Customize icons instead of expand and collpase images

Hi all

How to apply customize icons in instead of expand and collapse icons in hierarchical grid.

Hello Sudheer,

You can use the RadGrid's ColumnCreated event, check in the event arguments whether the column is GridExpandColumn and if so, set the ExpandImageUrl and CollapseImageUrl properties. These two properties work only if you set them programmatically.

    protected void RadGrid1_ColumnCreated(object sender, GridColumnCreatedEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Column is GridExpandColumn)
        {
            (e.Column as GridExpandColumn).ButtonType = GridExpandColumnType.ImageButton;
           
            (e.Column as GridExpandColumn).ExpandImageUrl = ".....";
            (e.Column as GridExpandColumn).CollapseImageUrl = ".......";
        }
    }

Hi sudheer,

I have tried your code using latest latest version and old version, with and without using the skin for RadGrid and found that it is working fine for me. I am getting the mousehover cursor image without any issue. Could you provide more information about the ASPX of RadGrid that you tried?

Thanks,
Princy.
