Modal Popup Edit Form

[Nyron]

Hey Guys,
 I am using the 2008.3.1125.20 release of Rad Ajax controls, I have a RadGrid that uses a usercontrol (MyControl.ascx) to Insert/Edit records. I have set the EditForm mode to pop up, when I click the edit button on the grid the editfrom appears, But it is not accessible. It is grayed outed with the rest of the page, this renders the page useless at this point as I can access niether the edit form nor any other controls. I am using a Master/Content page so I don't know if this is causing the problem.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Nyron.

Hi Nyron,

The popup edit form is a child element of RadGrid. So, in order to be able to show up above the modal background, RadGrid must not be placed in a relatively/absolutely positioned container. If this is your scenario, please set the popup edit form to be non-modal or use another type of editing (EditForms, InPlace).

We may remove this limitation in the future by making the popup edit form render outside RadGrid.

Hi Julieta,

This problem is already fixed in the latest version of RadGrid control as you can see from our online example
PopUp Edit Form

You can upgrade to the latest version, to take care of the issue.

All the best,

Hi Julieta,

If the issue persists, you can open a formal support ticket, and send us a small working project, demonstrating your setup, and the unwanted behavior. We will review it locally, and advise you further.

I am having some frustration with the Popup Modal limitation too.
Namely, when using the RadButton, the container MUST be relatively positioned, otherwise it will not scroll.  Having 2 controls with competing requirements really does make UI design very difficult.
A work around for such situations would be greatly appreciated.
**
For a bit of a scenario, I use RadSplitters and RadPanes to layout my page, and use and asp:Panel to contain the databound items (for AJAX updates).  This panel needs to be relatively positioned so that RadButton will scroll as expected. The RadGrid modal popup will then not function as required.

Thanks,
Steele.

Hi Steele,

If you need this scenario to work in IE7 and IE8 compatibility mode, please do not use a modal popup edit form, or rework your page layout, if possible.

Best wishes,

The demo where the modal PopUp edit form is, is not really modal as users can edit other records while the form is still open. It looks like it is modal, but it is not.

We have tried this in Google Chrome and IE 11, both. It is not modal.

Hi Jim,

Could you confirm that the version of Telerik Ui for ASP.NET AJAX you are using is the latest one - 2016.2.607? I have tested the modal popup edit mode and it works properly on my end.
