[Solved] Grid Toolbar: Mixing Template and Edit buttons

[nachid]

I am trying to mix a toolbar template and an Insert button
Here is the code

Html.Telerik().Grid()
    .ToolBar(toolBar => { toolBar.Insert().ButtonType(GridButtonType.ImageAndText);
                    toolBar.Template(() =>  {%>
                                       <div>this is another text place</div>
                                      <%} );
               }
           )

However, the template overrides everything and my Insert button is never rendered
Is this by design?
If so, what's the way to have my insert button included in my template
Thank you for your help

Hello nachid,

 Yes, this is by design. The toolbar template sets the html for the whole toolbar. You can try rendering the markup for the insert button inside the template definition. This markup depends on the button type of the command and you can check it by inspecting the source of the server editing example.

Thanks Atanas,
That exactly what I thought doing
I was not sure that the editing form will be rendered anyway.
I will give a try as soon as possible and let you know.

Thank you again

Can anybody post the code for adding the markup for insert inside the template definition of tool bar please

I would like to add 3 buttons viz., add, edit and delete to the toolbar. I have added the Html buttons(input tag) to the toolbar using templates. Now i would like to add functions to the click events of these.

When a row is selected and edit button is pressed i want the user to be able to edit the row. Is this possible can we simulate command.edit function using the row.select and having an edit button in the toolbar?

I am also looking to add buttons to insert/edit/delete buttons in the toolbar and hook them to the corresponding grid events.
Is is something trivial to do?
Thanks in Advance.
