George,
If you add this to your included CSS file then it will give you control
over that outside button when used in a query operation row.
You may have to override other classes for normal buttons but you should
get the idea....
.k-button.aw-link{
border-style: hidden;
padding: 0,0,0,0;
margin: 0,0,0,0;
background-color: white !important;
border-radius: none !important;
}
.k-button:hover,.aw-link:hover{
padding: 0,0,0,0;
margin: 0,0,0,0;
background-color: #EDF2F4 !important;
border-radius: none !important;
}
