RadTileView and RadBook item dragging error

[Adam]

Hi, I am having an issue where if I add a RadBook as a Content template to a RadTileView, it throws an exception:

An unhandled exception of type 'System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException' occurred in PresentationCore.dll

Additional information: The parameter value must be greater than zero.

 This doesn't always happen but will if you move enough of them around.  If I take out the book control it works fine. Any Ideas?

Hi Adam,

Thank you for the provided information which help us to reproduce the issue. We have logged that issue in our system and you can track its progress in our feedback portal. As a workaround, you can set the Width  property of the RadBook control.

<telerik:RadBook Width="200" />

This did not solve the issue. Any other ideas?

Hi Adam,

After further testing, our team found a possible approach that could be a solution for your case. Basically, you can bind the Width of the RadBook to the ActualWidth of the RadTileViewItem which wraps the book. 
Check the code snippet below:

<telerik:RadTileViewItem Header="Parent TileViewItem">    
     <telerik:RadBook Padding="0 0 20 0"
                      Width="{Binding ActualWidth,RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType=telerik:RadTileViewItem}}">                                         

In addition, you can use Padding property so you can arrange the RadBook in the RadTileViewItems content.

Please, give this approach a try and let me know if this works for you.

Awesome job Dinko! I had to use some converters to make sure it would fit inside the tile as there are other controls in there but after that it worked perfectly.
