Header fo Column-Header / Header Grouping

[Gernot]

Hello,
is it possible to create a Grid with the following structure:

Header-Grouping
Header1	Header2	Header3	Header4
Row	Row	Row	Row

Header1 to 4 are Column-Headers. I want to create a Header-Group. I need something like colspan... Is this posible with the RadGrid?

Many Thanks for your help.

Hi,

You can use a GridTemplateColumn to achieve the desired scenario. Go through the following help article for more details.

Hello,
thank you for your help.

In this case the grid columns are bound columns :-(

I think you cant use item-template with bound columns.

Thanks

Hi Alaeddin,

The multi-header layout you request is attainable with GridTemplateColumns only (configuring their item template/header template appearance). Hence if this customization is a prerequisite for you, consider replacing your GridBoundColumns with template columns.

Hi Alaeddin,

You can also have a look at the following code library submission.

I will give it a try ;-)

Here is an alternative used in a group footer example that is less difficult than the one described in the code sample span cells in grid over multiple.

 

protected void rgSnapshotGrid_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Item is GridGroupFooterItem)
    {
        //We assume that the total is in the last column
        string columnGroupTotal = item.Cells[item.Cells.Count - 1].Text;
        int cellCount = item.Cells.Count;

        item.Cells.Clear();

        TableCell cell = new TableCell();
        cell.Text = String.Format("Account Subtotal: {0}", columnGroupTotal); ;
        cell.ColumnSpan = cellCount;
        cell.HorizontalAlign = HorizontalAlign.Right;

        item.Cells.Add(cell);
    }
}
