Hi All

I am calling the insert form of radgrid using the fireCommand from javascript that is triggered by and external button,
However seeing as i am using a custom command name it will not trigger unless the grid has some data,
I tried changing the command name to InitInsert....however this does not trigger the grids Item_command server side for some reason!

I need to trigger the Item_command as i need to control the event.

Could someone tell me why this is not triggering using InitInsert and it triggered using my custom command?

Many Thanks

Regards

Cush

insert with GridTemplateColumn

Hi,
I'm using the "Client edit with batch server update" example to make my own grid. I have a question that I haven't found the solution. How can I insert a new row using gridTemplatecolumns? I have add a command Item Template linkButton element for the inserting, but when I click on it, it is only appearing for inserting a column that is a bound one. How can I do for Inserting items using template columns?
I'm trying to work in server-side all I can.
Thanks,
Jon

Set legend style to reflect penstyle of series

Hi Telerik
I have a colour scheme for my line chart - however this colour scheme does not translate very well when printed in black and white. One option is to set one of my lines to use a penstyle other than solid and this works quite well. However the legend doesn't reflect this and having printed the chart in b&w, the user is no wiser as to which chart series is which - they can see one is dotted (or dashdot etc), they just can't tell which one from the legend.

Is there a way to style the legend to reflect this? By default the legend items are shown as squares, so this would need to change to a line or something in order for the penstyle to be visible.

thanks
--Mike

tooltip changes its position

Hello,

I was using a tooltip for radgrid. On mouse over on radgrid row tooltip pops up.

After loading the dynamic data in tooltip, it changes its position and moves up. Becase of this this tooltip points to some other row in radgrid which is misleading.

note:- its ovserved posiotion change of tooltip happens when tooltip is at end of the web page below.

I would like the tooltip should not move or though it move it should point to the exact row of radgrid.

Can you please suggest me the best way to achieve this ?

tooltip code:

<telerik:RadToolTipManager ID="ttm_CSMD_Backlog_By_Status_FL" runat="server" EnableShadow="true"

Animation="Fade" OnAjaxUpdate="OnAjaxUpdate" HideEvent="ManualClose" AnimationDuration="2000"

Position="BottomRight" RelativeTo="Element" OffsetY="0" OnClientResponseEnd="OnClientResponseEnd">

</telerik:RadToolTipManager>

please see attached images for more clarity.

RadListView - 2 DataPagers

Hi,

I have a list of items and have placed 2 DataPagers on the page.

One sits above the list and one below.

If I click on one, everything works as it should and I get the next page of results.

Unfortunately though, the DataPagers then get out of sync (ie. One will have the new page number set but the other one still displays the old page index)

Is there anyway I can keep them in sync?

Thanks

How to reference parent data items in EditItemTemplate

Hi,

I'm trying to use a grid to display Facilities and Contacts. A 'Facility' would be something like a factory, office or location and there is a parent/child relationship between the two.

In my DetailTable, I would like the user to be able to add a new contact. When the 'Add new record' link is clicked, I would like to fill a combobox with contacts that are NOT currently assigned to the Facility.

I'm using the following thread as a guide.

http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-ajax/grid/fill-datasource-in-radcombobox-within-edititemtemplate-of-radgrid.aspx

I'm trying to use the ItemDataBound event to fill my combobox. The problem that I have is that I'm unable to find a reference to the FacilityID in this method. I've tried using insertItem.ParentItem but this is null when I try and read it in debug mode.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Tim

Big issues for me

You're embedding the icons as <img> tags with css clipping right? :/

So here's my list of problems

Nowhere in the markup do you define the CSS class itself of the icon type, so I am totally unable to style\sprite this myself

<span class="rnTitleBarIcon"><img alt="" src="/aspnet-ajax-beta/WebResource.axd?d=ggAcMRKG-k0cBWcn06l1bQ0-EcIDhDWZb12Lq-SE6ng5d2az3I1O-XNTxq83E4Fw_GW3CVlrOrhvkwJP1A2axcD5RKUIsMrmmQnYKcnjKzr3eF5qacTEvdl_o48AR9i_Z0Ff_wWqxIpI4gdVXoLrV2ESf8Ui7_izFZdbfQ0qtns1&t=634450297140000000">
In my custom skin I would much rather not have <img> tags, but instead background image positioning on the container if possible...

For release can you please

Mark the icon types in the iconcontainer elements so I can style accordingly...or at all. So like "rnTitleBarIcon delete", "rnTitleBarIcon info"
Give me a property to just not render the img tags. One of the other RadControls (RadToolbar?) has a property to enable image sprites or something like that...enablebuttonsprites? Maybe replace it with an empty div or something I can play with without the obnoxious webresource.axd markup...not your fault on that :).

The baked in icons are nice, but are way outside our theme\style guidelines and they shouldn't be forced on us...just lacks the telerik polish. Although I will greatly compliment whoever made the call to make it DIV based over tablebased (like the RadWindow)...thank you SO MUCH for that foresight.

Weird rending on load

Hi,

I've noticed an odd problem with the rendering of the radeditor on one of my pages - I've got a set of controls (one of which is a radeditor) in a rad tool tip control, the tool tip control is in a asp update panel.

When the control first loads the rendering of the rad editor is screwed up (see onload.jpg attached), but if you resize the radeditor (using the handle down the bottom right) it corrects the layout (see after resize.jpg).

Any ideas what might cause this?

Unwanted Paragraphs

Hi,

We've some problems with the RadEditor, with custom scripts we've fixed almost all problems. But one problem we cann't fix, it is a known behavior problem. With dirty HTML the RadEditor will copy new paragraph on each switch between Design and HTML modes, with result a large white gap under texts:

Some dirty HTML here
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

I know it's important to have clean HTML script but we have about 200 members which 95% don't have some HTML knowledge.

We've tried the following fixes:

- Disable ConvertToXHTML filter
- NewLineMode to Br
- ContentAreaMode to both modes

This problem don't happens with all of our members, only ones with dirty HTML templates.

I hope you have some ideas.

Very much thanks!

Set the enableembeddedscripts property to false for entire page

Hi Team,
I can see a way for each of the individual control, we can set the enableembeddedscripts to false. Then we can register the corresponding .js file using script manager. I just want to understand is there a way by which we can set the enableembeddedscripts=false for all the controls in a page instead of giving at the control level.

Regards,
Prasad
