RadFormDecorator and RadGrid

[Rudy]

Hi there,

When using a RadGrid in a form decorated with the RadFormDecorator, if the grid contains a column with centered radiobuttons, the alignment of the column changes to left aligned. In addition, the radiobuttons are cut off.

Any ideas?

FYI - I experience the same issue with a checkbox in a grid column with the HorizontalAlign property set to Center.

I have opened a new support ticket for this problem and attached a demo test project.

Hi. I have the same issue. A workaround is to place a non breakable space in the text of the radio/checkbox

The indicator (small black triangle) for the orderable column doesn't show up when using a decorator.

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn ShowSortIcon="true" UniqueName="colActif" HeaderText="Actif">
<ItemTemplate>

<asp:RadioButton ID="chkActif" runat="server" Checked='<%# Eval("ind_actif") %>' Text="&nbsp;" />

</ItemTemplate>

<ItemStyle Width="30px" HorizontalAlign="Center" />

</telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

That's do not solve the alignment problem, though. If the column is horizontally aligned to the center, when using the RadFormDecorator, the radio/check buttons will show left aligned.

In addition the button images for the command items in the RadGrid will dissapear.

Hello Rudy,

The issue you have reported is a frequent one since RadFormDecorator was released and we are still working on solving it. It is caused by the lack of label associated with each checkbox. Currently, the solution I can suggest is to use the DecoratedZoneId property of RadFormDecorator and thus exclude RadGrid's form controls to be decorated.

The other solution is to use JavaScript to loop through the checkboxes in the particular cells and use the adjacentHTML method to generate a label with &nbsp; and associate it with each checkbox.
