Advanced Dashboard with Rad Windows

[Arindam]

Well before I put up the questions, thanks a lot to telerik teams and members, you people rocks..

I am having 2 problems

1. I need to make interactions between my RadWindows.
Suppose I am having a treeview and now I drag and dropped 3 or 4 radwindows in my div or zone. Now whenever I change some thing in one of my window then other radwindows should reflect the changes as per 1st one. Is that any possible way to track those things?

2. Track Reload event in RadWindows.
I need to track the Reload event of RadWindow. what exactly I want to achive is this. Suppose I dragged and dropped radwindow in my zone, I given the link as www.telerik.com, suppose I click reload button in top right corner is their any chances that I redirect the page to www.google.com i.e at load of radwindow (i.e. whenever I am dragging and dropping the radwindows ) it should open www.telerik.com but after hitting reload button it will redirect to www.google.com. Is this possible to do?

Reply awaited.
Thanks in advance!!!

Hi Arindam,

As I noted in my previous reply  you could restrict the movement of RadWindow by using the RestrictionZone feature. I am not quite sure however, that RadWindow is suitable for your scenario. Note that RadWindow is based on an IFRAME and behaves just like one. Like the IFRAME and the standard browser's popup (window.open()), RadWindow is simply a container that displays a content page, different from the parent one. In such environment, the communication between the parent and the content is done on the client with JavaScript.

This being said, you could check the RadDock control, which might be more appropriate for scenarios like yours. If you insist on using RadWindow, I suggest to implement the desired functionality by using a standard IFRAME or a browser's popup. Once you have your logic working as expected, send us the runnable project and we will rework it for you so it uses RadWindow.

Hi Shinu -

Thanks for your reply. It help me somewhat but got stuck in javascript:-

<script type="text/javascript">
        function oCCWindow(sender, eventArgs)  
        {  
            window.alert("1");
            alert("Window with ID " + sender.get_id() + ". Command is " + eventArgs.get_commandName());   
        }
         
        function openDashboards(sender, eventArgs)
        {
                //get the clicked node
                var title = eventArgs.get_node(sender, eventArgs).get_text();
                var link = eventArgs.get_node(sender, eventArgs).get_value();
                var oWnd = radopen(link,null);
                oWnd.OnClientCommand = 'oCCWindow';
                oWnd.set_title(title);
                
        }
        </script>

So when I am calling openDashboards from javascript oCCWindow function is not getting invoked. Now if you say how I am calling openDashboards, then its basically drag and drop event of treeview, OnClientNodeDragging I am calling openDashboards function, so when I am clicking the Refresh event of Radwindow I should get the alert message, could you please tell me where I am going wrong?
