Expand row in code after inserting

[todor todor]

Hi ,

 I'm using Ajax RadGrid with NestedViewTamplates. So when I insert a row into master table, after inserting I would like to expand the inserted row,  and work with content in nestedview template
And second question is how I can put inserted row at top of table, right now it goes botoom

Thank you for your answer

Hello Todor,

1. Concerning your first question - attach an event handler to the OnPreRender event of the page, iterate the grid's Items collection locating the newly inserted item by its data key value and set the item's Expanded property to true.

2. As for displaying the newly-inserted item at the top - you need to set InsertItemDisplay="Top" for the MasterTableView.

I hope this helps.

Hi

After adding row into master table how can expand the row ? so its easy for user to add child record rather than do one more click to expand?
As per your previous answer do you have any example to iterate the grid's items collection to locate newly inserted item by data key value?

Hello Parimal,


I hope the following code library will shed some light on how to accomplish this.
Select Last Inserted Row

Set the Expanded property of GridItem (instead of Selected), to get the item expanded.
