[Solved] Hiding Rqad Grid ExpandColumn while inserting

[COLIN]

Hello,
I'm having a formating issue displaying my hierarchal grid in while my Grid is in insert mode.
When i switch my grid to insert mode i hide the ExpandColun.

protected void _orgGrid_ItemCreated(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Item is GridEditableItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode)
            {
                if (editItem.OwnerTableView.IsItemInserted)
                {
                     _orgGrid.MasterTableView.GetColumn("ExpandColumn").Display = false;
                }
            }

However, this causes my insert template (a user control) to be rendered in the second column of my grid and the first column has a large empty space.
Is there something i can do to force my user control to span across all columns?

The main goal i'm trying to achieve is to disable expanding of rows while the user is inserting an item.
Thanks.

Hi Colin,

Try the following approach to hide the Expand/Collpase button when the Grid is in Insert mode and see whether it helps.

CS:

 protected void RadGrid2_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridEditableItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode)
        {
            GridEditableItem editItem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;

            if (editItem.OwnerTableView.IsItemInserted)
            {

                foreach (GridDataItem dataItem in RadGrid2.MasterTableView.Items)
                {
                    dataItem["ExpandColumn"].Controls[0].Visible = false;

                }


            }
        }
    }

Shinu.

Thanks for your help.
This now hides each individual Expand/Collapse control but will keep the column.
