Hide detail tables

[Joel]

We want to make the ability to see detailtables permission based.  some may get no detail tables, some may get detailtable 0 and others detailtable 1.  Users with no permissions should not see the "+" at all

 grid1.MasterTableView.DetailTables(0).Visible = False

doesn't seem to get the job done.  Any ideas?  Permissions won't be set until after a postback.

Hi Joel,

Try with the following approach and see if it helps.

CS:

 protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        foreach (GridDataItem item in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items)
        {
            if (item.Expanded)
            {
                //Check for the Permission here and then set visibility
                item.ChildItem.NestedTableViews[0].Visible = false;

            }
        }
    }

Thanks
Shinu.

Thank you Shinu.

I had seen similar attempts in other postings.  This hides the contents of the detail table, but only after expansion.  What I am looking for is the mastertable to not have the the expansion column at all.   Having a "+" that does nothing will be kicked back as a bug.  Any other ideas?

Hi Joel,

Here is the code snippet to hide the Expand/Collapse image in the Expand/Collapse column of a Hierarchical Grid.

CS:

 protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        foreach (GridDataItem item in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items)
        {
            TableCell cell = item["ExpandColumn"];
            cell.Controls[0].Visible = false;
        }


    }

Thanks
Shinu.

((GridDataItem)e.Item)["ExpandColumn"].Controls[0].Visible = false;

Seems to preserve the formatting, the other way ( ((GridDataItem)e.Item)["ExpandColumn"].Enabled = false; ) gets the alignment out of whack.
