Outlookbar items swing when selected

[Harri]

Hi

I had 2013.1.220.40 versio in use and all worked well. Now I had to update to 2013.3.1316.40 for new properties in RadGridView. After this update RadOutlookBar items started to swing side to side when selected item is changed. See attached files to see the situation.

Hello Harri,

We tried to reproduce the reported issue with the 2013.3.1316.40 binaries, but the RadOutlookBar worked as expected. This is why it would greatly help us if you could send us an isolated sample project that reproduces the issue?

I am looking forward to your replay.

Hi

Our application is quite big so I started to remove stuff away (isolated sample) so there is only needed things with it. Unfortunatelly after removing stuff I noticed that problem was away. Then I got back to original solution and projects and started disable stuff little by little trying to find out that where this problem disappear. After few try and error I figured out that problem is with one RadOutlookBarItem. And after more testin I noticed that it has something to do with .Content context.

In that item RadOutlookBarItem.Content contained RadTreeListView which columns are wider than RadOutlookBar itself (see picture OutlookBarTrend_PROBLEM). When columns are resized inside outlookbar width (see pickture OutlookBarTrend_WORKING)  then outlookbar items stop to swing. But then I noticed that in other .Content contains also RadTreeListView and when it is wider than outlookbar it won't do that problem (see picture OutlookBarUserManager). So this is quite odd problem and I'm not sure how I could parse isolated sample for you.

Hello Harri,

Is it possible for you to test your application with our latest binaries from Q1 2014 and let us know if the issue still persists ?

On the other hand, I am not sure that I understand where is the problem in the new pictures. I attached a sample project which can serve as a base for our discussion.In it I was unable to detect an issue similar to the one you describe. Could you please try to modify the project so that the issue is reproducible? This would be highly appreciated and will help us in advising you more precisely.

Hi

I updated to Q1 2014 but it still works as before. So no help from that operation.

And little more about that problem and how it works. In both outlookbar items (trend and usermanager) contains RadTreelistView in outlookbar content.

When item Trend content RadTreeListView is wider than outlookbar (see columns (Name, Description, Unit) and slide bar differences in pictures OutlookBarTrend_PROBLEM.png and OutlookBarTrend_WORKING.png) those outlookbar items swing side to side when selection is changed as shown in first message pictures (OutlookbarSelectedChange_problem1.png and OutlookbarSelectedChange_problem2.png). But when columns are shrink to fit inside of outlookbar width then items won't swing side to side.

In that other item UserManager uses also RadTreeListView in it content. But everything works normally even when that RadTreeListView colums are wider than outlookbar itself (see columns and slide bar in picture OutlookBarUserManager.png).

I will try to modify project to you where this issue is but currently we have quite lot of work so I have to get back to this in some point later.

Hello Harri,

We are looking forward to your reply with the isolated project.
Meanwhile if you would like us to further investigate the case on our side, could you please provide us with additional information:

• definitions for the RadOutlookBar, RadOutlookBarItems, both RadTreeListViews and their corresponding events.
• If possible a screencast demonstrating the steps you follow to reproduce the issue.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
