RadGrid GridTemplateColumn Alignment

[Mahesh Babu]

Hi,

I have a radGrid to which I want to add GridTemplateColumns which can be of type text,currency and controls. I want to align these something like text to be left aligned, currency to be right aligned with some format and controls to center aligned.

Is there a way to do this???

Thanks,
Mahesh

Hi Mahesh Babu,

I guess, you have seperate GridtemplateColumns with seperate format of TemplateItem, if so one sugestion would be setting UniqueName for each column and set the ItemStyle-HorizontalAlign property of gridcolumn accordingly after checking the UniqueName of column in PreRender event of RadGrid.

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_PreRender(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    foreach (GridColumn col in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Columns)
    {
        if (col.UniqueName == "TemplateColumn1")
        {
           RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetColumn("TemplateColumn1").ItemStyle.HorizontalAlign = HorizontalAlign.Right;
        }
        if (col.UniqueName == "TemplateColumn2")
        {
            RadGrid1.MasterTableView.GetColumn("TemplateColumn1").ItemStyle.HorizontalAlign = HorizontalAlign.Center;
        }
    }
}

If you have all the text, currency value and any controls in same GridTemplateColumn, then better way is to align the contents from ASPX itself.
