[Solved] Sum Group Headers

[phil doc]

Hi,

I'm hoping someone can help me out with this as I still dont have an answer -

if I had the following grid of data

Project       Time    Value    Items
Red            2          3           5 
Red            2          3           5
Orange      4          10         15
Orange      4          10         15

I would want to see this when the Project field is grouped and the Time and Items fields are summed (Value is not calculated)

Project         Time   Value   Items
+Red             4            10
+Orange       8            30

Instead of

Project       Time    Value    Items
+Red,Time:4,Items:10
+Orange,Time:8,Items:30

You can see the layout I want is alot clearer than what the grid is giving me at the moment.

Hi phil doc,

Generally, the group headers of the grid will contain pure text as shown on this demo of the product:

http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/grid/examples/groupby/expressions/defaultcs.aspx

If you would like to have your custom layout for the group headers, consider intercepting the ItemDataBound event of the control and inject an html table or other html element (as part of the DataCell.Text value of the relevant GridGroupHeaderItem) which will hold the text data. See this topic from the documentation for further details.
