Question

I want to get the gridview page size from the drop down from the pagersettings

  <PagerSettings Mode="NumericFirstLast"  PageButtonCount="4" FirstPageText="First"
                        LastPageText="Last" Position="TopAndBottom" />

is it possible to do it, or should I go with a dropdown outside the gridview.

You need to add an extra DropDownList that upon SelectedIndexChanged it will set your Pager size using the PageSize property. Don’t forget to re-bind your datasource afterwards.
