    PROJECT DESCRIPTION
    When using the PopUp edit form in RadGrid, the default location the popup appears in may not always meet the needs of the project. You may need to position the popup edit form on the center of the grid, the viewport or immediately below or above the edited item. This code library project gives you an ASP.NET AJAX extender control that can be used to customize the popup location in RadGrid.

    The GridPopupPositionExtender provides easy configuration for the display position of the RadGrid Popup edit form. To setup the GridPopupPositionExtender:

    1. Enable the Popup edit mode in RadGrid (RadGrid.MasterTableView.EditMode = GridEditMode.PopUp)
    2. Add a GridPopupPositionExtender to your page and set the TargetControlID of the extender to the ID of the RadGrid.

    Once the extender is attached to RadGrid, you can configure the following extender properties:

    • RelativeTo - specifies the object relative to which the popup will be positioned.
    • HorizontalPosition - specifies the horizontal alignment of the popup relative to the specified object.
    • VerticalPosition - specifies the vertical alignment of the popup relative to the specified object.
    • HorizontalOffset* - specifies the offset (in pixels) from the specified horizontal position and relative object.
    • VerticalOffset* - specifies the offset (in pixels) from the specified vertical position and relative object.
    • EnablePopupMove - specifies whether the popup can be dragged.

    * The HorizontalOffset and VerticalOffset properties are not applied when the HorizontalPosition and VerticalPosition properties are set to Center and Middle, respectively.

    When the GridPopupPositionExtender is attached to RadGrid, the position of the edit form that is opened each time you edit an item will be set by the extender based on the setting you have defined.
