Scrollbars from Parent Table cover DetailTables

[Tom]

Hello,

I have a RadGrid with a MasterTableView and one GridTableView defined within the DetailTables section.  The ClientSettings is set under the RadGrid.

When the parent record is expanded to show the DetailTable, the scroll bar is locked at the parent level.  How can the scroll bar cover the entire grid (both parent and child) with a single scroll bar (not the parent scroll bar and one per child record)?

Thanks

Hi Tom,

I am not sure I understand you, but generally, RadGrid normally can have only one vertical and one horizontal scrollbar, which scroll the MasterTableView. Since the detail tables are inside the MasterTableView, they will move together with the master rows during scrolling.

If you need a separate scrollbar for detail tables, here is how to achieve it:

If I am missing something, please provide some screenshots / demo, so that I can see what you are after.

Hi Dimo,

Thanks for the quick reply.  The question that I have is if it is possible to have the scrollbar from the MasterTableView be able to scroll enough to see all columns from the detail tables (I am only referring to the horizontal scrollbar).  In this case there is only one scrollbar.

I was able to successfully implement the alternate approach of having a separate scrollbar for each detail table as a fallback.  In this scenario though, there are multiple scrollbars: one for parent record from the MasterTableView and one for every expanded child record in the DetailTable off of tthe MasterTableView.

I can go with the implemented solution, but was just wondering if there was another way.

Thanks,

Hi Tom,

"if it is possible to have the scrollbar from the MasterTableView be able to scroll enough to see all columns from the detail tables"

This should be the case by default. If you are experiencing a different behavior, can you show us your RadGrid declaration, specify which RadControls version you are using and which browser? You can also attach a screenshot.
