EmptyDataTemplate on the UltraWebGrid ??
posted

Hey guys,

 

I have a super dupper ultra web grid on my project and I couldn't figure out how to notify the user that no results were found.  Makes the user want to hit search again to make sure.

 So the question is:

 Is there a functionality on the UltraWebGrid similar to the  EmptyDataTemplate on the GridView control?

 

Currently I have a label outside the UltraWebGrid and I check on the DataBound event if rows were returned. but I think I should use, if any, built in functionality to accomplish this.

 

Thanks !

    Maybe the NoDataMessage property on the DisplayLayout setting will be helpful?

    <igtbl:UltraWebGrid ID="UltraWebGrid1" runat="server">
            <DisplayLayout NoDataMessage="Custom Message">
                ...
            </DisplayLayout>
    </igtbl:UltraWebGrid>

    Technically it might be supporting HTML should you need that, but for more complex appearance you may need to hide the grid and display your custom layout - could be easier than using NoDataMessage when there is a lot of HTML involved.
