Group PagerText

[Linus]

Hi!

I know it's possible to customize the text in the pager by modifying the PagerStyle and the property PagerStyleFormat. However, when using grouping and paging together, you'll notice that in the GroupHeader there will be messages like "XXX: YYY (Showing 3 of 4 items. Group continues on the next page.)" and "XXX: YYY (... group continued from the previous page. Showing 1 of 4 items.)".

Is it possible to customize these pager messages as with PagerStyleFormat? Also, if it can be done in the ItemDataBound-event by calculating the number of items in the group, how would it be done?

Thanks!

Hi Linus,

The RadGrid.GroupingSettings collection of options give you the flexibility to localize the grid messages in the group header. If you need to completely rewrite the messages, you can use the ItemDataBound event of the grid:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Item is GridGroupHeaderItem)
    {
        GridGroupHeaderItem groupHeader = (GridGroupHeaderItem)e.Item;
        //groupHeader.DataCell.Text gives you all the text that is shown in the group header
    }
}

Kind regards,
