MVC Grid + Script manager?

[Greg Clouston]

I've added a grid control to my MVC on my view via the view markup. When I run the project everything works fine (sorting, filtering, paging and etc.)
As soon as I try to add the splitter control to the view it complains about requiring a script manager control. During my first attempt I added a AJAX script manager from the AJAX Extensions toolbox. It seemed to work but the AJAX function of the grid stopped working. I tried replacing the default script manager with the SF script manager control. Same result as before.

Is there any way to use the SF splitter control plus the various sub-controls required and the grid in an MVC 2 view?

I'm going to hedge my bets and say "No" now. :(

Hi Greg Clouston,

Thanks for evaluating Syncfusion Products. The response for this query has been updated in the incident 73089 also.

We have categorized the size attributes under scrolling and therefore to specify the basic size attributes in View, please refer to the below mentioned code snippet.

<%=Html.Grid("Grid1")
.Datasource(Model)
. . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . .
//Setting the size attributes of grid and width
.Scrolling(size =>
{
size
.Height(210)
.Width(1200);
})

.EnablePaging()
.EnableSorting()
.AutoFormat(Skins.Sandune)

%>

We will provide explicit support for specifying the size attributes in Grid builder in our volume1 2011 release.

For more details about setting the size attributes through builder, please refer our online documentation in the below link.

To Control the size attributes from the controller, you can directly set the width and height of GridPropertiesModel as below.

GridPropertiesModel model = new GridPropertiesModel
{
DataSource = new NorthwindDataContext().Orders.Take(100).ToList(),
AutoFormat = Syncfusion.Mvc.Shared.Skins.Sandune
};
//Setting height and width of grid. This will apply only if you set AllowScrolling to true.
model.Height = 210;
model.Width = 1200;
model.AllowScrolling = true;

Using Splitter control in Mvc:

We are also able to see the reported issue. We have to analyze more on the possibilities of hosting web splitter and other web controls inside MVC , however it would be of great help if you could please check and let us know if the above solution resolved your problem or if you would still like to import the web controls in Mvc. Also a list of other controls that you would like to host in MVC will be much helpful as we could then check and update you on the same.



Please let us know if you have any queries.

That answers my question in one of my other threads. Just not the question I posed in this thread. :(
