attached my test demo to the thread - it is fully working, you should just modify it in order to replicate the issue. Once you succeed, please open a new support ticket and send me the modified demo along with detailed reproduction steps and information about the browser. It will be also helpful to provide more information about the way you tested the performance with the pickers and without them and what are the results of your tests.

Thanks alot for ur reply

The problem I mentioned will come only when I set the Scrolling property of grid to TRUE
ie

 <ClientSettings AllowColumnsReorder="True" ReorderColumnsOnClient="True"   >
                <Selecting AllowRowSelect="True"  />
                <Scrolling AllowScroll="true" UseStaticHeaders="True" SaveScrollPosition="false"></Scrolling>
            </ClientSettings>

when i removed the scrolling,everythg is wrkg fine
Thanks

Hi Priya,

I added the mentioned settings to the grid and I was able to reproduce a problem. However, I am not completely sure whether it is the same problem you report - on my side after I added the scrolling, one part of the color pickers was rendered in the grid's boundaries and the rest - outside it.

The described problem is due to the fact that the RadColorPicker is absolutely positioned when its ShowIcon property is set to true. To solve the problem I suggest you set the position attribute of the element which generates the scrollbars to relative, e.g:

  <style type="text/css">
    #RadGrid1_GridData
    {
       position: relative;
    }
        </style>

in the demo project I last sent you.


You can also take a look at this KB article which discusses a similar situation.

For your convenience I attached the modified demo. In case this is not what you mean, please provide detailed explanations and some screenshots.
