[Solved] Adding custom control to GridView cell

[Vien Nguyen]

I need to create a grid view column to display different statuses (red, green, yellow, orange) using a custom LED light control. Any suggestions on how I can do this?

Hi Vien,

 
There are a couple of approaches you may use. You may define CellTemplate for a particular column where you can define this control in the following manner:

<telerik:GridViewColumn Header="LED" .... >
        <telerik:GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
                   <local:CustomLEDControl ..../>
        </telerik:GridViewColumn.CellTemplate>
</telerik:GridViewColumn>

Also you may create your own custom column as it is described in the following online help article.

If you need any additional information please let me know.
