where are the events?

[Ralph]

hello

I needed some custom filter controls. So I created my own column-class:

public class GridColBound : GridBoundColumn

and created my own filter-control:

protected override void SetupFilterControls(TableCell cell)

 {

     base.SetupFilterControls(cell);

     cell.Controls.RemoveAt(0);

     Label _lbl = new Label();

     _lbl.ID = "FilterLabel" + this.DataField;

     _lbl.Visible = true;

     _lbl.Text = "Filter";

     _lbl.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Green;

     _lbl.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.White;

     _lbl.BorderColor = System.Drawing.Color.Black;

     _lbl.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.Solid;

     cell.Controls.AddAt(0, _lbl);

     cell.Controls.RemoveAt(1);

 }
...

Everything worked as expected, but: No more events are thrown. No ItemCommand, no RadToolBar1_ButtonClick.

What can I do?

thanks

Hello

almost.... i could resolve most issues by generating the grid in page_init and using EnableColumnsViewState = "false"  
But with one important exception: There is no UpdateCommand! I use custom editors with a "Save"-Button:

<asp:Button ID="btnUpdate" Text="Speichern" runat="server" CommandName="Update" Style="margin: 10px;"
        ToolTip="<%$ Resources:AppStrings, ToolTipSpeichern %>">
 </asp:Button>

but if I use my inherited columns and EnableColumnsViewState == "false" there is no UpdateCommand when I click it.

Hello Ralph,

Could you paste your complete code-behind and aspx? What command are  you throwing and how - the fitlering one? Please, supply more details.

Hello Tsvetoslav

sorry, we have dropped that code, because we decided to implement a custom filter-form. The Filter-bar of the grid is only used for visualization now, which works great.

thanks

Hai Raiph,

How you implemented that custom filtering. I want to call the filter command on clicking a button which is not in the grid. Is there any way?
