Hiding 'AddNewRecordButton' and Header after postback

[RB]

In my radgrid, on click of AddNewRecord, I open a user control with a search textbox and button. To hide the AddNewRecordButton and Header I have on RadGrid1_ItemCommand I have the following:

if (e.CommandName == RadGrid.InitInsertCommandName)
{
         this._RadGrid1.MasterTableView.CommandItemSettings.ShowAddNewRecordButton = false;
         this._RadGrid1.MasterTableView.ShowHeader = false;                     
 }

But when the search textbox retrieves results and I select one of the entries, a postback is done to display the selected the value, after which the header and AddNewRecordButton are again visible though, the user control is still open. Is there a way to hide it after the postback?

Hi,

You can try to use the following property to achieve this requirement:

RadGrid1.MasterTableView.IsItemInserted = false;

Generally, you can check the approach implemented in this live sample:

Hope this helps.

The sample you provided is not exactly what my problem is. 
Where should RadGrid1.MasterTableView.IsItemInserted = false; be added?

Hi Ruchi,

You can use the following approach to achieve the requested functionality:

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    bool isInserting = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.IsItemInserted;

    GridHeaderItem headerItem = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.Header)[0] as GridHeaderItem;
    headerItem.Visible = !isInserting;

    GridCommandItem commandItem = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.CommandItem)[0] as GridCommandItem;
    Button button = commandItem.FindControl("AddNewRecordButton") as Button;
    button.Visible = !isInserting;
    LinkButton linkButton = commandItem.FindControl("InitInsertButton") as LinkButton;
    linkButton.Visible = !isInserting;
}

That should do the trick.
