I have customer table that has 20 columns. And using EntityFramework I created a controller than a View. Everything works well. Only Index.cshtml page it is larger than I expected. From left to right I have to bottom scroll.
My layout uses standard MVC GridView. Is it possible to change the grid view to something different like a ListView?
Kind Regards

I want to show my records one at a time with navigation options to move to next/previous records. Is there any automatic option in MVC? I think I am looking for something like FormView (from Web Forms) in MVC using which we can show a single record in a form layout with paging options.
This is what I have done so far. Control on the left is a Panel with manual navigation buttons to navigate between records and on the right is the child grid that shows child record for each record selected in the left panel.
I have MVC 4 area and one of the view in this area needs not to use Layout page.
I am using _Viewstart in main application as well as area directory both.
Now, In page level, I have already applied Layout = null though Layout is applied. Even, I Layout=null apply in area Viewstart file though it appears.
Please help here. How to keep page without layout in area.
I'm developing a ASP.NET MVC5 razor project and I have a cshtml divided into two parts, left part has a div with a treeview with options like a menu and the right part is a div that I would like to load cshtml that correspond to the option selected in treeview, ¿how can I do to achieve this?
Thanks
I am making the assumption that this is a simple navigation that is consistent amongst all pages, for which you can put the common navigation in the _Layout.cshtml. This file contains all the common , , tags used for each page. If you put your navigation in here then it will also be displayed on each page.
The navigation options can then link to your normal actions which display the corresponding views within the layout page.
In this tutorial the author discusses adding a simple navigation (in the section "Using a Layout for common site elements") in the _Layout with the difference that the navigation is at the top and not at the side. You can use css to style the page differently.
I've created a layout with all the styling etc. I have a menu and sub menu here, also a 3 column layout for content.
The left column will be used as a filter for reports most of the time, center for main content and the right column for help tips depending on the view you're at.
Can I define what the links in the sub menu are?
What is populated in the Left and Right columns, depending on the current view?
If you're looking to add new content in those areas, you want to be looking at sections.
You can see an example of this in the default project, just do a file-new-project to check out the layout page. You'll want something like this in your layout:
#RenderSection("SideBar", false)
The false here lets you opt-out of putting sidebar content on a view.
Your view would then have something like this:
#section SideBar {
// your sidebar stuff
}

In my ASP.NET MVC 3 project I have a master layout with a section defined. This section is responsible for displaying content in a sidebar, when it has any content assigned to it.
The problem I've encountered is the following:
I have some edit views, where both the sidebar and the main area is used for editing data. In this case the sidebar and the main body should be wrapped into one single form with a single submit button.
What is the best solution for this? The solution I came up with is that when the functionality I mentioned is necessary, I set a boolean property in my ViewBag. If this property is true, the master layout is rendered with the sidebar and the main content area wrapped in a form.
Is there a better way to this? The solution I described is a bit 'hackish' for me.
I would have two layouts. One with a seperate side-bar, and one without. Then, in the pages you need a sidebar with editable fields, you include the sidebar in your content page, not in the master.
The boolean you are using in the ViewBag can be better represented in the Model for the view of the master page. You can then include the side bar using a partial view. It would look somehting like this...
master.cshtml:
#using (Html.BeginForm("ActionName", "Controller", "POST")){
//
// Master form elements go here
//
//Side bar
#if(Model.ShowSideBar){
#Html.Partial("MySideBarPartialView" [, Model.SideBarModel ] )
#}
#}
You model (if any) should have a property that is set with the model for the side bar.
