Updating a TabStrip from a RadGrid

[Ulrich]

Hello,

I have the following scenario (dynamically created during runtime):

A RadGrid
A RadTabStrip

Depending on the sort column and type of the radgrid, the radtabstrip shows different tabs like (for a string column):

"Show all"
"A-C"
"D-F"
etc.

When clicking on one of the tabs, the database call is adjusted so only the corresponding sets are returned.

I added an RadAjaxManager, adding the following settings during runtime (this.ContentAwarePager is a class overloading the RadTabStrip):

                   

                    if (this.ContentAwarePager != null)
                    {
                        AjaxUpdatedControl ucgrid = new AjaxUpdatedControl();
                        ucgrid.ControlID = this.ID;

                        AjaxUpdatedControl ucpager = new AjaxUpdatedControl();
                        ucpager.ControlID = (this.ContentAwarePager as WebControl).ID;

                        AjaxSetting gridtopager = new AjaxSetting();
                        gridtopager.AjaxControlID = this.ID;
                        gridtopager.UpdatedControls.Add(ucgrid);
                        gridtopager.UpdatedControls.Add(ucpager);

                        ram.AjaxSettings.Add(gridtopager);

                        AjaxSetting pagertogrid = new AjaxSetting();
                        gridtopager.AjaxControlID = (this.ContentAwarePager as WebControl).ID;
                        gridtopager.UpdatedControls.Add(ucgrid);
                        gridtopager.UpdatedControls.Add(ucpager);

                        ram.AjaxSettings.Add(pagertogrid);
                    }

Furthermore, I have a listener on TabClicked, which rebinds the datagrid.

When I click on a tab, everything works fine, and the ajaxmanager correctly handles the updating of the grid.

But when I catch the sort event, and remove and add tabs to the TabStrip (depending on the type of the column), the RadTabStrip is not "redrawn", if you know what I mean.

Is there a possibility to achieve this behaviour through the RadAjaxManager?

best regards for your help

Hello Ulrich,

You should also add an ajax setting which allows the web control which inherits RadTabStrip to update itself.
