Font settings for AutoGenerated EditTemplate

[Reid]

I have a RadGrid that is using AutoGenerated templates for INSERT and UPDATE.

Whether it is EditMode="InPlace" or not, how do you change the TextBox or control's widths and their fonts?

Currently the EditMode property is not set which defaults to an Edit Template.  I am just not sure how to get that template and it's controls to alter their styles.

Thanks

Hello,

You can change the style of controls using following code.Hope this might help you.

ASPX:

<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Name" HeaderText="Name" UniqueName="Name">
  </telerik:GridBoundColumn>

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {

    if ((e.Item is GridEditFormItem) && (e.Item.IsInEditMode))//if EditMode is 'EditForms/PopUp'
 {
              GridEditFormItem editItem = e.Item as GridEditFormItem;
              TextBox txtname = (TextBox)editItem["Name"].Controls[0];
              txtname.Width = Unit.Pixel(30);
   }
   }

Thanks,

Thank you, that did it.

Do you happen to know how to iterate through a GridEditForm's controls?  Rather than placing the same redundant code in every ItemDataBound handler, as well as needing to refer to them by name. I would like to use a HTMLHelper class to format controls.  The code below does not work.  Do you know how to do this?

public static void FormatEditControls(GridEditFormItem formItem)
        {

            foreach (Control item in formItem.Controls)
            {
                if (item is TextBox)
                {
                    TextBox txtBox = (TextBox) item;
                    txtBox.Width = Unit.Pixel(200);
                    txtBox.Font.Name = "MsSanSerif";
                    txtBox.Font.Size = FontUnit.Point(9);
                    txtBox.Font.Bold = false;
                }
                if (item is RadTextBox)
                {


                }
            }
        }

Thanks,

Hello,

The following code helps you to iterate through each GridEditForm. Hope this helps you.

C#:

foreach(GridEditFormItem editItem in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.EditFormItem))
//loops throgh all  RadGrid edit row
       {
        //your code
       }

Thanks,
