Show loading only in specific items of RadMenu

[ezequiel]

Hi,

I have a RadMenu, and I need to show the AjaxLoadingPanel only on some items.
Deal with this approach without luck.

any suggestions?

Hi Ezequiel,

 

You can achieve this requirement using the following approach:

1. Disable the postback action of the RadMenu.

2. Attach the client-side menu item clicked event.

3. On the items where you don't want to initiate server-action and show the loading panel, just do nothing.
On the items where you want to cause an action in the server-side, you can call the ajaxRequest() method of RadAjaxManager which will show the loading panel:

4. Set the target panel/container which will be updated by the menu as an UpdatedControl in the AjaxSettings with the initiator control to be the RadAjaxManager itself.

I hope this will prove helpful. If you have different requirements or further instructions, feel free to elaborate on your specific scenario and send us sample screenshots or video demonstrating the desired behavior.
