Radgrid filter position

[james]

Hi,

 

Is there a way to position the datepickers vertically on a date range filter column? Because of the number of columns, users are forced resize the datetime column to access the second datepicker in a range fileter.

Hi James,

For placing the second RadDatePicker on a new line when range filtering is enabled you can handle the server-side OnPreRender event of the grid and use the following code:

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    GridFilteringItem filteringItem = RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetItems(GridItemType.FilteringItem)[0] as GridFilteringItem;
    foreach (GridColumn column in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.RenderColumns)
    {
        if (column is GridDateTimeColumn && (column as GridDateTimeColumn).EnableRangeFiltering)
        {
            LiteralControl literal = filteringItem[column.UniqueName].Controls[0] as LiteralControl;
            literal.Text = "<span style='display:inline-block; width: 40px;'>" + literal.Text + "</span>";

            literal = filteringItem[column.UniqueName].Controls[3] as LiteralControl;
            literal.Text = "<br /><span style='display:inline-block; width: 40px;'>" + literal.Text + "</span>";
        }
    }
}

Hope this helps.
