Removing Page Size control From RadGrid

[Tristan]

Hi Guys,

We'd been using RadGrid for awhile version Q3 2008. We've recently updated it to Q1 2009_1_527 .

We've noticed some changes and one of it is the "page size" control(dropdownlist) appears in the footer of the RadGrid if the pagerstyle mode is set to "NextPrevAndNumeric". Is there any way to remove this "page size" control as we don't actually need it as most of our RadGrid already has its own "page size" control.

I try to read the documentation but there don't seem to be an explanation how this could be done.

Hi Tristan,

Try adding following CSS in order to hide the pagesize dropdown in grid.

CSS:

<style type="text/css">
   div.RadGrid .rgPager .rgAdvPart
   {
    display:none;
   }
</style>

Hello Tristan,

You can also try out the following code to remove the pagesize dropdown:
c#:

    protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound (object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
      if (e.Item is GridPagerItem)
        {
            GridPagerItem pager = (GridPagerItem)e.Item;
            Label lbl = (Label)pager.FindControl("ChangePageSizeLabel");
            lbl.Visible = false;

            RadComboBox combo = (RadComboBox)pager.FindControl("PageSizeComboBox");
            combo.Visible = false;
        }
      }

Thanks
Princy.

Hi Shinu, Princy

The CSS solution works!
i haven't tested the code behind solution yet

Hi Princy,

The code version works, too. ;)

Hello Telerik Team,

Please update your documentation (or code) to agree with one another.  This is an annoying problem since the documentation claims NextPrevAndNumeric work differently than they actually do..(BTW, I am using the latest version 2010.1.530.35)

Hello Bob,

Could you please be more specific what discrepancy you are referring to? Is it something on this page?

See attached screenshot of CHM file documentation

It states that PrevNextAndNumeric does NOT show the page size controls

Thank you, we will edit the text.

The code solution works really well (easy) because we have grids with grids inline and trying to figure out how to get the style sheet method to apply to grids with inner grids just was not working...

[Shinu]

Hi,

I suppose you are using NestedViewTemplate. Here is the sample code that I tried which worked as expected.
aspx:

<style type="text/css">
   div.RadGrid .rgPager .rgAdvPart
   {
    display:none;
   }
</style>
<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="false" AllowPaging="true" PageSize="3" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource2" >
 <MasterTableView CommandItemDisplay="Top" HierarchyDefaultExpanded="true">
    <Columns>
     . . .
    </Columns>
 <NestedViewTemplate>
     <telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid2" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="false"  AllowPaging="true" PageSize="3" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource2" >
       <MasterTableView>
         <Columns>
             . . .
         </Columns>
       </MasterTableView>
     </telerik:RadGrid>
 </NestedViewTemplate>
 </MasterTableView>
</telerik:RadGrid>

Thanks,
Shinu.

While the stylesheet method works, it ends up applying the style to all the grids on a refresh.  Our inner grids are actually user controls nested in a temple of a parent grid.
The first time the grid loads on the page everything is perfect.  The parent grid offers the user the chance to change the PAGE SIZE of the parent grid (5, 15, 25, 100) and the child grid does not offer a PAGE SIZE COMBO change option.  Perfect, once the person changes the parent page size or moves to another page.. It disappears for all the grids on that page...

So in the end, using the code approach was much easier than trying to figure out the css for isolating the inner grid...

Hi Warren,

Indeed using the server-side logic is the preferable solution when hiding elements. The CSS classes if not used with a particular ID would be applied for all elements with that class on the page.

I must have read dozens of posts about this topic and I was wondering in the latest iteration of the controls if there is a way to programmatically turn off this drop down box of different page sizes. Seems like a much better way to address the needs of many users rather than add extraneous code. to disable this "feature."

On another thread I found a solution to this.

<PagerStyle PageSizeControlType="None" />

..The above tag turns off the page size dropdown "feature."
