set MasterTableView.ShowGroupFooter in code not working

[Margo Noreen]

I would like to Hide/Show a group footer based on a condition.

 

I have tried to add code like this:

grid.MasterTableView.ShowGroupFooter = bSomeState; // boolean true/false value

 

I've tried adding that to the OnDataBound event, to the PageLoad event, to the Page PreRender event.  But nothing works.

 

For example, lets say that there is no declarative markup added to the grid, so the default for ShowGroupFooter is false.  Then I added a

    grid.MasterTableView.ShowGroupFooter = true

statement in various places in the codebehind.  The group footer is never shown.

Is there a solution here?

Hi Margo,

 

Try using the DataBinding event handler to achieve this requirement:
https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/aspnet-ajax/controls/grid/how-to/Common/using-the--getitems-getcolumn-and-getcolumnsafe-methods#columns

Any other later event would require you to call grid.Rebind() in order for the property to take effect.

I hope this will prove helpful.
