Questions on UI for ASP.NET AJAX Forum

We are using the Rad Menu control (ASP.NET AJAX Controls ver 2008.2 1001) in a web interface. When viewing the interface with IE7 (ver 7.0.5730.12) there is a z-index error, even though the RadMenu has been set to have a z-index lower that other page items, it appears on top. We double checked and tried multiple z-index orders to no avail.

The attached screen shot shows the problem. We are using the Superfish javascript library for a top level drop down menu and we have several RadMenu controls (and other Rad Controls) on the page as well. One of which is used for a "Getting Started" menu (illustrated in the attachement). When the top level navigation menu drops down, it appears behind the RadMenu, even though the RadMenu has a lower z-index.

The other Rad Controls i.e Tree View do not misbehave. They seem to honor their z-index.

It is most urgent that we have a immediate solution for the problem. We are less than a week away from a production delivery date for a system used by the USG with over 350K users.

Please donot bother asking for the code, it is part of a huge proprietary website with tight back-end integration, so it is not possible to do so.

A quick solution would be most appreciated.

[Solved] NumericTextbox.get_value() is returning Old Value OnBlur?

Running the August 2012 build - which is currently the latest - this seems to have been introduced in 2012-Q2

I have some code that allows for Excel style updating in a RadGrid, by sending some information through the onblur event of my RadNumbericTextbox controls. Until recently this worked great - but now .get_value() returns the old value for the Textbox.

I have confirmed that .get_textBoxValue() does give me the correct New value - BUT this will mean quite a bit or rewriting and testing on several pages for me - which I am trying to avoid.

Before I do that - is this a bug? Or am I doing something wrong now?

Protected Sub RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(sender As Object, e As GridItemEventArgs) Handles RadGrid1.ItemDataBound

If TypeOf e.Item Is GridDataItem Then

Dim item As GridDataItem = DirectCast(e.Item, GridDataItem)

Dim nActualQty As RadNumericTextBox = TryCast(item.FindControl("nActualQty"), RadNumericTextBox)

Dim nActualAmount As RadNumericTextBox = TryCast(item.FindControl("nActualAmount"), RadNumericTextBox)

' This injects a javascript function to do the automatic line calculations

nActualQty.Attributes.Add("onblur", "calculateLine('" & DataBinder.Eval(e.Item.DataItem, "Is_CPM") & "','" & DataBinder.Eval(e.Item.DataItem, "Rate") & "','" & nActualQty.ClientID & "','" & nActualAmount.ClientID & "')")

End If

End Sub

function calculateLine(cpm, rate, quantity, totalAmount) {

var q = parseFloat($find(quantity).get_value()); // This is the WRONG / OLD value

var q = parseFloat($find(quantity).get_textBoxValue()); // This is now the right value ?!

var t = $find(totalAmount);

if (cpm == 'Y') {

rate = parseFloat(rate) / 1000;

}

console.log('rate(' + rate + ') * q(' + q + ')');

t.set_value(rate * q);

}

Radscheduler: event flow

I probably miss some fundamentals.
1.On delete event the flow goes to AppointmentCreated event and then twice hit AppointmentDelete Event
On AppointmentInsert event the flow hits twice too and this create 2 records in the database

2. I show the same timeslotcontext menu on right and left mouse click. On the right mouse click

OnClientAppointmentInserting is working properly. On the left mouse click

OnClientAppointmentInserting gives me the error message right after

timeSlotClick event before timeSlotContextMenuItemClicking and OnClientAppointmentInserting
event, so , please advise how to handle this.

3. I have CSS issues in the AdvanceInsert or Edit form: all my dropdowns do not show the arrow and scrolls, Recurrence editor does not show spin images

I created 3 support tickets 658678, 659352, 659845. I am doing proof project for the Radscheduler
Thank you for your help

My attachments in the ticket 659352

No paging works, the filter or sort

I have a RadFileExplorer on mi app. I want show a different folder for each kind of use.
So, I set the viewpath dinamically. I created a mapping file Beacause the folders aren't on my app's directory.
The RadFileEplorer shows the files, but the paging doesn't works, and always show me the same files.
The Filtering and the sorting doesn't works neither.

