Grid Detail Table CommandItem

[Matthew]

Hi all,

How would I go about showing/hiding the CommandItem for a detail table from an external button in the code behind.Our webapp has a set of "new", "edit" & "save" buttons created in a masterpage which are enable/disabled based on the users access rights. I want to be able to allow a user to create a new record within a radgrid at both the master table and detail table level. I can enable the CommandItem for the master table but i cant do it for the detail tables. I've tried looping through the NestedTableView items but on a rebind the grid doesn't change

 

Thanks Matt

Hi Matt,

Generally, you can traverse the GridTableViews to achieve this requirement:
http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/aspnet-ajax/controls/grid/hierarchical-grid-types-and-load-modes/how-to/hiding-the-expand-collapse-images-when-no-records

Alternatively, you can enable all command items:

<telerik:GridTableView ...
    CommandItemDisplay="Top" Name="OrderDetails">

and alter their visibility depending on some global variable/condition:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Item is GridCommandItem && e.Item.OwnerTableView.Name == "OrderDetails")
    {
        GridCommandItem commandItem = (GridCommandItem)e.Item;
        commandItem.Visible = false;

        // commandItem.Display = false;
        // commandItem.Style["display"] = "false";
    }
}

Hope this helps.
