[Solved] cell.text in CellAction

[Christoffer Stoll]

Hi, 

I have a column that shows if an object is visible or not.
I want to show "Yes" or "No" in that column, but with the code below it only shows checkboxes.
It seems that cell.text is ignored.

Html.Telerik()
  .Grid(Model)
  .Name("MyGrid")
  .Columns(columns =>
  {
    columns.Bound(o => o.IsVisible).Title("Visible?");
  })
  .CellAction(cell=>
  {
    if (cell.Column.Member == "IsVisible")
    {
      cell.Text = cell.DataItem.IsVisible ? "Yes" : "No";
    }
  })
  .Render();

Is there another way to do this?

Hello Christoffer Stoll,

 Use the Template of the column to do that. There seems to be a bug which prevents the Text from working in RowAction.

Will I be able to sort by that column if i use template?

Hello Christoffer Stoll,

 Yes, you can sort a bound column for which a template is defined. Here is a sample implementation:

<% Html.Telerik()
  .Grid(Model)
  .Name("MyGrid")
  .Columns(columns =>
  {
    columns.Bound(o => o.IsVisible).Template(o =>
    {
    %>
        <%= o.IsVisible? "Yes" : "No" %>
    <%
    });
  })
  .Render();
  %>
