    Hi,

    Have you provided any way to close window from ViewModel?

    With standard ChildWIndow I've binded DialogResult property to close window.

    Changing of RadWindow DialogResult doesn't cause window to close itself.

    Thanks,
    Alexey Zakharov.

    I've found you button attached proeprty TelerikNavigation:RadWindow.ResponseButton="Accept". May be button marked with this attached property should close radwindow?

    Currently I don't understand why it is needed.

    Hello Alexey,

    The RadWindow control dosn't provide such property that is able to close it. You could create an attached property that does the job. You could also use the WindowCommands.Close command (it causes the RadWindow control to close).

    We will log your request we may add this feature, but for now it is not supported.

    What is the reason not to mimick the standard Silverlight ChildWIndow behavior in this case where dialog is closed upon DialogResult value is assigned. Your current implementaion is not intuitive for Silverlight developers and provides additional overhead during migration to Telerik suite.

    Hi Denis,

     This feature is in our TODO list, but it is not planned for the 2011 Q2 release. You could track its progress in PITS. The item ID is 6281.

    You mentioned that "You could create an attached property that does the job." Can you please give a example of this?

    Hi Hai,

    We don't have such an example, but you could refer to this article, which explains the suggested approach. The article is for WPF, but this approach will work in Silverlight as well.

    Hope this helps.
