Missing HierarchySettings on DetailTables

[Jan Pfeffer]

Hey at Telerik

I would like too know if there is a way to set the tooltip text for the expandcolumn on detailTables?

The RadGrid has HierarchySettings but no such attribute exists on the detailTables or MasterTable, a suggestion to an improvement perhaps.

+ Expand Customer
    + Expand Orders
        + Expand OrderLines

Hello Jan,

You can set the tooltip for the GridExpandColumn as shown in the code below:
C#:

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        RadGrid1.HierarchySettings.ExpandTooltip = "My custom text";
    }

Additionally, you could also refer the following help article which explains how to localize tooltips in Grid:

I hope this helps.

Hello Pavlina

I have changed the  HierarchySettings on the RadGrid.
<HierarchySettings ExpandTooltip="Expand orders" CollapseTooltip="Collapse orders" />

What i need is a way to set the tooltips on DetailTables.

The HierarchySettings above sets tooltips for all tables in the grid, MasterTable and DetailTables.

I wan't to set different Expand- and CollapseTooltips for my different DetailTables

For instance.

(0)       My MasterTable has Customers.
(0,0)    DetailTable has Orders            Here i have tooltips as described above i HierarchySettings.

(0,0,0) DetailTable under Orders DetailTable has OrderLines

This is where my problem comes. Here i would like ExpandTooltip and CollapseTooltip to be
"Expand Orderlines" and "Collapse orderlines" and not "Expand orders" and "Collapse orders".

I hope this shows my problem a little clearer.

Sincerly Jan.

Hi Jan,

The RadGrid.Items collection contains all items from all tables in the hierarchical structure of Telerik RadGrid. By simply looping through the collection you can access all data-bound items, their controls and so on.

More info is available here:
