Set Behaviors client side

[Michael Hanson]

I am creating my windows in client side code.  I have found the set_Behaviors method on the RadWindow via debugging and tried to call this with a string corresponding to the Enum used server side but nothing happens.

How do I set my windows in script so that they only show the Close button?

Hi Michael Hanson,

You cannot set the behavior of a RadWindow with Javascript - you will need to declare a RadWindow in your page with the appropriate values in the Behaviors enum and open this RadWindow.

Thanks for the response.

I tried what you propose and kept getting javascript errors, which was what led me to find the  set_Behaviors method.

I have it covered for now by relying on the default behaviors of the WindowManager but I will try again and let you know what the error is.

Hello again Mike,

First of all I would like to apologize for my mistake - I was under the impression that we are talking about the ASP.NET version of the control, not the Prometheus one. I apologize for the misunderstanding.

You can set the behaviors property on the client in the "Prometheus" version by using the following syntax:

<form id="form1" runat="server">

    <script type="text/javascript">
    function openAndSet()
    {
        var oWnd = radopen("http://www.google.com", "RadWindow1");
        oWnd.set_Behaviors(Telerik.Web.UI.WindowBehaviors.Move + Telerik.Web.UI.WindowBehaviors.Resize +Telerik.Web.UI.WindowBehaviors.Close);
        oWnd.center();
    }

    </script>

    <asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">
    </asp:ScriptManager>
    <telerik:RadWindowManager ID="RadWindowManager1" runat="server">
    </telerik:RadWindowManager>
    <button onclick="openAndSet(); return false;">
        Open RadWindow</button>
</form>

Note the center() method that is called after that. This is because when a RadWindow is initially shown the width of the titlebar's text is calculated with the titlebar buttons included. After that, when you remove the buttons by using the set_Behaviors() method, the size should be re-calculated again - otherwise the buttons will not be positioned correctly. To do this, the easiest way would be to center / move / resize the dialog.

I hope this helps. Once again - sorry for the misunderstanding.

Excellent, that is exactly what I needed to know.

Thanks very much.
