For my application, I would like to define the structure in an XML file.  I would like the grid to be hierarchical (easily defined in the XML structure) - however, I would like to have a complex layout.

I would like to achieve a NestedViewTemplate (for having a custom panel with HTML layout, or another feature such as the Telerik tab controls within my grid layout)

Is it possible to define something like this and load via XML?  I have the above working without the XML, but I cannot find how to achieve a NestedViewTemplate that is defined in XML.

Hello Neil,

If you need to have predefined RadGrid structure the best approach would be to use asp.net  .skin file, where you can define the markup of your RadGrid. In this way every RadGrid with set SkinID will have all properties set from that skin file. More information you could find here:

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
