I have a fairly sophisticated grid with 22 visible columns. The data source is a collection derived from List<T>. There are more columns in the records than displayed. The grid allows for grouping, filtering, tri-mode multi-column sorting, and editing (no paging). The display of the grid changes based on flags which are re-evaluated at each Ajax postback.

So based on that, is it clear which Excel export format to use? : HTML, SpreadsheetML, or BIFF

I don't understand exactly how RadGrid goes about generating a spreadsheet document. In RadGrid_ItemCommand, I check as follows:


What do I do with that isExcelExport information now that I know what the user wants? The code looks like it goes through the standard event cycle, but generates different format output rather than building the web form with related controls. Is that accurate? Do I need to populate the following in ItemCreated or ItemDataBound?


And do I need to do something to wrap up in RadGrid_PreRender or elsewhere?

I'm familiar with SpreadsheetML, and I develop Excel Addins, so I'm familiar with the internals, but I'd prefer to let the RadGrid do as much for us as possible. For example, can Excel headers and other styling be inherited from the grid?

I just need to know how much control I need to exercise over the creation process of the workbook, worksheet, and individual rows, columns, and cells. I don't see this spelled out anywhere as to what needs to be done or where for each output type.

And can we control the workbook headers, setting Author and other properties which are available to both ML and binary files?

Thanks!!

When I use GradientFillStyle.Center the Pie chart is not correctly rendered.

1. The red and yellow slice are not usually not completely filled in.
2. Sometime the with of the border between the yellow and red slice is extremely thick.

However there are no rendering issues if I use any of the other fill sytles.   I've attached screen shots to this thread to illustrate the difference in the chart's when GradientFillStyle.Center is used and when it's not.

I am trying to use grouping to one of the RadGrid where all the columns are autogenerated
 
i applied the code.
 

ShowGroupPanel="True" (RadGrid attribute)

and

<ClientSettings AllowDragToGroup="True" >
 
</ClientSettings>
 
But when ever I am dragging one column to the group panel ,
 getting this
 
Error: Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerServerErrorException: Unable to cast object of type 'Telerik.Web.UI.GridGroupSplitterColumn' to type 'Telerik.Web.UI.GridBoundColumn'.

 
Please Help

Is this possible without javascript / radtooltipmanager? We would like to have things like "<strong>Tool Tip</strong> Text" display for items in a radmenu. The same text is loaded as a tooltip for text (links) to be highlighted in a literal on the page, and is tooltipified using a RadToolTipManager. In the main text, the HTML display is fine for the tooltip, but in the menu item, it all displays as plain text. The tooltipmanager has no Target Controls, just trying to have everything on the page present the same way but the menu items don't seem to be picked up.

Menu item text and tool tip text are both loaded from a SQL data source depending on other page selections, not hard coded into the radmenu control. It appears a blank tool tip is trying to come from the tooltipmanager on each radmenu item, but the non-tooltipified tool tip pops up with no skin formatting.

I have also tried a separate RadToolTip control just for the RadMenu control but no luck. Is there a TargetControlID such as MyMenu_Items that I should be using?

Thanks

Hi,

I'm trying to insert/update values in an XML file using XMLDataSource and RadGrid. Below is my code :

aspx

aspx.vb
I'm encountering 2 issues :
1. Column 5 (field_name), which is a template column that uses RadComboBox for editing and is bound to another data source for fetching values, is not extracted into the Hashtable.
2. Values in the hashtable are not in ordered in the sequence of RadGrid columns.

Please suggest the solutions for these (Issue 1 is higher priority)

Thanks,
Nishant

Hi,
I am using a grid to display data, it dynamically creating GridBoundColumn. I use System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlEncode to encode the text, and when retrieving the data i use System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlDecode to decode the data and then rebind to grid. When displaying the data in grid, it render the html. how can i display the data as text.

thanks in advance

Hi,
I need to modify the item texts of a radgrid's FilterMenu ( for example changing "Order by", "Contains" and "Does not contain" to something else)

My attempted solution is to add a RadMenuEventHandler  to the FilterMenu.ItemCreated event, so that when a filtermenu item is created, my method FilterMenu_ItemCreated will fire and replace the necessary texts.

However the FilterMenu_ItemCreated  method never fires. And I'm not sure why

 I've have previously been successful when using the same approach for modifying texts inthe HeaderContextMenu. I just added an event handler for the ItemCreatedEvent (like this: grid.HeaderContextMenu.ItemCreated += new RadMenuEventHandler(HeaderContextMenu_ItemCreated); ) and that worked perfectly fine. 

So I'm confused why the same approach doesn't work for the FilterMenu

Below is some code:
----------------------


This is basically how the grid is set up. The event handler is added on the last line

A simplified version of the method which should fire during the ItemCreated event.

Hello dear telerik-team,

I have a problem with my NestedViewTemplate grids.

1) is it possible to select own parent row by code, if a row in a subgrid gets selected (OnRowSelected event of the subgrid)? If yes, how?
2) How to deselect all rows in all opened subgrids and select only the one which has been currently clicked (including point 1).
3) How can a subgrid access values of its own parent row?

Everthing must work client side, without any access to the server.

Is it possible?

Would like some information about it, anything I found to this topic in the form, doesnt match my needs.

Thanks a lot!

I am trying to allow my web application to support multiple file selection/uploads but cannot figure it out. Let me get into more detail, I am writing an application for real estate management and need to be able to upload hundreds of files at once. We were going to do this with Microsoft SQL Server Filestream and RADAsyncUpload. We have some additional fields that need to be filled for the photos also. We are writing this in Visual Basic and any help is appreciated.


Thank you,
Kris
