URGENT: Truncating a long running string without spaces with (..) in a ultrawebgrid column

Shalini posted over 13 years ago

I am using Infragistics 10.3 for ASP .Net 4.0. I have a webgrid bound to database. It consists of a column which stores File Path. Is there a way that instead of showing the whole path just show a part of it e.g., C:\folder1\folder2\folder3(...). When the user expands the column, he can see the full path.

Hello spradhan,

There is a property in the grid Display Layout of the row object (“RowStyleDefault”) called “TextOverflow” that can be set both in designer and in Code-Behind.

This property can be set as “Ellipsis” and the text will be displayed with ellipsis if overflows.

More about this property can be read here - http://help.infragistics.com/Help/Doc/ASPNET/2010.3/CLR4.0/html/WebGrid_Wrap_Text_or_Display_an_Ellipsis_in_Cells.html

Let me know if you have further questions.
