[Solved] Hiding Edit Button with custom EditFormSettings

[J. David]

Hello,

Have custom EditFormSettings with a delete button that is wired to a postback event handler.

<EditFormSettings>
...
<FormTemplate>
...

<telerik:RadButton ID="btnDelete" Text="Delete" Visible='<%# (Container is GridEditFormInsertItem) ? false : true %>' runat="server" CausesValidation="false" Icon-PrimaryIconCssClass="rbRemove" Icon-PrimaryIconLeft="4" Icon-PrimaryIconTop="4" onclick="btnDelete_Click"/>

</FormTemplate>
</EditFormSettings>
<LinqDataSource ...

code

 

dataContext.TableName.DeleteOnSubmit(item);

 

sdb.SubmitChanges();

rgFormEmail.DataBind()

Grid is shown and edit button is hidden. Code below resolves but why would the edit column be hidden?

rgFormEmail.MasterTableView.GetColumn("BtnEdit").Visible = true;

Hi David,

Could you please provide the code snippet of your EditButton because the one which you provided is for the Delete button? If the Visible expression is the same, the button will be visible only when you are editing a row. On insert command the button will be hidden.

Kind regards,
