Client-side disabling of the entire toolbar

[Joseph Alfano]

Do you know if it is possible on the client side to disable via javascript the entire rad toolbar object directly, instead of iterating thru all of the tool bar items and disabling them one-by-one via the RadToolBarItem client object?  I did not see any appropriate methods on the RadToolBar client object API to disable the entire toolbar, but wanted to make sure I was not overlooking something. 

Thanks for the help

Hello Joseph,

Give a try with followinig client side code in order to disable the ToolBar.

JavaScript;

<script type="text/javascript">
    function disableToolBar() {
        var ToolBar = $find('<%= RadToolBar1.ClientID %>');
        ToolBar.get_element().disabled = true;
    }
</script>

Hi Shinu

the code your provide is not working.

I just create a small function which loops all items from radtoolbar and disabled/enabled all of them, it works fine. I hope someone can give more efficient solution

Here is my solution which works fine.

    function setToolbarStatus(/*bool value indicate whether enable or disable toolbar*/ isDisabled) {
        var toolBar = $find('<%= rdtMenu.ClientID %>');

        var toolbarItems = toolBar.get_allItems();

        var i = 0;
        while (i < toolbarItems.length) {
            toolbarItems[i].set_enabled(isDisabled);
            i++;
        }
    }
