Expand button in hierarchical GridView overlaps text in GridViewHyperlinkGridColumn

Hi,

I have a problem: expand button in hierarchical GridView overlaps test in HyperlinkColumn. But TextBoxColumn has not this issue (please look at attachments)

Is this a bug? Or maybe I missed some property? Could someone please help me?

Hello, Sergey,          

By default, the TextImageRelation property of the GridHyperlinkCellElement is set to Overlay. In order to display the image before the text, it is necessary to handle the CellFormatting event and specify the TextImageRelation to be ImageBeforeText:

public RadForm1()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    this.radGridView1.CellFormatting += radGridView1_CellFormatting;
    GridViewHyperlinkColumn column = new GridViewHyperlinkColumn("Hyperlink column");
    this.radGridView1.Columns.Add(column);

    this.radGridView1.Rows.Add("http://www.telerik.com");
    this.radGridView1.Rows.Add("http://www.microsoft.com");
    this.radGridView1.Rows.Add("http://www.google.com");
    this.radGridView1.Rows.Add("http://www.cnn.com");
    this.radGridView1.Rows.Add("http://www.bbc.com");
    this.radGridView1.Rows.Add("http://www.telerikwatch.com/");
    this.radGridView1.Rows.Add("http://www.wikipedia.com");
    this.radGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill;
}

private void radGridView1_CellFormatting(object sender, CellFormattingEventArgs e)
{
    GridHyperlinkCellElement hyperlinkCell = e.CellElement as GridHyperlinkCellElement;
    if (hyperlinkCell != null)
    {
        hyperlinkCell.ContentElement.Image = Properties.Resources.bot;
        hyperlinkCell.ContentElement.ImageLayout = ImageLayout.Zoom;
        hyperlinkCell.ContentElement.TextImageRelation = TextImageRelation.ImageBeforeText;
    }
}

Thank you for your answer, but it didn't help.

I guess the "expand" icons in hierarchical grid's cells is not image. I use workaround

private void gridBuilds_CellFormatting(object sender, CellFormattingEventArgs e)
{
    GridHyperlinkCellElement hyperlinkCell = e.CellElement as GridHyperlinkCellElement;
    if (hyperlinkCell != null) {

        hyperlinkCell.ContentElement.TextImageRelation = TextImageRelation.ImageBeforeText;
        int leftPadding = e.Row.HierarchyLevel * 15 + 15;
        hyperlinkCell.Padding = new Padding(leftPadding, 0,0,0);
    }
}

 

But if you know the real solution, please could you help me?

Hello, Sergey,          

I was able to replicate the problem with the expander in a self-reference hierarchy and the hyperlink cells. I have logged it in our feedback portal. You can track its progress, subscribe for status changes and add your comments on the following link - feedback item.

I have also updated your Telerik points.

Currently, the possible solution that I can suggest is to set the MasterTemplate.SelfReferenceExpanderColumn to a different column. 

If you need any further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me.
