Update Button Doesn't Appear in InPlace Edit

[Chris]

I am trying to update a single GridDropDown column in a RadGrid

the Edit Button is an Image Button, with different images depending on the value in the data selected in the dropdown

the Cancel button appears but not the Update - should I explicitly put something in the update button?  both buttons appear if I change it to Popup but that has its own problems

the XML for the data source for the dropdown

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<root>
    <CareerStage Text="None" Value="0" />
    <CareerStage Text="Developmental" Value="1" />
    <CareerStage Text="Improving" Value="2" />
    <CareerStage Text="At peak" Value="3" />
    <CareerStage Text="Declining" Value="4" />
    <CareerStage Text="Replace" Value="5" />
</root>

(there's some drag and drop which is working)

    protected void rgRoster_UpdateCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
    {
        GridEditFormItem theItemEdited;
        TableCell tCell;
        RadComboBox rcbCareerStage;
        bool GoodCall;
        int PlayerID, VirtualTeamID, CareerStage;
.....
}

the Grid

       OnItemCreated="rgRoster_ItemCreated" OnItemDataBound="rgRoster_ItemDataBound" OnEditCommand="rgRoster_EditCommand" OnUpdateCommand="rgRoster_UpdateCommand" Width="100%" runat="server" OnRowDrop="rgRoster_RowDrop" >

Hi Chris,

I've tried to reproduce this issue locally but the Update button appears as expected every time. You may have some custom CSS on the page which is breaking its visualization. Also, you can try to temporarily change the RenderMode of the grid:
http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/aspnet-ajax/controls/grid/mobile-support/render-modes#setting-render-mode

For this specific scenario you can also check the Batch editing which does not require an additional Edit button:
http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/grid/examples/data-editing/batch-editing/defaultcs.aspx

If the issue remains, please prepare a very basic runnable web site sample and open a formal support ticket to send it to us for further investigation.

Regards,
Eyup
