Reg the text wrap in gridtemplatecolumn

[Dipen]

Hello,

I have a problem with the textwrap in gridtemplatecolumn,
There will be report Name field which can be around 200 characters wide. We are placing that o the gridtemplatecolumn as shown below.

 <telerik:RadGrid ID="ExpenseReportsGrid" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="false" GridLines="None" 
                PageSize="25" Width="800px" AllowSorting="true" AllowCustomPaging="true" AllowPaging="true" 
                OnItemDataBound="ExpenseReportsGrid_ItemDataBound"
                OnNeedDataSource="ExpenseReportsGrid_NeedDatasource">
<MasterTableView ClientDataKeyNames="Id" CommandItemDisplay="None" AllowMultiColumnSorting="false"
                DataKeyNames="Id">
<Columns>
<telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="ReportNameTempcol" HeaderText="<%$ Resources:global,lbl_ReportTitle %>"
                            SortExpression="ReportName" DataField="ReportName">
                            <ItemTemplate>
                                <asp:LinkButton runat="server" ID="ReportName" Text='<%# Eval("ReportName") %>'
                                    ForeColor="Blue"   OnClick="NavigateToSummaryView"></asp:LinkButton>                               
                            </ItemTemplate>
                        </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>
 </Columns>
</MasterTableView>
 </telerik:RadGrid>
When there is record under this column which has wide text, it is not wrapping. I tried putting ItemStyle-Wrap="true" for the template column. But it didn't work for us.

Any help to resolve this issue.

Thanks In advance,
Dipen

Hello Dipen,

its not wrapped because there is not any space in your label's text.

Manually handle this thing your way

or

1. Don't put the text in a label.

2. Put the label within a table and set the width of the table and/or cells so it is forced to wrap.

Hello Jayesh  ,
Thanks for your reply.
* You have mentioned that ''there is not any space in your label's text." I am not using any label here right. I am binding the text to the link button.
* Also the text is having space in the text.
Here is a sample text '123456712 3456789012 345678 90123 45678 901234 234567890 1234 123456789012 345678'.

I will try the manual way as you suggested. Is there any special solution which grid provides for such wrapping problem.

Thanks,
Dipen

Hello,
I tried that way which you suggested. Putting the table inside ItemTemplate as shown below. But it is not working for me.
<table width="100px">
 <tr>
<td width="100px">
   <asp:LinkButton runat="server" ID="ExpenseReportName" Text='<%# Eval("ExpenseReportName") %>'
               ForeColor="Blue"  OnClick="NavigateToExpenseReportSummaryView"></asp:LinkButton>
   <asp:Image ID="ProxyImg" runat="server" ImageAlign="TextTop" ImageUrl='../Resources/images/icons/delegate2.png'
               BackColor="Transparent" BorderColor="Red" Height="18px" Width="18px" CssClass="tt" />
</td>
</tr>
</table>

Any other help would be appreciated,
Thanks,

Hi Dipen,

Let me know what are the versions of both RadControls and your browser. This would help us provide more to-the-point answer.

Hi Daniel,

I am using Telerik controls of version 2012.1.411.35 version
Browser Mozilla 8.0.1
I tried today.
I used Table Layout as fixed.
Tried to put Wrap =true for all columns and master table.
Tried ClipCellContentOnResize="false" EnableRealTimeResize="true"

But it is still not wrapping text.
We are using grids in many places and we need to resolve this issue.

Could you pls suggest a way to resolve this.

Thanks & regard Dipen
