RadGrid paging slider.

Hi Christian,

Try the following code snippet to localize the Increase/Decrease tooltip in paging slider.

CS:

 protected void RadGrid1_ItemCreated(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridPagerItem)
        {
            GridPagerItem pager = (GridPagerItem)e.Item;
            RadSlider slider = (RadSlider)pager.PagerContentCell.Controls[1];
            slider.IncreaseText = "IncreaseCustomText";
            slider.DecreaseText = "DecreaseCustomText";

        }
   }

Thanks
Shinu.

Is this still the ONLY way to localize the slider paging control?  I'm looking for something that I can do without having to use code behind like in the above.

I see there are properties in the PagerStyle called NextPagesToolTip, PrevPagesToolTip, etc.  Is there any reason that these couldn't be the values used when you hover over the arrows on the sliders?

I'm just looking for a slightly less intrusive method than the one listed above.

Thanks.

Hi Kevin,

Indeed, at present you need to use some extra coding to achieve this task. However, I will suggest exposing a more straightforward way to customize the slider to our developers, for one of the upcoming versions of the control.

Hi Bastian,

Although the setting is not exposed yet. Once it is, the information will be reflected in the changes and backwards compatibility section.

Still no easy way to set the increase/decrease tooltip in paging slider or did I miss something?

Hello Andreas,

Indeed, at present no direct property has been exposed for this behavior. Although I cannot commit to a definite timeframe, our developers will look into possible ways to implement this feature for one of the upcoming versions of the control.
