Export to Excel built-in icon for RadGrid is not visible in IE

[Kiril]

Hi,

 I've implemented RadGrid (2015 Q3) and I've enabled the built-in export to Excel using the following code:

<MasterTableView EnableViewState="false" NoMasterRecordsText="" CommandItemDisplay="Top">
    <CommandItemSettings ShowExportToExcelButton="true" ShowAddNewRecordButton="false" ShowRefreshButton="false" />
</MasterTableView>

The built-in icon does appear in Chrome and Firefox, but it does not appear in IE 9 & 10. In IE it is still clickable, just the icon itself is not rendered.

Is there any known compatibility issue with older IE versions?

 

Thanks!

Kiril

Sorry I did not clarify - all this is in a sharepoint 2013 visual web part.

It all looks like a problem in the skin. I'm using Bootstrap. When I change the skin to Silk the icon renders fine. Also with Silk skin the icon renders as Excel icon, while with Bootstrap skin it renders as PDF icon (this can be seen on the demo site as well: here).

 Is there any information when the next release is due and if this will be fixed by then?

Thanks!

Hi Kiril,

I am afraid this is a bug in RadGrid styles. I already logged it in our system and our developers will look into it. Meanwhile you can use the following workaround to display the Excel icon.

<style>
    div.RadGrid_Bootstrap .rgExpXLS {
        background-position: 8px -44px;
    }
</style>

You can also track the progress in our Ideas&Feedback portal.

As a token of gratitude for showing this problem to us your Telerik points have been updated accordingly.
