Hi I tried the code shown in http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/grdpreventgroupsexpansion.html
to hide the expand collapse button in my grouped grid.

However I was not able to remove the padding which shows up in IE7.

Can you help me with CSS to remove the padding for the grid. I have several other grids in my project. Is there something I can specify in the grid declaration itself?

Thanks.

Hi,

The cell padding of the group splitter column is removed as shown in the help article:

.rgGroupCol
{
  padding-left: 0 !important;
  padding-right: 0 !important;
}


Does this work in your case? Is this the padding that you are talking about, or some other padding?

Hi Anumeha,

The provided code is CSS code. You can put it in a <style> tag in the <head> of the page or in some external CSS file that you have in the application (create a new one if you don't have).

Hi Dimo,

I already tried the code in an external css file and in a style tag but the padding still shows up in IE7.

Hi Anumeha,

Here is a demo that works. I suppose you are not using a RadGrid version older than Q1 2009. If this is the case you should set HeaderStyle-CssClass="GridHeader_SkinName rgGroupCol" and ItemStyle-CssClass="rgGroupCol" for the GroupSpliterColumn in the ColumnCreated event.

<%@ Page Language="C#" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data" %>
<%@ Register Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" Namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" TagPrefix="telerik" %>
 
<script runat="server">
 
    protected void RadGrid_NeedDataSource(object sender, GridNeedDataSourceEventArgs e)
    {
        DataTable dt = new DataTable();
        DataRow dr;
        int colsNum = 4;
        int rowsNum = 2;
        string colName = "Column";
 
        for (int j = 1; j <= colsNum; j++)
        {
            dt.Columns.Add(String.Format("{0}{1}", colName, j));
        }
 
        for (int i = 1; i <= rowsNum; i++)
        {
            dr = dt.NewRow();
 
            for (int k = 1; k <= colsNum; k++)
            {
                dr[String.Format("{0}{1}", colName, k)] = String.Format("{0}{1} Row{2}", colName, k, i);
            }
            dt.Rows.Add(dr);
        }
 
        (sender as RadGrid).DataSource = dt;
    }
     
</script>

}
 
/*remove group splitter column padding*/

Hello Anumeha,

I inspected the RadGrid code and it turned out that you can't set the rgGroupCol CSS class to the GroupSplitterColumn programmatically, because it will be removed in the control's render stage.

So the only option is to remove the paddings client-side with Javascript, however, this will require a large number of DOM operations, which will slow down the browser. I suggest you to consider upgrading RadControls.

Another option is to completely hide the GroupSplitterColumn like this:

protected void RadGrid1_ColumnCreated(object sender, GridColumnCreatedEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Column is GridGroupSplitterColumn)
            e.Column.Display = false;
    }
