Questions on UI for ASP.NET AJAX Forum

Hi

I have a somewhat complicated problem with z-ordering some of my UI elements.

The Site Master part of my page contains a RadMenu control, this has a z-index of 7000.

Elsewhere in my my page I have a docling area with several panels.

Originally when I undocked one of the panels I saw some controls bleeding through, because of
their higher z-index. My Site Master RadMenu was one of the problem controls, but so were
the Date and Time picker icons in a gris filter I have in part of my page.

So I decided to detect the undocking of my panel and bump its z-index to 7001.

This solved my problem.

Until!!!!!

I was then asked to put a grid in the dock area with filtering on a GridBoundColumn.

This shows a filter control that extends a dropdown when clicked.

Well this dropdown has a z-index less than 7001 so it appears behind my undocked area.

I thought this would be as simple as writting some jQuery in the doc ready function to tweak
the z-index of the dropdown, but either my selector is wrong or something else is preventing
me from affecting the z-index of the div you generate.

Help greatly appreaciated.

Creating a dock with initial parent as RadDockLayout

Hi Telerik,

I noticed something weird going on with my code and I was wondering if there was a way to avoid this scenario.

When I create a RadDock I attach it to a RadDockZone via "RadDockZone.Controls.Add(dock)". This sets the RadDock's Parent to RadDockZone.

When I recreate a RadDock on Page_Init, I allowed the RadDockLayout to move the RadDock into place during RadDockLayout_LoadDockLayout. This sets the RadDock's parent to RadDockLayout.

Thus, this code is necessary and I would like to condense it into something more sensible:

//The dock's parent can change. When it is first created the dock's parent is the DockZone, but after

//recreation the dock's parent is RadDockLayout.

RadPane pane = null;

if (Parent.GetType() == typeof(CormantRadDockZone))

{

pane = Parent.Parent as RadPane;

}

else

{

RadDockLayout dockLayout = Parent as RadDockLayout;

RadDockZone zone = dockLayout.RegisteredZones.Where(registeredZone => registeredZone.ID == DockZoneID).FirstOrDefault();

pane = zone.Parent as RadPane;

}

try

{

Chart.Height = new Unit(pane.Height.Value - 42, UnitType.Pixel);

Chart.Width = new Unit(pane.Width.Value - 22, UnitType.Pixel);

}

catch (Exception ex)

{

Logger.ErrorFormat("Unable to adjust chart dimensions. Reason: {0}", ex.Message);

}

Is my problem clear? How can I avoid this?

RadFilter Exception

Hello,

I am using Sitefinity 3.7 with RadControls (RadFilter and RadGrid). By programmatically I am setting radfilter by giving filter string (eg. ([Val] = 2)) with the following code:

var eq = new RadFilterEqualToFilterExpression<string>(columnName);

RadFilter1.RootGroup.AddExpression(eq);

eq.Value = columnValue;

RadFilter1.RecreateControl();

RadFilter1.FireApplyCommand();

It's working fine when I am using this code on button clicks event and the output is like this code is set the filter (visually) in RadFilter and apply also.

The issue is when I am trying to execute this code on Page_Load under !IsPostBack block, I am getting the following exception:

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Source Error:

Line 418:

Line 419: //displaying the conditions while recreate the control

Line 420: RadFilter1.RecreateControl();

Line 421:

Line 422: RadFilter1.FireApplyCommand();

Source File: c:\Program Files\telerik\Sitefinity3.7\WebSites\MySite\App_Code\clsBAL.cs Line: 420

Stack Trace:

For this I try to use Page_LoadComplete event, but no luck, because we are using the usercontrol as:

public partial class UserControl_xanc_grid : System.Web.UI.UserControl

{

}

So, can you please suggest me how can I set the filter programmatically on page_load (after page load).

Thanks,

Varinder Kumar

Problem in IE with Windows7 skin

Hi,

I've got a strange problem with a colorpicker inside an advancedForm (scheduler).

There's a page called scheduler.aspx with a user control that contains the RadScheduler.
That RadScheduler uses the AdvancedForm, with a colorpicker.

Problem:
Colorpicker has no background (the icon and the pallette) on IE, but it works fine on FireFox.
Our skin is the embedded "Windows7" skin.

When I changed the overall skin to "Default" the colorpicker works fine, but changing only the skin of the colorpicker changes nothing.

Attached a screenshot of the strange colorpicker with no background.

I have the latest version of RadControls installed. (2011.1.519)

Thanks in advance!

RadDatePicker/RadTimePicker Issue

I have a frustrating issue with a RadDatePicker and 2 RadTimePickers.

I have a page that loads multiple instances of a web user control which contains the above said controls.
When the controls load i populate their selected dates from code behind from a database and they show up just fine, when i click my submit button and do a post back though the 3 controls have lost their values. If i set the dates manually on the page and do a post back it works fine, its just when im setting them programmatically that the values arent sticking.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks

how to set radeditor's language

Hi,

I need to set the language of the spellchecker to Dutch and so far I'm unsuccessful.

I've downloaded a file with translations (nl-NL.tdf) from http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-ajax/spell/147971-radspell-dictionaries.aspx
I tried to follow the way they described it here: http://blogs.telerik.com/blogs/posts/10-04-30/localizing_the_radeditor.aspx:

I've planted it into the project's ~/App_Data/RadSpell/ directory.

I've added this in the web.config:

		<httpHandlers>
			<add path="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource.axd" type="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource" verb="*" validate="false"/>
			<add path="Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler.axd" type="Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler" verb="*" validate="false" />
		</httpHandlers>

and another one into <system.webServer>:

		<handlers>
			<add name="Telerik_Web_UI_WebResource_axd" verb="*" preCondition="integratedMode" path="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource.axd" type="Telerik.Web.UI.WebResource"/>
			<add name="Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler" path="Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler.axd" type="Telerik.Web.UI.SpellCheckHandler" verb="*" />
		</handlers>

my radEditor looks like this:

<telerik:RadEditor ID="reEditor" runat="server" SkinID="DefaultSetOfTools" Height="400px" Width="100%" ContentAreaCssFile="~/App_Themes/_generic/RadEditorContent.css">
	<Languages>
		<telerik:SpellCheckerLanguage Code="nl-NL" Title="nl-NL" />
	</Languages>
	<Content></Content>
</telerik:RadEditor>

Still nothing. Could you tell me what am I missing?

RadSpell throws 404 error when Spell Check is clicked

In my project I have a RadTextBox and I am using RadSpell to check the spellings (using US english dictionary). Everything works fine in my development machine, even if I DON'T specify the DictionaryPath for RadSpell control and DON'T ADD the dictionary under RadSpell folder under App_Data folder.

However when I deploy the project to RC or PRODUCTION server (over HTTPS) , as soon as I click on the "Spell Check" button, it throws me a 404 error. I added the DictionaryPath to the RadSpell control ("~/App_Data/RadSpell") and created the path under App_Data folder and placed the dictionary there. But I still get 404 error.

This problem occurs in IE8 and below versions only. It works fine on IE9 and other browsers like Chrome, Firefox.

I tried using Fiddler and it shows javascript error in older versions of IE.

In IE9 when I click the Spell Check button I get a HTTP 302 and then a HTTP 200 OK response. But in IE8 (and previous versions of IE), I get a HTTP 302, then a HTTP 200 OK and then again a HTTP 302 and it errors out. Why does it returns a HTTP 302 after HTTP 200 OK response in IE8 or IE7 or IE6? Let me know ASAP. My release deadline is approaching and I have wasted two days trying to figure out the root cause.

I am using Telerik.Web.UI.dll version 2010.3.1317.35.
