Changing editcolumn icon image

[Dick]

I need to be able to change the default pencil icon of the RadGrid to a custom Icon when a user is defined to the system as read only. 

Using the following piece of code in the  " protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) " function, I can hide the column with the visible property set to false. 
      
     RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetColumn("EditImageColumn").Visible = false;

However what I need to do is change the pencil image to eyeglasses (indicating read-only mode).

The EditImageUrl property is not available using the above code and replacing the ".Visible" with ".EditImageUrl". It results in a compile error.

    RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetColumn("EditImageColumn"). EditImageUrl = "~/MyImage" 

How can I accomplish this requirement.

Thanks

Hi Dick,

Try accessing the GridEditCommandColumn in the PreRender event and set the image url for the edit column as shown below.

CS:

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        foreach (GridColumn col in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.RenderColumns)
        {
            if (col.ColumnType =="GridEditCommandColumn")
            {
                GridEditCommandColumn editcol = (GridEditCommandColumn)col;
                editcol.EditImageUrl = "Images/Image1.gif";
            }
        }
        RadGrid1.Rebind();

    }

Thanks
Shinu.
