[Solved] How to register embedded skin for a radgrid

[Muhamed Shafi]

Hi there,
    How can I use an embedded skin for a rad grid ? I used the coding below

<telerik:RadGrid runat="server" ID="rdGd1"  EnableEmbeddedSkins="true"

 

 

 

skin="MySkin" GridLines="None">

 

which gives me an error like :

Telerik.Web.UI.RadGrid with ID='rdGd1' was unable to find embedded skin with name 'MySkin'. Please, make sure that you spelled the skin name correctly, or if you want to use a custom skin, set EnableEmbeddedSkins=false.

Could you please give me a solution for this ?
Thanks
Shafi

Hello Muhamed,

In order to set the Skin property of the RadGrid to an existing skin name set the RadGrid property EnableEmbeddedSkins as "False". Check the following documentation which explains more about this.
Modifying existing skins/creating new skins.

Thanks,
Shinu.

Hi Muhamed,

Custom skins are not embedded so the control cannot register them automatically. If you want to use a custom skin you need to set the Skin property, and the EnableEmbeddedSkins property of the control to false.
Refer to the help article below for more information:
