Multiple Footer Records

[Avo]

Hi,

We are using a RadGrid control and wanted to know if there was a way to display multiple footer records.

We currently do not have footers turned on in the grid but instead return the total and totals for Applications records in the actual data that we receive in the dataset we get back from querying the database.

We then color these last 3 records to make them appear like footers on the bottom of the grid. 

I have attached a screenshot of the grid for reference.

We noticed that these last 3 records do not behave like true footers when using the filtering capabilities of the grid.

Please advise if we can achieve this same results by using actual footers in the RadGrid. 

Thanks!

Hello Avo,

The built-in footer of RadGrid generates a single TR element and there it could not be modified to render multiple rows. Furthermore, the footer will display the calculated aggregates and from the provided screenshot it seems that it could not be used in your scenario.

Additional information on the columns aggregates could be found in the following help article:

• Aggregates

Hi Konstantin,

Thank you for your response.  Is there a custom footer available which can help me achieve the same results I provided in my earlier screen shot?

Thanks!

Hi Avo,

Footer templates are available only for template columns, so if you need to customize the entire footer row you might consider using only GridTemplateColumns in your RadGrid:

<telerik:RadGrid runat="server" ID="RadGrid1" OnNeedDataSource="RadGrid1_NeedDataSource" ShowFooter="true">
    <MasterTableView AutoGenerateColumns="false">
        <Columns>
            <telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
                <ItemTemplate>
                    value
                </ItemTemplate>
                <FooterTemplate>
                    some template
                </FooterTemplate>
            </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
        </Columns>
    </MasterTableView>
</telerik:RadGrid>

Hope this helps.
