I don't think the Greeks like me

[Dan]

At least, not the Gods (although IIRC Prometheus was a titan, not a God).

Anyway.

Started a new AJAX-Enabled web site.
Dragged a Splitter on to it. Splitter is outlined in red (I don't know if this is significant, there were no errors, but generally red's not a colour used to signify that everything is hunky-dory, is it?).
Tried to drag a pane on to the splitter. Can't. Cursor shows a no-drop sign.

<sigh/>

I've not found anything by (skim) reading the docs.

Can you help, or should I just give up, cancel my holiday to Zante (lest I'm struck down) and have a week in Bognor Regis instead?

I can cut'n'paste a control on to the page....

<telerik:radsplitter runat="server" id="RadSplitter1"
  orientation="Horizontal" width="400px" height="300px">
  <telerik:radpane runat="server" id="LeftPane" EnableEmbeddedSkins="False" Height="" Index="0" Width="">
    <asp:label runat="server" id="LeftLabel">Prometheus Left pane</asp:label>
  </telerik:radpane>
  <telerik:radsplitbar runat="server" id="RadSplitBar1" collapsemode="Backward" EnableEmbeddedSkins="False" Index="1" />
  <telerik:radpane runat="server" id="MidPane" EnableEmbeddedSkins="False" Height="" Index="2" Width="">Prometheus Middle pane</telerik:radpane>
  <telerik:radsplitbar runat="server" id="RadSplitBar2" collapsemode="Both" EnableEmbeddedSkins="False" Index="3" />
  <telerik:radpane runat="server" id="RightPane" EnableEmbeddedSkins="False" Height="" Index="4" Width="">Prometheus Right pane</telerik:radpane>
</telerik:radsplitter>



<radspl:radsplitter runat="server" id="RadSplitter2"
  orientation="Horizontal" width="400px" height="300px">
  <radspl:radpane runat="server" id="Radpane1" EnableEmbeddedSkins="False" Height="" Index="0" Width="">
    <asp:label runat="server" id="Label1">r.a.d.Splitter Left pane</asp:label>
  </radspl:radpane>
  <radspl:radsplitbar runat="server" id="RadSplitBar3" collapsemode="Backward" EnableEmbeddedSkins="False" Index="1" />
  <radspl:radpane runat="server" id="Radpane2" EnableEmbeddedSkins="False" Height="" Index="2" Width="">r.a.d.Splitter Middle pane</radspl:radpane>
  <radspl:radsplitbar runat="server" id="RadSplitBar4" collapsemode="Both" EnableEmbeddedSkins="False" Index="3" />
  <radspl:radpane runat="server" id="Radpane3" EnableEmbeddedSkins="False" Height="" Index="4" Width="">r.a.d.Splitter Right pane</radspl:radpane>
</radspl:radsplitter>

Interestingly, once I've pages the above code in to the 'Source' tab, if I switch to the 'Design' tab, Splitter2 and all of its children are available in the drop-down at the top of VS's Properties tab. Of the Pr controls, only Splitter1 is available.

What's more, all of the child controls of Splitter2 are properly visible in the Design tab whilst none of the children of Splitter1 are.

I've tried rebooting my machine (I didn't after installing AJAX.NET) but to no avail.

Hello Stuart,

I am not able to check right now but I read somewhere else about the need to move the Telerik.Web.Design.dll from the Promethus bin into your project bin.

Just an idea.

Regards,
John

I just copied it (teh design dll) to the GAC ... (the installer did not seem to do that on my machine) ...

[Dan]

I tried copying it to the (v2.0) GAC, no joy. Copying the DLL to the BIN directory of my project hasn't worked either 8-(

Should the splitter be outlined in red when added to the page in VS? 'Cos mine is.

Hi Stuart,
Indeed I was able to reproduce the problem and forwarded it to our dev team.

Well thank goodness for that! I was beginning to doubt that anybody was having my problems.

Having uninstalled and reinstalled everything, the 'design' DLL has been installed in the GAC but it still doesn't work.

Hi Stuart,
Thank you for the additional information. However, our developers will need some time to research this one before we can come up with a solution.

Hello Stuart,
:) On the contrary. We highly appreciate your feedback. However, when it comes to problems we have recognized as such, we can handle them and you can play as much as you wish with other scenarios.

Any updates yet?

[Valeri Hristov]

Hello guys,

We will need some more time to test the design mode of RadSplitter "Prometheus", that's why we decided to release the fix in the next update of RadControls "Prometheus" and not earlier. The update is expected in the middle of the next week, I hope that it will not be a major inconvenience for you to work in Source View until then.

Nah makes me feel like I'm back working on old COBOL :-)
