[Solved] Custom expand/collapse tooltips for every row

[Jeffrey Sylvan]

One of my users wants custom tooltips for every expandable item in the grid. Instead of "Expand" or "Collapse" the user wants "expand a" or "collapse b."

While I'm aware that that there is a way to change this globally for a grid by setting collapsetooltip and expandtooltip in the hiarchysettings, I don't know how to do it for individual items. Is this possible? How would one go about doing this if so?

Hello Jeffrey,

A possible solution is to access the ExpandColumn button and set its ToolTip according to your requirement. Refer to the code below to  understand better:
c#:

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        foreach(GridDataItem dataItem in RadGrid1.Items)
        {
            Button btn = (Button)dataItem["ExpandColumn"].Controls[0];
            if (!dataItem.Expanded)
            {
                btn.ToolTip = "Expand " + dataItem["Name"].Text + "";
            }
            else if (dataItem.Expanded)
            {
                btn.ToolTip = "Collapse " + dataItem["Name"].Text + "";
            }
        }
    }

Thanks
