set position of ExpandCollapseColumn

[kamini]

Hi

I have set ExpandCollapseColumn-display=true and have set expand\collapse image. 

Everything is working properly. But this expand column takes zero index by default. I want to set it's position. If i want to have it as the last index column, What I have to do for it..?

Thanks
Kamini

Hi Kamini,

One approach would be to hide the autogenerated expand column and create your custom GridExpandColumn.

C#:

protected void RadGrid1_ColumnCreated(object sender, GridColumnCreatedEventArgs e)
   {
       if (e.Column.UniqueName == "ExpandColumn")
       {
           e.Column.Display = false;
       }
   }

ASPX:

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" OnColumnCreated="RadGrid1_ColumnCreated" . . >
    <MasterTableView >
        <Columns>
           . . . .
            <telerik:GridExpandColumn ButtonType="ImageButton" CollapseImageUrl="../Image1.bmp"
                ExpandImageUrl="../Image2.bmp">
            </telerik:GridExpandColumn>
        </Columns>
        <DetailTables>
            <telerik:GridTableView>
                <ParentTableRelation>
                  . . . .
                </ParentTableRelation>
            </telerik:GridTableView>
        </DetailTables>
    </MasterTableView>
</telerik:RadGrid>

Hi Princy

Thanks for replying.

your given solution works fine but by doing so, another problem arise is when i expand it, the other columns' positions get changed. 

I can see the space before DetailTable and MasterTableView Columns' position does not match with header position.

Do you have any solution to fix this issue.?

Thanks
