    I generally use the standard commanditem. However, when I use the commanditemtemplate I'd like it to look like the standard skinned commanditem (buttons, links, etc.).

    How do I best go about this?

    Hi Morten,

    The easiest way is to use the same HTML code (or similar one) as the one that is used internally by RadGrid. Please inspect the command item HTML output and take what you need from there. The internal HTML output of the command item is wrapped by a table cell with a rgCommandCell CSS class. All the HTML code that you have to review is wrapped inside a <table> :

    <table border="0" style="width: 100%;" class="rgCommandTable">
    ......
    </table>


    By default, the command row uses the so called sprite buttons:

    http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/css-sprites.html

    Here is how to mimic such a button inside the RadGrid CommandItemTemplate:

    <asp:Button CssClass="rgAdd" Text=" " />

    The CSS class and the single-spaced Text property matter the most.


    Kind regards,

    <CommandItemTemplate>
    <table border="0" style="width: 100%;" class="rgCommandTable">
    <tr>
        <td align="left">
        <asp:Button CommandName="InitInsert" runat="server" ID="btnAddNewRecord" Text=" " 
                    title="Add new record" CssClass="rgAdd" />
        <asp:LinkButton ID="lnkbAddNewRecord" CommandName="InitInsert" runat="server">
                Add     new Record</asp:LinkButton>
        </td>
        <td>Your Custom Commands Here</td>
        <td align="right">                                    
        <asp:Button CommandName="RebindGrid" runat="server" ID="btnRefresh" Text=" "
                title="Refresh" CssClass="rgRefresh" />
        <asp:LinkButton ID="lnkbRefresh" CommandName="RebindGrid" runat="server">Refresh</asp:LinkButton>
         </td>
      </tr>
    </table>
    </CommandItemTemplate>

    Hi Vasssek,

    Generally, you can use the auto-generated CommandItem and add your additional controls during the ItemCreated event handler. Could you elaborate on your specific requirement and send us sample videos or screenshots demonstrating the desired appearance?
