Resize Column and Hide Filter Textbox

[Shawn]

I have a grid that is a little too large for my page so I want to hide a few of the filter textboxes, is this possible?  I have a checkbox template column on the grid but since I allow filtering the textbox displays for that columns too and I don't want it to.

I also have columns like "State" and "Zipcode" that I want to shrink the filter text box to save room, is there a way to do that?

Hi Shawn,

Try the following code snippet to set the size of the filter textbox.

CS:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCreated(object  sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
 if (e.Item is GridFilteringItem)
 {
   GridFilteringItem filteringItem = e.Item as GridFilteringItem;
   //set dimensions for the filter textbox
   TextBox box1 = filteringItem["State"].Controls[0] as TextBox;
   TextBox box2 = filteringItem["Zipcode"].Controls[0] as TextBox;
   box1.Width = Unit.Pixel(30);
   box2.Width = Unit.Pixel(30);

 }
}

You can remove filtering for GridTemplateColumn by setting AllowFiltering property to false.

ASPX:

 <telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="TempCol" AllowFiltering="false"  HeaderText="TempCol"  >
        <ItemTemplate>
            <asp:CheckBox ID="CheckBox1" runat="server" />
        </ItemTemplate>
 </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

Thanks
Shinu.
