URGENT: RagGrid Features

[Taiseer]

Dear All,

I want to ask about some features if it is applicable in RadGrid for windows before buying the control:

First of all: I want to display HTML text (contains HTML Tags like <B>, <i> and font coloring HTML Tags) saved in the Database into grid column, is this can be done using RadGrid for windows? I mean will the column understand the html tags and convert them to colors and styles like what is happening with RagGrid for Web?

Second and the most important: I want to display multiple images (icons) in the same column, and each row contains different icons than the other, is there something like custom column (Template Column) that I can use to display multiple images in certain cell?

Another simple feature that I didn’t read about it, is paging supported in this grid?

 

Please before replying to this thread, be sure that the functionalities I want is doable with this Grid.

 

Regards,

Tayseer

Hello Tayseer,

Thank you for the questions.

Below are their respective answers:

1. Currently, RadGridView does not support reading and displaying data in a styled manner depending on HTML tags. We will consider adding this feature in the future.
2. You can make a custom column template which will support multiple images in just one cell. I have attached a project which demonstrates the appropriate approach.
3. RadGridView does not support paging and currently we are not planning to implement it. RadGridView supports virtualization of rows, which allows using the grid as a thin UI layer, where all data-specific logic could be put outside the control. This significantly improves the performance of the control when handing large datasets.

If you have additional questions, do not hesitate to contact me.
