GridTextBoxColumnEditor Width

[Geoff]

Hi, I have a RadGrid that is basically copied from the Batch Editing demo (FYI, I'm a Telerik newbie). Functionally it all works great and I was pleased with how quickly I was able to convert the demo to suit me needs. However, I have one small issue with the GridTextBoxColumnEditor control width. No matter what I try to set in the aspx code, the text box width is resolutely fixed at what looks to be 100px-150px.
In the code sample I've included below, the textbox width is set to 200px. I can change this to 2px or 2000px or just delete the line altogether. It makes no difference. Could anyone help please?

Hi Geoff,

Please set the ColumnEditorID for the GridBoundColumn which corressponds to the ID of the GridTextBoxColumnEditor. Please try the following code snippet.

ASPX:

<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="QuantityPerUnit" HeaderText="Quantity Per Unit"
UniqueName="QuantityPerUnit" ColumnEditorID="TextEditor">

</telerik:GridBoundColumn>

 

<telerik:GridTextBoxColumnEditor runat="server" ID="TextEditor">

  <TextBoxStyle Width="100px" />

</telerik:GridTextBoxColumnEditor>

Thanks,
Princy
