FastNavigationStep not setting in GridDateTimeColumn

[Barry]

I have a RadGrid with a GridDateTimeColumn.  In the RadGrid1_ItemDataBound event handler, I am configuring the DatePicker.ShareCalendar.  The markup for the grid and the event handler are shown at the end of the post.

Note that I am setting the datepicker.SharedCalendar.FastNavigationStep = 12, so that the FastNavigation should jump by 12 months.

However, it still jumps by the default 3 months.  The FastNavigationStep property update is not taking.  Incidentally, the FastNavigationPreviousToolTip and FastNavigationNextToolTip are not taking either.

Any help would be appreciated.

Code:

         <telerik:RadGrid ID="grdFamily" runat="server" DataSourceID="ldsUserFamilyMembers" Skin="Vista"    Width="500px"
                 AutoGenerateColumns="false" AllowAutomaticDeletes="true" AllowAutomaticInserts="true" AllowAutomaticUpdates="true"
                    GridLines="None" PageSize="5" OnItemDataBound="RadGrid1_ItemDataBound"
                    AllowPaging="True"  >
                   
                    <MasterTableView DataKeyNames="pk_user_family_member"  TableLayout="Fixed" CommandItemDisplay="Top"  DataSourceID="ldsUserFamilyMembers" Width="500px">
                        <Columns>
                        ...
                        <telerik:GridDateTimeColumn  DataField="birth_date" PickerType="DatePicker" DataFormatString="{0:MMM dd, yyyy}" HeaderText="Birth Day" >
                            </telerik:GridDateTimeColumn>
                       ...

                        </Columns>
                        <EditFormSettings>
                            <EditColumn ButtonType="ImageButton" />
                        </EditFormSettings>
                    </MasterTableView>
                </telerik:RadGrid>

 protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Item is GridDataItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode)
            {
                GridEditableItem item = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;
                RadDatePicker datepicker = (RadDatePicker)item["DateTimeColumn"].Controls[0];
                datepicker.SharedCalendar.FastNavigationStep = 12; 
                datepicker.SharedCalendar.FastNavigationNextToolTip = "Next Month";
                datepicker.SharedCalendar.FastNavigationPrevToolTip = "Previous Month";
            }
        }

Hi Barry,

Try modifying your code like this:

void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Item is GridEditableItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode)
    {
        GridEditableItem item = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;
        RadDatePicker datepicker = (RadDatePicker)item["DateTimeColumn"].Controls[0];
        datepicker.SharedCalendar.FastNavigationStep = 12;
        datepicker.SharedCalendar.FastNavigationNextToolTip = "Next Month";
        datepicker.SharedCalendar.FastNavigationPrevToolTip = "Previous Month";
    }
}

That had no effect.  I am not sure why you thought it would, but I tried it to no avail.  Any other ideas?  I could publish a test page showing the problem if that would help.

Hello Barry,

I am attaching a test page in which the suggested approach works. Try ti out and let me know what differs in your actual grid.

All the best,

Thanks for your help.  Your snippet worked fine.  I don't have time right now to figure out why.
