Header Context Menu Filter - ComboBox Height

[Rory]

We are having issues with the height of the 2 RadComboBoxes that are in the Filter Menu. Is there a way to set these to a specific height like 100px?
Thanks.

Hi Rory,

You could handle on ItemDataBound/ItemCreated event, retrieve a reference to the RadComboBox inside GridFilteringItem and set the properties you need. The following example illustrates how you can change the height of the combo box:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
   {
       if (e.Item is GridFilteringItem)
       {
           GridFilteringItem filteringItem = e.Item as GridFilteringItem;
           RadComboBox combo = (RadComboBox)filteringItem.FindControl("RadComboBox1");
           combo.Height = Unit.Pixel(100);
       }
   }

I hope this helps.

Hi Pavlina,
This code doesn't seem to work. The control "RadComboBox1" is never found. Does this code not work when the Context Menu Header Filter Items are enabled? It seems like the ComboBox would be part of the ContextMenu that is showing on Right Click rather than inside a grid filtering item. 
Thanks.

Found the Answer. Pasted below. Thanks your code at least got me on the right track.

OnInit(EventArgs e)
{
    grid.HeaderContextMenu.ItemCreated += new RadMenuEventHandler(HeaderContextMenu_ItemCreated_SimsBasePage);
}


public void HeaderContextMenu_ItemCreated(object sender, RadMenuEventArgs e)
{
    if(e.Item.Value == "FilterMenuContainer")
    {
       RadComboBox combo = (RadComboBox)e.Item.FindControl("HCFMRCMBFirstCond");
       if (combo != null)
       {
          combo.Height = Unit.Pixel(500);
       }

       RadComboBox combo2 = (RadComboBox)e.Item.FindControl("HCFMRCMBSecondCond");
       if (combo2 != null)
       {
          combo2.Height = Unit.Pixel(500);
       }
   }
}
