DetailTable CommandItem style being ignored

[matt]

my RadGrid has this child DetailTable:

<DetailTables>
    <Telerik:GridTableView
        Width="100%"
        Name="offenderCharges"
        DataKeyNames="OffenderChargeID"
        AutoGenerateColumns="false"
        EditMode="EditForms"
        Caption="&nbsp;"
        CommandItemDisplay="Top"
        CommandItemStyle-Font-Bold="true"
        NoDetailRecordsText="No Charges"
        CssClass="setMargin">

        <ParentTableRelation>
            <Telerik:GridRelationFields MasterKeyField="OffenderID" DetailKeyField="OffenderID"/>
        </ParentTableRelation>

        <CommandItemSettings AddNewRecordText="Add new Charge" RefreshText="" RefreshImageUrl="~/1.gif" />

        <Columns>
            <Telerik:GridEditCommandColumn ButtonType="LinkButton" UniqueName="editColumn" ItemStyle-ForeColor="#333333" ItemStyle-Font-Bold="True" />
            <Telerik:GridButtonColumn CommandName="Delete" ButtonType="LinkButton" Text="Delete" UniqueName="deleteColumn" ConfirmText="Delete charge?" ConfirmTitle="Delete" ItemStyle-ForeColor="#333333" ItemStyle-Font-Bold="True" />
            <Telerik:GridBoundColumn HeaderText="OffenderChargeID" UniqueName="OffenderChargeID" DataField="OffenderChargeID" Visible="False" ReadOnly="true"/>
            <Telerik:GridBoundColumn HeaderText="OffenderID" UniqueName="OffenderID" DataField="OffenderID" ReadOnly="true" Visible="false"/>
            <Telerik:GridDropDownColumn HeaderText="Charge" UniqueName="Charge" DataField="ChargeID" DropDownControlType="RadComboBox"/>
            <Telerik:GridDropDownColumn HeaderText="Victim #" UniqueName="VictimNumber" DataField="VictimNumber" DropDownControlType="RadComboBox"/>
            <Telerik:GridDropDownColumn HeaderText="Relationship" UniqueName="Relationsip" DataField="OffenderVictimRelationshipTypeID" DropDownControlType="RadComboBox"/>
        </Columns>
    </Telerik:GridTableView>
</DetailTables>

...problem is, the attribute CommandItemStyle-Font-Bold="true" doesnt work. none of the CommandItemStyles seem to work (font bold, italic, background color, etc).

they work in my MasterTableView, but not in the DetailView.

im using the office2007 skin.

any idea whats up?


thanks,

Hi Matt,

One suggestion would be to set the CommandItemStyle in the main grid tag. Try it out as shown below and see if it is working.

ASPX:

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server"  DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1"
  Skin="Office2007"     CommandItemStyle-Font-Bold="true" CommandItemStyle-Font-Italic="true"   >
   <MasterTableView DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1"  CommandItemDisplay="Top"    >

Thanks
Shinu.

shinu,

if i am trying to set this to a child DetailTable, why would i set it in the main grid?

also, this doesnt address why it isnt working in the DetailTable. bug, telerik??

Hi matt,

It seems this is indeed a bug that prevents the property to work as expected when set from the markup. You can work around it by using the ItemCreated event handler of the Grid like this:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCreated(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if ((e.Item is GridCommandItem))
        {
            GridCommandItem commandItem = e.Item as GridCommandItem;
            if (((Telerik.Web.UI.GridItem)(commandItem)).OwnerTableView.Name == "TableName")
            {
                commandItem.Font.Bold = true;
            }
        }
    }

Hope this helps.
