Part of our business procedures for the day is having our users "sign in" to a location on a daily basis, as part of a People Directory application. This usually happens as the user logs into their account, but we also provide functionality for users to set their locations in advance.

Our current process of doing this is using a big SQL script that maps out the days of the month into a DataList and then lists the statuses for the user when they logged in, and allows them to edit cells to submit new ones and sign in advance.

We're in the process of re-doing this webapp and integrating it into SharePoint. My question is, what would be the best Telerik control to use for this? It seems like the RadCalendar wouldn't let me edit cells to let users add descriptions to them, and RadScheduler is way too advanced for what we need (a simple status tied to the entire day). I really don't want to go the GridView route because I'm afraid of that massive script that populates the old one.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Hi All

I have a problem where the Rad page no sits below the LH menu, and I have a gap between the tab bar and the start of the RadPage. This has only happend since upgrading to the 2010.1.411.35 build.

If you look at Capture2.png this style seems to be new and its the content: ""; that is causing the problem. If I disable the style using IE Dev toolbar the Rad page sits properly under the tab bar.

I have a unique situation. I am trying to get a field to subtract from a total based on a column in the grid and an overall total.

I am able to get this to work when the grid is first created...

here is my code:

The grid is created from a child class that is a property of the parent class using the OnNeedDataSource method. The Total amount is in the parent class.


So after getting the total I am doing my calculation after the grid is bound using data in a column of the child class.

So basically it shows the funding being deducted from the total amount for every row in the grid until the total amount left is 0.
This works great when the grid first loads, but if I hit the refresh button on the grid or try to export this to pdf, the calculation disappears.

Of course I have Ajax in the page for updating the grid etc. So I turn it off when I export to pdf like I'm supposed to, but the data still doesn't show.

The rest of the bound data does show up on refresh and on export, just this column doesn't get updated. I have stepped through the code and it the data gets created on refresh or export, but still doesn't show up when the page is rendered or exported.

Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Let me know if you need any more info.

Thanks,

Dustin

I'm trying to create a RadCalendar where everyday has both the number of the date, plus a label or a textbox, depending on whether or not the user has logged in that day. The issue I'm having, is that I'd like to style the date cells by using a DayTemplate, but I need access to the controls inside.

To make matters more difficult, I'm using .NET 3.5 (for Sharepoint), and I don't think there is a "Static" option for IDs. Currently, my gameplan is to design the cell in the DayTemplate, and then have the  OnDayRender event take the controls inside the template and modify them. Is this the correct approach? Each control gets prefixed when a DayTemplate is applied, so it makes grabbing them extremely tough.

Aside from OnDayRender (or making 7 special days that repeat weekly), is there a way to set up a generic template for each cell, one that I can programmatically get access to?

Hi,
      Can you please provide me a method to make the alternating row color of a particular column to blue color. Im using skin. How can I accomplish it in code behind.

I followed your great documentation on Export RadGrid content to Excel/Word/CSV/PDF with Ajax enabled . It works flawlessly - the export itself.

My javascript code is very close to the example code provided:


But after exporting the AJAX remains disabled. How do I re-enable AJAX after the RadGrid has been exported? Do i need to refresh the whole page or is there something like "radGrid.Re-EnableAJAX()" via Javascript?

When I load my UserControl in a regular web application AJAX works after clicking the Excel Button, however when using the userControl in SharePoint (on an Application page) Ajax doesn't work anymore, though it looks like a Postback.

So basically I have an application page, loading a user control which contains a RadGrid with Excel Export. When clicking the Excel button, AJAX is disabled just fine, but afterwards all other AJAX features (e.g. Grid filtering) don't work anymore.

PS: (I also posted this here)

Here is my resulting chart:

The issue that I have is I need the legend to reflect the same color that is in the pie chart, or it will be really hard to know what number goes with each piece of the pie.  I also would love to remove Quantity from the list. 

here is my C#
string[] ParamArgs = { "IdParam|" + HttpContext.Current.Session["Id"], "INParam|" + HttpContext.Current.Session["Current"] };
        ColorPieChart = StoreProcedureDTTable("ColorPieChart_By_Specific", ParamArgs, "ColorPieChart_By_Specific");
        ColorPieChart.ChartTitle.TextBlock.Text = "Quantity by Color";
        ColorPieChart.Legend.Appearance.Position.AlignedPosition = Telerik.Charting.Styles.AlignedPositions.TopRight;
        ColorPieChart.DataSource = ColorPieChart;
        ColorPieChart.PlotArea.XAxis.AxisLabel.Visible = true;
        ColorPieChart.PlotArea.YAxis.AxisLabel.Visible = true;
        
        foreach (DataRow dtRow in ColorPieChart.Rows)
        {
            LabelItem item = new LabelItem();
            item.Name = dtRow["Color"].ToString();
            item.TextBlock.Text = dtRow["Color"].ToString();
            ColorPieChart.Legend.Items.Add(item);

        }
        ColorPieChart.AutoLayout = true;
        ColorPieChart.DataBind();

Here is my aspx:

Any help is appreciated!

The date entered into the RadDatePicker in format of 04/14/2012 and when you click on the go button the displayed date changes to 2012-04-14- it then goes back to 04/14/2012.  This causes a flicker issue in the field on the go click.  Is there a setting to stop this from happening?
