Question about Command Column in Grid

[Jing]

Hi

I am using Telerik MVC extension version 2012.1.419.340 (trial). I had a problem with Command Column in Grid. I will use the example code on your website to explain my problem.

I have view like:

@model IEnumerable<Order>
@(Html.Telerik().Grid(Model)
    .Name("Grid")
    .Columns(columns =>
    {
        columns.Bound(o => o.OrderID).Width(100);
        columns.Bound(o => o.ShipAddress);
       columns.Command(commands => commands
                    .Custom("viewDetails")
                    .Text("View Details")
                    .DataRouteValues(route => route.Add(o => o.OrderID).RouteKey("orderID"))
                    .Ajax(true)
                    .Action("ViewDetails", "Grid"))
                .HtmlAttributes(new { style = "text-align: center" })
                .Width(150);
    })
    .ClientEvents(events => events.OnComplete("onComplete"))
    .DataBinding(dataBinding => dataBinding.Ajax().Select("_CustomCommand", "Grid"))
    .Pageable()
    .Sortable()
    .Filterable()
)

and my Order model like

public class Order{
  public int OrderID {get;set;}

  public string ShipAddress {get ; set; }

  public bool CanEdit {get; set;}
}

I would like my Command Column to use different Action depending on CanEdit value. For example, if CanEdit  is false, using action

columns.Command(commands => commands
                    .Custom("viewDetails")
                    .Text("View Details")
                    .DataRouteValues(route => route.Add(o => o.OrderID).RouteKey("orderID"))
                    .Ajax(true)
                    .Action("ViewDetails", "Grid"))
                .HtmlAttributes(new { style = "text-align: center" })

if CanEdit  is true, using action

columns.Command(commands => commands
                    .Custom("editDetails")
                    .Text("Edit Details")
                    .DataRouteValues(route => route.Add(o => o.OrderID).RouteKey("orderID"))
                    .Ajax(true)
                    .Action("EditDetails", "Grid"))
                .HtmlAttributes(new { style = "text-align: center" })

Can you give me some idea how to implement it?

Thanks

Hi mate,

You cannot change the route of the custom command on the fly.
If you using template column you will have more control over the request you perform and achieve your goal easier.
