[Solved] Control the Grouping feature

[Narendra]

Hi Telerik,

I needed help on customizing  the grouping feature. Basically when I add a column Grouping it shows up as a separate row in the table which is of the format ColumnName : ColumnValue

I was wondering if there is a way to not have this default message and do something like rowspan = 5 if the group has 5 sub columns in it 

  .Groupable(settings => settings.Groups(groups => groups.Add(o => o.ElementName)))

Also I wanted to get rid of the Header which says unGroup 

Any help will be appreciated

Hello Narendra,

The Grid group headers already have a colspan attribute. If you want to customize the row content, you can use a (Client)GroupHeaderTemplate:

In order to hide the UnGroup button, you can use CSS:

.t-grouping-header  .t-group-delete
{
       display: none;
}


Kind regards,
