[Solved] Add button to RadGrid Header

[Jim]

I am working with a RadGrid, I've followed several examples but nothing seems to work for what I want.

In my picture I show my example of what I am wanting.  I want a button to appear in the header portion of the RadGrid next to Page Size.

Thanks

I could not get a button to work in the RadGrid, instead I added an asp Button, in a CommandItemTemplate, in the MasterTableView.

I had to add the option CommandItemDisplay="Top" in the MasterTableView.

I used a combination of the answers here

Hi Jim,

One way to achieve this scenario would be to create a Pager Template and handle the paging yourself using Commands: 

• How to Fire Command Events server-side
• fireCommand client-side

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" AllowPaging="True">
    <MasterTableView>
        <PagerTemplate>
            <%--Your controls here including the ones that will handle paging--%>
        </PagerTemplate>
    </MasterTableView>
</telerik:RadGrid>

 

Another option you can try is to access the PagerItem in the server side and add your custom button to it.

I advise that you review the following articles to get a better understanding on how to access the item:

• RadGrid Structure Overview
• Data Items
• Functional Items
• Accessing Cells and Rows

Kind regards,
