Hi,

Please check the following code I tried which works fine at my end.

XAML:

<telerik:RadButton Name="RadButton1" Content="Fast Navigate >>" Click='RadButton1_Click' Margin="722,555,44,23">
</telerik:RadButton>

C#:

private void RadButton1_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    // Specify the desired number of pages.
    RadBook1.RightPageIndex += 10;
}

Thanks,
Shinu.

Thanks shinu.

I tried to add an image button instead but it is generating an error. Finally I tried to add an image inside button tag but i cannot set a source.
Any suggestion?

Hi Henry,

I guess the error is due to setting the content more than once. If you need to set a text content and an image, place the Image and TextBlock inside a StackPanel. Please have a look at the following sample code.

XAML:

<telerik:RadButton Name="RadButton1" Click="RadButton1_Click" Margin="311,512,310,50" Background="White">
    <StackPanel>
        <Image Source="Images/Play.gif" Width="30" Height="30"></Image>
        <TextBlock Text=" Play"></TextBlock>
    </StackPanel>
</telerik:RadButton>

Thanks,
Shinu

Hi Shinu,

Can we use the same code we use for silverlight radcontrols? I asked because both uses xaml nd same coding structure?

[Shinu]

Hi,

Certain controls such as RadAutoCompleteBox, RadComboBox etc supports code reuse. These controls shares a single codebase with its Silverlight counterpart. This means that you can achieve close to 100% code reuse for the controls logic if you have parallel Silverlight/WPF development. Please check  the Telerik WPF documentation of the corresponding telerik documentation to check if it support code reuse.

Thanks,
Shinu.

Hi shinu,
How can I add a pdf file and view in radbook. I checked google and got some old links telling that its not possible. So what can I do with this? 

[Shinu]

Hi,

Its possible with the recent versions of RadControls for WPF with the help of RadPDFViewer. Please have a look at the Telerik WPF RadBook demo which demonstrates integrating PDF viewer into RadBook.

Thanks,
Shinu.

Thanks Shinu, got things working fine. I have another doubt, whether pdfviewer can open password protected documents? I tried with one such doc, but failed. I just want to confirm this.

[Shinu]

Hi,

RadPDFViewer does not support password-protected documents as well as encrypted documents when a non-standard encryption method is used.

Thanks,
Shinu.
