RadGrid ItemStyle Padding-Right

[Michael Hurse]

Hi
A bit of a newbie question so should be quick to answer. I have created a radgrid with some columns with numeric data that also have filters. I have aligned these columns right but that leaves my text aligned with the filter symbol. I would like to add right padding to the cells so that the text is indented. I have applied a CssClass which works for font, background etc but I din't have any success when using the padding-right statement. Here is my code:

ASPX

 

<ItemStyle CssClass="ItemCellPad" />

 

CSS

.ItemCellPad

{

 

padding-right:10px;

 

}

What am I doing wrong??

cheers

Hello Michael,

Try adding the !important keyword to the code as shown below:
css:

<style type="text/css">

.ItemCellPad

{

text-align:right;

padding-right:40px !important;

}

</style>

The !important keyword  is used so that the corresponding appearance setting will dominate over the style specified in the Styles.css file of the chosen skin.

Thanks
Princy.

Hey Princy, thank you so much. I would never have worked that out in a million years I couldn't find any references to that in my searches. Thanks again, Michael
