Razor syntax issue with RenderPartial (CS1501)

Question

The RenderAction is working just fine but as soon as I surround it with a if statement I get a compile error:

@if (@Model.IsConfigurationAllow)
{
    @{ Html.RenderAction("Save"); } // CS1501: No overload for method 'Write' takes 0 arguments
}

More general question where can I found the grammar for the Razor view syntax?

Remove @{} block code. Html.RenderAction("Save"); is enough. — jwaliszko

Html.RenderAction renders the HTML directly into the response, so you cant call it in a code block.

The counterpart Html.Action returns a string with the results.

I don't see why "renders the HTML directly into the response" Make a difference.

Did you try this?

@if (@Model.IsConfigurationAllow)
{
    <text>@{ Html.RenderAction("Save"); }</text>
}
