Insert new row on desired position

[Thiago]

Hello,
I want implement a GridView with the funcionality of add new entries on specific positions. For sample, the grid will be loaded with five static rows, and the user just can add a new row above it. This way, the new row created by the user can be deleted or a new row can be added above it again. So, basically is this: the pre-loaded rows are statics, can´t be deleted, and the new rows can be deleted or a new row can be created above it.
How could I create a new row always above other row? In the nameOfGrid.BeginInsert() method the new row is created on the bottom of grid. 

I´ve attached two images to demonstrate the desired behavior. The first one shows the static rows pre-loaded, just with the option to add a new row. The second shows a new row created on the bottom of grid, with the option to add and remove a row. 

Thanks in advance,

Thiago

Hi,

 You cannot do that using BeginInsert() method of the grid. You should work directly with the collection bound to the grid. For example you can get the index of the current/selected item and use the collection Insert() method.

For sure Vlad.
Thanks by the light.
This is what I was looking for.

Can you provide a sample code to do what you just suggested?

Thanks.

Hi,

This is a sample code snippet illustrating the suggestion of my colleague:

var index = this.clubsGrid.Items.IndexOf(this.clubsGrid.SelectedItem);
clubs.Insert(index, newClub);

Please note that clubs is the collection bound to RadGridView with name clubsGrid.

Hi Dimitrina..
I also want some similar kind of functionality...
Need to Add one static row always at the bottom of all data in my radgrid irrespective of operation (sorting, grouping etc)
The row will need to look similar as below. Pls let me know in case you have any approach. I cant use footer as there s a seperate text for footers.

Hello,

You could redefine the template of RadGridView and embed your own custom footer and define it as you wish. 
Using Implicit Styles gives you the ability to easily extract and edit the default ControlTemplates of the controls. You can also follow this article on two different approaches on how to extract the ControlTemplates.

Thanks for the response.
I cannot customize the footer of my grid, As I have some already data for footer. Can you suggest any other way to add just a static row at the end of all rows in grid as in the screenshot apart from footer.

Hello,

There is not a way to configure our control to just add a static row at the end of all rows, however, once you edit its template, you can modify it in any way you wish.
