Reduce page space with Radgrid.

[Marcio Nascimento]

Hi everyone,

I have this scenario: A web page with 7 RadGrids and all of them are related with each other.
It is possible when I select one row on the first RadGrid, this RadGrid shows only the row selected?

This procedure will help me to reduce the space used on the screen and at the same time shows only the relevant information to the user.

Thanks any help.

Hi Marcio,

Give a try with the following approach and see whether it helps. Set the EnablePostBackOnRowClick property  to true and then in the SelectedIndexChanged event hide the rows which are not selected.

ASPX:

<ClientSettings EnablePostBackOnRowClick="true"  >

CS:

    protected void RadGrid1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        foreach (GridDataItem item in RadGrid1.MasterTableView.Items)
        {
            if (!item.Selected)
                item.Display = false;
        }
    }

Thanks

Hi Shinu,

Thanks for your code. It works fine.
However, if I use a column to select the row and disable the option in smart tag: "Enable Client-Side rows selection", I continue to be able to select the row but the code not work.
Are you familiarized with that ?

Hello Marcio,

I am afraid that I understood your question correctly. I guess you are trying to implement server side selection using GridButtonColumn and the above given code is not working for you. But i tried with server side as well as client side selection and  the above given code is working fine on my end.

ASPX:

<telerik:GridButtonColumn HeaderText="ButtonColumn" UniqueName="BtnCol" Text="Select" CommandName="Select"></telerik:GridButtonColumn>

CS:

 protected void RadGrid2_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        foreach (GridDataItem item in RadGrid2.MasterTableView.Items)
        {
            if (!item.Selected)
                item.Display = false;
        }
    }

NOTE:
If you are implementing Server side selection set the EnablePostBackOnRowClick property to false.

Hi Shinu,

I think I'm missing something because the code you provide is not working for me.
I can only get it to work when the option on smart tag: "Enable Client-Side rows selection" is marked.
The problem is that if I use this option, the user could select any row without need the GridButtonColumn either.
Maybe this is a bug of RadGrid??

Hi Marcio,

When client-side row selection is enabled using ClientSettings.Selecting.AllowRowSelect, users can select rows by clicking anywhere within the row or using a GridClientSelectColumn. Go through the following help article for getting more details about client side row selection.
Selecting a row with a click (client-side)

Server side row selection can be achieved with the help of a Grid a GridButtonColumn or TemplateColumn as described in the following help articles.
Selecting a row with a checkbox (server-side)
Selecting a row with a select button (server-side)

I am trying RadGrid1 CheckBox selected Rows display in RadGrid2. RadGrid1 has 5 columns including check box. If select 2 rows using checkbox in RadGrid1 then click SUBMIT button (buttons are seperate from the RadGrid1)  then selected checkbox rows to show in RadGrid2. If click Submit then the output will selected checkbox rows from the RadGrid1 and some the columns will add in the RadGrid2 output.
RadGrid2 OUTPUT= RadGrid1 output (Not Checkbox Column) + Some columns will add in RadGrid2

Can you please give me suggestions for this problem.

Hi,

Can you please share the code which you use for populating the rows from the first grid into the second one? The correct approach would be to build up a datasource for the second grid, based on the selected information from the first. Then assign this datasource to RadGrid2 and rebind it.

Kind regards,
