Major Issue in UserControls/NamingContainers

Hello,

I am using the latest release. It seems, that ContextMenu and ToolTip in NamingContainers are not working as they should, when a control is used several times on a page.

I have the following setup:
UserControls with ContextMenu and ToolTip in it. Both are assinged to other TargetControls (Panels) using the controls ID.

This UserControl is used 1 to many times on a page (portal page using RadDock).

Both, the ContextMenu and Tooltip are only shown in ONE UserControl. Not in the others placed on the page. The ONE is that, which is first added to the page.

This setup worked with the common RadMenu used as ContextMenu and I with older versions of Prometheus.

Can you help with this issue?

Thanks,
Rainer

ComboBox with code behind template no longer works

Hi,

I am going through my code one Telerik control at a time updating them to the Prometheus version and have stumbled across an issue with the new RadComboBox which I cannot fix.

My combobox is loaded with dynamic data from a SQL database and each item consists of an image followed by a string of text. I had set up a template for this and assigned it programmatically. This worked perfectly well with the regualar RadComboBox. Having upgraded to the Prometheus version, I get no images and no text on the combobox items, and having debugged the template, the code never enters the databound control functions listed below (it does enter InstantiateIn).

Can anyone help please as I have checked all the help and this does not seem to have changed between versions?

Thanks in advance.

    
            EntityTypeCombo.ItemTemplate = new ComboBoxHandler.EntityTypeTemplate();

    
            public class EntityTypeTemplate : ITemplate  
        
            {  
        
                public void InstantiateIn(Control container)  
        
                {  
        
                    Image image1 = new Image();  
        
                    image1.DataBinding += new EventHandler(image1_DataBinding);  
        
                    Label label1 = new Label();  
        
                    label1.ID = "ItemLabel";  
        
                    label1.DataBinding += new EventHandler(label1_DataBinding);  
        
                    container.Controls.Add(image1);  
        
                    container.Controls.Add(label1);  
        
                }

                    Image target = (Image)sender;  
        
                    RadComboBoxItem item = (RadComboBoxItem)target.BindingContainer;  
        
                    string itemText = (string)DataBinder.Eval(item, "Value");  
        
                    target.ImageUrl = "images\\" + itemText + ".gif";  
        
                }

                    Label target = (Label)sender;  
        
                    RadComboBoxItem item = (RadComboBoxItem)target.BindingContainer;  
        
                    string itemText = " " + (string)DataBinder.Eval(item, "Text");  
        
                    target.Text = itemText;

Viewstate Compression

One of the websites I am working on uses viewstate compression, in doing so it saves the viewstate into a non standard hidden field which does not appear to be picked up by Telerik Ajax on a post back.

Is there some way to define what hidden field is used to store your viewstate in?

Telerik Window Content

Is there a way to define the content on the source aspx page, similar to how you would do it with the ajax control toolkit and a panel? I would like to not have to create new pages for all of the windows I would like to use.

thanks

[Solved] Portal Site and RadControl within a UserControl

Hello Community,

I'm working on a portal site project based on MyPortal demo.
Within a user control, I have a "Prometheus" RadScheduler. When I add a RadDock with this user control, the Scheduler is not rendered properly since its CSS files have not been loaded at first and are not loaded dynamicaly during the Ajax request.

My question is how to have the CSS files loaded?
Since I dynamicaly load the user control within a dock which in turn is dynamicaly loaded within an UpdatePanel, is it possible (and if yes how) to notify ASP.NET or ASJAX ASP.NET to have the browser loading the CSS files.

I know that a solution would be to first register link to all CSS files, but I think it would force the browser to load many CSS files that wouldn't be needed after all.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

BR, Laurent

RadDockZone with z-index = -1

I have a static RadDockZone, and I add RadDocks dynamically. Everything works fine. But for my page layout I needed to add some styles to the RadDockZone: position it absolutely and add z-index: -1 (so that some other controls can be shown above the zone). While positioning doesn't seem to affect RadDockZone, setting z-index: -1 makes it impossible to close any RadDock inside (I click the x and nothing happens, in both IE and FF).

My markup:

<telerik:RadDockZone runat="server" ID="RadDockZone1" style="position: absolute; top: 50px; left: 5px; z-index: -1;" Width="980px" Height="800px" Orientation="Horizontal">

</telerik:RadDockZone>

Is it a bug or should I add positioning styles to the RadDockZone in some other way?

[Solved] Skin migration mapping document/tool

Does anyone know if there is a document/tool for helping in the conversion of the skins to Prometheus? CSS is not my strong point and it looks like the new skins are a lot more complicated than the old ones. I am trying to do the combobox right now. It would be very nice to have a document that maps the old css classes to the new ones. Even better would be images with arrows comparing the 2 different controls.

Thanks....

Jason
