I'm almost complete the migration of the first part of my app from asp.net suite to prometheus. However, i have developed custom skins for some controls and my prometheus grid with custom skin is not showing the up/down arrows when a column heading is clicked on to sort the data. Also, the filter image and filter pop-up menu are not styled at all.

With the asp.net suit, i did not have these problems. My custom skin worked ok. But this is failing in prometheus and it is causing me a real headache as i cannot proceed until this is fixed.

Help please!
rob

This post (http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/thread/b311D-bbeakm.aspx) helped me solve most of my problems. I have the images now showing for the filter and sort states. however, the background and hover over of the filter menu items isnt showing correctly and it seems to me that maybe some CSS is required for that.

please do let me know.
cheers

Hello rdochert,

I suggest you double-check that you added SelectedMenu.gif/NotSelectedMenu.gif images in the folder defined through ImagesPath property of RadGrid Prometheus. Below is the complete information from the relevant RadControls Prometheus help topic:

http://www.telerik.com/help/radcontrols/prometheus/?HowSkinsWork.html (paragraph Custom skins)

If the issue persists, I suggest you submit a working subset of your project, illustrating the abnormality, attaching it to a formal support ticket. We will examine it carefully and will get back to you with our findings.

thanks but those images were correctly in place. i got some help in another post () which included an example. from that, i could see that a whole group of gridfilter CSS was missing from my custom skin CSS. i have included the missing CSS below.

under controls for asp.net, i did not have this CSS and the custom skin worked without any difficultly so perhaps this is something you could consider for your notes on making the transition to prometheus.

sincerely,
rob

Hello Rob,

You are right, we should add instructions about including Filtering menu CSS styles in a custom skin migrated from the Classic to the Prometheus version of RadGrid. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. A total of 500 Telerik points have been added to your account.

Sincerely yours,

I also encounter the same problem and search to find this post, but there is no ImagePath property in RadGrid.

I am using the latest Prometheus 2007 Q3 release

Hello Chuanbo,

Can you please verify that you are using the latest release Q3 2007 SP1 (2007_13_14) of RadControls Prometheus? This property for RadGrid Prometheus has been introduces in this release. Also review my previous post further down in this forum post.