You can see in the atached files , the pagination shows same files on the first and on the second page.

here is The mapping File, it looks well and works.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<CustomFileBrowserProvider>

<Paths>

<genericHandlerPath>FileSystemHandler.ashx</genericHandlerPath>

</Paths>

<Mappings>

<Mapping>

<PhysicalPath><![CDATA[ D:\MarceloEscobar\Descargas del Reloj\Central]]></PhysicalPath>

<VirtualPath><![CDATA[descargascentral]]></VirtualPath>

</Mapping>

</Mappings>

</CustomFileBrowserProvider>

Here is the RadFileExplore declaration

<telerik:RadAjaxPanel ID="RadAjaxPanel1" runat="server" LoadingPanelID="progress">

<telerik:RadFormDecorator ID="FormDecorator1" runat="server" Skin="Office2007" />

<asp:Label runat="server" Font-Size="Large" ID="lblEncabezado" CssClass="label" Text="Incorporar Archivos del Reloj:" />

<telerik:RadFileExplorer ID="FileExplorer1" runat="server" DisplayUpFolderItem="false" AllowPaging="true" EnableOpenFile="true" PageSize="7" EnableAsyncUpload="false" EnableCopy="false" EnableCreateNewFolder="false" Height="310px" OnClientFileOpen="OnClientFileOpen" OnClientMove="OnClientMove" Skin="Office2007" VisibleControls="Grid" Width="600px">

<Configuration SearchPatterns="*.REI" />

</telerik:RadFileExplorer>

<br />

and here is mi code.

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

If Not Page.IsPostBack Then

Dim ruta = "descargascentral"

FileExplorer1.Configuration.ContentProviderTypeName = _

GetType(CustomFileSystemProvider).AssemblyQualifiedName

Dim rutas As String() = New String() {ruta}

FileExplorer1.Grid.ClientSettings.AllowRowsDragDrop = False

FileExplorer1.Configuration.ViewPaths = rutas

FileExplorer1.Grid.ClientSettings.Scrolling.AllowScroll = True

End If

End Sub

I can't set the initialpath property because i don't know if the folder contais files or no.

thanks for your helping

update: also doesn't allow me to navigate within subfolders.

Telerik.Web.UI quiet Mode and deploy to GAC

Hi everyone,

we are deploying a solution on Windows Azure and our soultion references a lot of time (there are 10-15 different webapps, each one with a copy) Telerik.Web.UI.dll.

The problem is that our package has becoming huge (300-400MB) and uploading a new version is getting problematic. One solution we found and achived with other libraries is to create a statup task that downloads the MSI from the Azure Blob Storage and installs everything. The prerequisites for this solution are:

1. must exists a quiet mode install
2. dll must go to GAC (so apps can reference them without having a local copy in bin folder)

I downloaded the MSI file and, using the /? parameter, I found that exists a /quiet parameter that respect prerequisite 1.
After running that I see - running gacutil - that only Telerik.Web.UI.Design is put into the GAC. No way in seeing Telerik.Web.UI.

How can I accomplish this?

Bonus points for who answer to this question too: installation seems to take a lot of time (15-20 mins), it is probably because it installs everything (demo, documentation, vs extensions...). Is it possibile to install just DLLs?

Thanks!
Marco

ExpandDirection Up not working

I have the expanddirection set to "Up" and the "enablescreenboundrydetection" set to false and no matter what I do it still opens down ... and I've been somewhat unable to find documentation that tells me how to utilize the expanddirection other than stackoverflow. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9178911/forcing-radcombobox-drop-down-direction

My combo is populated utilizing allowcustomtext so I'm not sure if that makes a difference - Q2 2011
