RadSpinEditor - Removing Up & Down Buttons

[Bradley Lane]

Hi,

Is it possible to remove the up and down buttons from RadSpinEditor?
I would like to use it as a kind of Numeric TextBox with built in validation and range checking.

Thanks,
Brad

Thanks Nikolay,

This is a good solution and suits my needs!

What are the chances of getting this functionality as property of RadSpinEditor in a future release?

Thanks,
Brad

Hi Bradley Lane,

A property to hide the buttons is a good feature to add, indeed. It will be implemented in our next service pack.

I have updated your Telerik points for the suggestion. If you have additional questions, feel free to contact me.

Kind regards,

Hi Helmy,

Thank you for writing.

For our small editors we use the standard TextBox control for the textbox part. In order to use the KeyDown event of RadSpinEditor, please subscribe to the KeyDown event of its TextBoxItem:

public Form1()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    this.radSpinEditor1.SpinElement.TextBoxItem.KeyDown += new KeyEventHandler(TextBoxItem_KeyDown);
}

void TextBoxItem_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
{
    throw new NotImplementedException();
}

We will consider improving the API of RadSpinEditor allowing you to directly work with the KeyDown event of the control.

I hope this helps.

Best wishes,
Nikolay
