Hi all,

I came across the following problem: we're using multiple drop-down lists on a single page; some of them are multicolumn boxes. We tricked ourselves, becuase everyone in the developement team is using XP's classic theme; so we modified the theme to have images like the classic windows color schemes.
but: one of our beta-testers pointed out, that the gui is inconsistent, as he's using classic XP theme; and the blue drop-down boxes interfere with our classic drop-down arrows.
Do you know any way to force the control to use system presets, or the only way is to use some dhtml-hacking to replace the drop-down arrows sitewide to use our theme?
Thank you very much in advance, I'll appreciate any kind of comment wth this!

How to validate a slider

I have a survey page. basically there are like 40 questions, each question can be answered with a numerical value of 1 through 6. We are using sliders to let people choose the answer to each question.

I would like to use something like an <asp:RequiredFieldValidator /> to make sure the user chooses a value between 1 and 6.

What we have actually done is set the minvalue on the slider to 0 and max value to 6, but we are considering a selection of 0 as a question that hasn't been answered. So basically I need to use a validation control to validate that the slider value is not 0. I need it to work like the builtin validation controls work, with a validation group, and client and server side validation support.

I know that I could set the slider range to 1 - 6, and then I could guarantee that I won't get any 0 values. But that is not an acceptable solution, we don't want people to select the default value, we want them to explicilty choose a value.

Is there anyway to do what I am asking for? The slider doesnt even have the standard ValidationGroup property.

Showing Group header fields outside the Grid Control

Hi,

I want to use radgrid grouping in a way that grouping is not displayed in the rad grid but i want to show the grouping information (eg. group name and group count) in a seperate rad panel bar control. Each panel bar item would show one group item with group count in brackets. When I click on the rad panel bar item filtering is performed on the grid and panel bar items are updated as well. I am not sure if this can be done easily with rad grid groupby expression. Please Advise.

Any help will be greatly appreciated,

Regards,

Sayyed

overall loading time of telerik controls

I created a sample project and dynamically loaded 50 text boxes, 1 menu with 20 odd items, 10 or so drop downs in a page.

On a client machine with 128 MB RAM and IE 6 - this page takes > 4 seconds to display properly. It takes 2 seconds to display everything and then > 2 seconds to run all telerik javascripts for the controls that are loaded.

This seems very slow and I hope there is some approach to make this quicker. Specially after the page displays, the time Javascripts take to load all controls is too much. For that much time, user can see the page but cannot do anything. If textboxes have Font-Size or Font-Bold etc set, then these javascripts apply these properties after displaying them with the default skin.

Let me know if there is a way to load these controls faster in a page.
Thanks,
Piyush

Need help configuring RAD Editor in MOSS 2007

Hi,
I am using the latest version of Telerik RAD Editor. It's working fine but I need to customize the following things:

First I want to change the appearance by modifying the width and toolbar sets. I tried to do this by altering TelerikRadEditorHtml.ascx and TelerikRadEditorText.ascx.

Apparently, Telerik provides two different controls for working with HTML field and List field. For the RadHtmlField inside TelerikRadEditorHtml.ascx, I added the property ToolsFile and Width, and it behaved exactly like I wanted.

I tried to add the same properties to RadTextField inside TelerikRadEditorText.ascx, but it ignored the properties. I observed there is a FontSizeCoef property, but I wanted to set exactly the width and height. Also the ToolsFile property I couldn't make it work.

Is there anyway to work around this?

JavaScript Error with AutoGenerateColumns="False" and UseStaticHeaders="True"

I’ve found that you get the following JavaScript error when you have AutoGenerateColumns set to false and UseStaticHeaders set to true for a RadGrid:

Sys.InvalidOperationException: A control is already associated with the element.

I guess this is the result of telling the RadGrid to use static headers twice (in some form or another), but it was somewhat difficult to figure out what exactly was causing the JavaScript error (we found the answer by removing different attributes until we found the right one).

Here is the basic RadGrid definition (just for reference):

    
            <telerik:RadGrid runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False">              
        
                <ClientSettings> 
        
                    <Scrolling UseStaticHeaders="True" /> 
        
                </ClientSettings> 
        
                .  
        
                .  
        
                .  
        
            </telerik:RadGrid>

Combo box and the enter key in IE

For some reason when you select an item from the combo box drop down and then press enter nothing happens. It only behaves like this in IE. In FF3 it works as expected.

I have the button set as the default button too with:

    
            <asp:Panel ID="pnlSearch" DefaultButton="btnSearch" runat="server"> 
        
                        <label>I'm looking for:</label> 
        
                        <noscript> 
        
                            <asp:TextBox ID="txtSearchTermNoScript" runat="server" CssClass="textInput" /> 
        
                        </noscript> 
        
                        <telerik:RadComboBox ID="txtSearchTerm" runat="server" AllowCustomText="true" 
        
                            MarkFirstMatch="false" EnableLoadOnDemand="true" Width="280px" Height="168px"  
        
                            onitemsrequested="txtSearchTerm_ItemsRequested" onload="txtSearchTerm_Load" 
        
                            OnClientItemsRequested="OnClientItemsRequested" EnableEmbeddedSkins="false" Skin="Cks"> 
        
                            <CollapseAnimation Duration="200" Type="OutQuint" /> 
        
                        </telerik:RadComboBox> 
        
                        <label>in&hellip;</label> 
        
                        <asp:DropDownList ID="ddlSearchCollection" runat="server" CssClass="dropDownBox" /> 
        
                        <asp:ImageButton ID="btnSearch" runat="server" CssClass="searchButton" OnClick="btnSearch_Click" /> 
        
            </asp:Panel>

Am I missing a property on the combo box?

Thanks,

Michael

Contents not expanded under FF and Safari on Windows

When I click on a radcombo in IE, everything seems to be working correctly, as soon as I move to FF or Safari, then all I can see is one item at a time in the dropdown.

When I click on the dropdown to expand it, I get a line to left of it in both FF and safari and not exactly sure why this is happening.

Any ideas?
