I have a ultraWebGrid on my page - I added and bound a new WebDataGrid under it to compare them.
I then set the StyleSetName and StyleSetPath to use the same as my application ( although it's already set inside the web.config file - which the control did not pick up on).
After I set the properties were set I executed the app. The grid renders but not based on the AppStyle settings.
Why dosent the New Gid maintain the Same image names for the layout ?
I can see this is going to be a real pain to upgrade with in the future!
Hi Larry,
The CTP should be recognizing any appstyling information you specify in web.config, we will look into this. We are also planning on including style sets for all new controls that match the existing stylesets that we ship. However, this will not help if you have modified css classes in the styleset that are specific to the grid.
Currently, the WebDataGrid and UltraWebGrid do not share css classes or image resources in app styling. This is primarily driven by a more optimized and reliable rendering scheme for the new grid in which css classes are applied to different elements.
An interesting feature for Appstylist would be the ability to 'upgrade' a styleset created for the UltraWebGrid to the WebDataGrid. Would this be of value to you?
I have not set any additional CSS information on the WebDatGrid.
I have an UltraWebGrid above it and they StyleSet is applied to that grid no problem, but the new one is not.
Sounds like you may be using a styleset which has not ben built out yet. The ctp controls only have style informaiton in the following stylesets
