Automatic Trimming in RadGrid

[Saravanan]

hi,
   I am trying to display a Record in RadGrid, which contains some continuous spaces. But in RadGrid it is automatically trimed. For example the record has "s      a" but it displays "s a". Is there any property for this or we cannot restrict that.

Hello Paramahamsa,

Add the following CSS in the Item style property of the GridBoundColumn to prevent the trimming of spaces in the column.

ASPX:

<telerik:GridBoundColumn UniqueName="LastName" DataField="LastName" HeaderText="LastName">
        <ItemStyle CssClass="preserveSpace" />
</telerik:GridBoundColumn>

<style type="text/css">
       .preserveSpace
       {
           white-space: pre;
       }
</style>

Thanks,
Princy.

This looked very straightforward, however, when I applied it, it didnt retain the whitespace.

Is there somethign else I need to do.

My code behind line:

boundColumn.ItemStyle.CssClass =

 

"preserveSpace";

 

My .css file

 

 

.preserveSpace

 

{

 

 

white-space: pre;

 

}
