Change "Add new record" text

[Ramjet]

OK I admit not a big deal here but the users are asking if I could change the text on a RadGrid "Add neew record" to Add New Lender" or whatever. I am not seeing right off where to do so but I also frequently get lost in the sun-sub levels of the RadGrid.


TIA

I got it! I can use a RadToolBar and give myself a few more options as well!!!

I give myself 100 points.

Hello John,

You can change the desired text this way:

<MasterTableView ...
    <CommandItemSettings AddNewRecordText="Add New Lender" />

Localizing the Command item

Kind regards,

That's great to know as well but the Toolbar allows me to incorporate additional buttons opening up some great possabilities.

Thank You for the help

But how can I get functionality as "Add New Record" with new name? New name doesn't open that input window ?

hi Smiely,

Changing the localization for the whole project would change every grid, correct?  Is there a simple way to set it for each grid?

For example, I have a users grid, a brokers grid, etc.  So I would like it to say "Add new User" or "Add new Broker", etc.  Does anyone have a code sample?

I followed the "localizing the command item" link, but that seems to refer to the "RadGrid".  I'm not sure how to refer to the "GridTableView.CommandItemSettings object".  Perhaps I don't understand what the difference is between the "RadGrid" and Telerik's "Grid extension for ASP.NET MVC that uses AJAX for editing".

Thanks in advance!
Daniel

UPDATE: First off, I feel like I am in the wrong discussion (AJAX versus MVC), so I apologize.  However, I will answer my own question.  I don't feel like this is the most elegant solution, but it seems to work.  This will give me a "+ Broker" button instead of a "Add new record" button.  In my Html.Telerik().Grid<> declaration I added this:

.ToolBar(toolBar => toolBar.Template(
@<text>
  <a class="t-button t-button-icontext t-grid-add" href="/Journal/Brokers?mode=insert"><span class="t-add t-icon" style="margin-left:0"></span>Broker</a>
</text>) )

"Add New Record" button text can be changed like this:
  .ToolBar(toolbar => toolbar.Create().Text("Add Role"))
