Problem with FocusManger on radwindow

[Marcin]

I'm using rad window as window:

<telerik:RadWindow ResizeMode="CanResizeWithGrip">
    <AdornerDecorator>
        <Grid FocusManager.FocusedElement="{Binding ElementName=txtName}"> ...

Having focus manager is causing exception below:

System.NullReferenceException
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

It happens only on designer (thankfully) but is a bit anoying. Once I remove focus manager there is no error.

Hello Marcin,

We looked into the issue and noticed that it is a bug in the control that indeed shows only in design time. We logged the issue in our Public Issue Tracker System, you can vote for and track its status here.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, I updated your Telerik points for the report.

Kind regards,
Vladi
