OnUserCommand event cannot be fired when RenderFormat=".Net"

[shane2004]

Hi, I find a problem when setting RenderFormat = ".Net", the OnUserCommend Event cannot be fired.

But it is working all right if switched to "Image"

Also if the RenderFormat = "Image", the hoverover on the customised icon didn't show icon properly with red cross on top of the icon.

But it is working all right if switched to ".Net"

Two things:

1) ToolBar commands are NOT sent back to the server when using the .NET Client Control. The UserCommand event is fired in the client and can be captured using JavaScript. You can then post a call back to the server by either doing a postback or an AJAX call.

Check out the following KB articles for details about capturing events in the client and sending AJAX callbacks to the server:

2) When rendering a custom command as an image, you need to provide an image file for your command and place it under: /yourapplication//UserCommands/<your command id>.png.

Thanks, Frank. However the solution for fixing the custom command is not working. The icon is appearing when first loaded, but not when you hover over it. Can you send me an exmple?

This works for me:

Command cmd = new Command(1);

cmd.Text =

"My Command";cmd.Script = "MyCommand";

chart1.Commands.Add(cmd);

chart1.ToolBar.Insert(0,

new ToolBarItem(1)); // 1 beign your command id

Then I have 1.png located under a UserCommands folder (on my application's root).

Thanks, Frank, however I realised the issue only occurs when you build the project by using IIS web server but not the visual studio development server.  Any suggestion?
