[Solved] Message and Indicator on Reordering the column

[Dhileep Kumar Sampath]

Hi All,
           I am using RadGridView in my user control and I am allowing the End user to Reorder the Columns at runtime. When user tends to reorder the first column i want to show a message that "<ColumnName> cannot be Moved" but other columns can be moved. I dont want to restrict the reordering of column by setting the "IsReorderable = false" but the requirement is to show a message. Is that possible? I see that we can achieve this by using Columns.CollectionChanged event but this fires only after the column is moved. Can we display the message when column is dragged?

Also I want to show an arrow on the position of the column where the moved column will be dropped. Is there any way to do these operations?

Thanks,
Dhileep

Hi Dhileep Kumar Sampath,

Currently the IsReorderable property is the only way to prevent column reordering.

We will try to provide a ColumnReording event for a future release.

Hello Dhileep Kumar Sampath,

We have decided that we will not add such an event. You will have to use the property. Thank you for the understanding.
