[Solved] CommandItemTemplate

[OmahaDue]

How can you create two separate CommandItemTemplate on the grid, so that one can be on the top while the other at the bottom and they are function differently? For example, one use to clear all filters and the other one use to export to excel etc.

Thanks for the help.

Hello,

RadGrid doesn't support this functionality out-of-the-box, but you could try to implement it on your own.

Sample code:

class MyTemplate : ITemplate
{
    public void InstantiateIn(Control container)
    {
        LiteralControl litCtrl = new LiteralControl();
        litCtrl.ID = container.ClientID + "litCtl";
        if (isTop(container))
            litCtrl.Text = "TOP";
        else
            litCtrl.Text = "BOTTOM";
        container.Controls.Add(litCtrl);
    }

    protected bool isTop(Control container)
    {
        GridCommandItem item = container.NamingContainer as GridCommandItem;
        return item.OwnerTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.CommandItem)[0] == item;
    }

    public MyTemplate()
    { }
}

Please mind that this approach is not guaranteed to work in all scenarios.
