[Solved] Outlook Skin is not configurable

[Joe]

Hi,
I'm using the grid and have created a nested master file.  However what is happening the Grid is not being placed in the correct column:

Can't attached the screen shot.  I changed the width and nothing happens can I adjust the Skin in the Grids?

thanks,

Hi Joe,

I am not sure what exactly is your issue. I guess you are trying to align the columns of a hierarchical Grid. You may refer the following help article which explains about this.
Aligning columns in each level of hierarchical grid

If this is not your requirement I would suggest you to send your aspx code. You may attach the screen shot of your Grid using the following link.

Hi,
I uploaded the image of my application.  Here is the scenario

I have a menu section and need to have a grid next to the that menu, howeve when I choose the Outlook Skin for the grid the grid is displayed under the menu because the width is too long.  How do I change the width.  I already tried the width within the control but it doesn't override the width of the CSS.

What is my work around.  Please review the attached file in Picamatic.

Thanks,
Joe

Hello Joe,

I am afraid we can't see the attached file in Picamatic, unless you provide the image URL.

As for your problem - RadGrid does not have a default width in any of its skins. So there is nothing there that could override the control's Width property if you have set it.

Maybe you will have to provide a code snippet of your implementation.

Hi,
All problem solved I embedded the grid to a table and controlled the layout that way.  FYI for anyone having this type of issue.

Thanks,
Here is my final HTML:

	<telerik:RadScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">
	</telerik:RadScriptManager>
	<table style="width: 550px">
	<tr>
	<td>
	<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" AllowSorting="True" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
	GridLines="None" Skin="Office2007" ShowFooter="true">
	<MasterTableView>
	<Columns>
	<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Prospectstatus" HeaderText="Status" UniqueName="Prospectstatus">
	<ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Left" Width="150px" />
	</telerik:GridBoundColumn>
	<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Statuscount" HeaderText="Status Count" UniqueName="Statuscount" Aggregate="Sum" HeaderStyle-Width="25px">

	</telerik:GridBoundColumn>
	<telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Emailcount" HeaderText="Email Count" UniqueName="Emailcount" Aggregate="Sum" HeaderStyle-Width="25px">
