I'm using the RadGrid's Insert/Update capabilities in an application where users can create/update/delete records. Generally there are many pages of records for the users to work with and the data is sortable. When a user adds a new record they often lose the context of where they are in the data with the default behavior of the RadGrid.

Let's say the users is on page 10 of 20 and they create a new record with a sort value like "AAAA". After the record is inserted the user is moved from page 10 and placed on page 20. The new record is probably going to be displayed on page 1. So the user ends up in a different place in the grid than they were previously and don't see the record they just created. I think a better interaction would be for the grid to be auto paged to the page containing the new record with the new record highlighted in some way so the user understand the new record was created properly.

I have several pages in my current application that use asp.net GridView and Details View controls together to perform the same sort of Insert/Update operations. These pages also have some messy custom code to figure out where new/updated record will appear in the grid and page the grid automatically to display them. I'm going to use this same technique with the RadGrid to get the behavior I want.

I'm wondering if I'm missing an easy way to get the RadGrid to behave how I want. Or, perhaps there's a better user interaction for working with sorted data and the RadGrid control that's recommended.

Hello,
I am trying to insert a record into my radgrid. however when i click on add new record the status bar at the bottom changes to loading... and then it doesnt do anything.
I have my edit records working perfectly, it loads my template inside the grid and updates just fine.
I notice that once i hit insert record the radgrid_needdatasource event is called which it should just like when i select edit record.

any ideas on what to look for?
thanks

I have 2 collapsible panels. each one contains a RadTreeView.

First, we see one collapsible panel. We can collapse/expand. We can see/hide the RadEditor1. (Everything works fine)

But when the second collapsible panel appears (and the second RadTreeView), If I try to collapse/expand the first collapsible panel, it doesn't work. The first radEditor doesn't want to be visible.

Do you have already encountered this kind of error ?

Thank you,  

Hi Telerik,
I'm a developer using a licensed Telerik product (2008 Q1 ASP.Net AJAX), and I have a problem with ComboBox.
The same code, the same application, the same server, IE 7 + 8 and FireFox 2 is running OK, but with FireFox 3, we can't choose or drop the Combobox.
When enabling FireBug, it appears: "this.dateTimeFormat is undefined".

Is there any methods to solve this? Please help me.

I've created a custom composite control that includes a file manager that are apart of the RadEditor following this thread as a starting point.  Everything is working well except for the uploading of files. 

The composite control is essentially a web-based file manager among other things and will be used for uploading a variety of file types, including images, documents of several types, flash files, etc.  By setting the SearchPatterns property to *.*, I am able to see and select a file of any extension, but I am unable to upload any file.

If I set the SearchPattern to *.swf for a flash animation, I can upload that file type.  Not specifying any SearchPattern goes with the default list of extensions which doesn't help much as I need to allow any file extension.

Am I missing a supersecret property somewhere?

Is there a comparable proxy control for RadScriptManager? I have a RadScriptManager in a page that dynamically loads usercontrols an in one of these I need to add a "services" tag. Below is how it would be done using the ASP:ScriptManager. Is there a way to do this using RadScriptManager?

<asp:ScriptManagerProxy ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server">
 <Services>
    <asp:ServiceReference Path="~/Service.asmx" />
  </Services>
</asp:ScriptManagerProxy>


Thanks,
Dave

Hi,

I have put a checkbox in a rad grid and enabled multi select (and scroll bars) which works fine the problem I am having is if the user licks a row instead of the checkbox it removes all the checked items and just highlights the row they selected.  It also looses the scroll bars and extends the grid across the page

any ideas?
 

hi there,

When I try to create my chart using the designer, I get a lot of "Skin" options. What I need to do, is to display this list of "Skins" in a drop-down box in my application so users can dynamically modify the skin on the chart.

How can I get this list of skins?

cheers!

Is there any way to open the NavigateUrl in a browser window?
Thanks.

We purchased the entire RADControls package.

I am trying to use the OnItemDataBound event on a RadMenu, but the second parameter (Telerik.WebControls.RadMenuEventArgs e) isn't recognized.  I searched online and it appears I need the RadMenu.dll so that I can add a using Telerik.WebControls statement to the top of my code file.  I can not find the RadMenu.dll anywhere.  The only dlls I can find are the following:

• Telerik.Charting.dll
• Telerik.Web.UI.dll

What am I missing?

Thanks!

Michael
